Erika Kirk says her prayers stayed steady after her husband’s death. She spoke on “Fox News Sunday” about grief, faith, and leading Turning Point USA.

How her talks with God changed

First, Erika said her conversations with God feel much the same. She said she asks God to use her, heal her heart, and guide her. She also asks for people who can help her through pain. Erika took over Turning Point USA after Charlie Kirk was killed in September.

Why faith shaped their work

Next, Erika said she and Charlie believed life had a bigger purpose. She said that shared belief helped drive what Charlie built. Before his death, she hosted a “Midweek Rise Up” podcast about religion. She now says she seeks God’s will while running the group.

Protecting her children’s privacy

Also, Erika said she avoids taking her two young children to full church services. She said she worries they could become a public spectacle. She wants to protect their childhood and keep parts of life private. She said she does not want photos of them spread online.

Finally, Erika urged people who want stronger faith to buy a Bible. She also said they should surround themselves with Bible-believing Christians. She encouraged them to “dive straight in.”
