Ep. 5 | Forgive: It’s What Charlie Would Have Wanted

In this powerful and timely episode of The Christian Business Podcast, Josiah Ryan reflects on the tragic death of Charlie Kirk and what it reveals about faith, forgiveness, and how believers are called to respond in moments of division and pain.

Josiah opens with prayer for our nation, then shares a raw and honest look at his first reaction — anger, frustration, and a desire for revenge — and how God’s Word redirected his heart toward forgiveness. Drawing from scriptures like Matthew 5:43–44, Luke 6:27–28, and Romans 12:17–21, he unpacks why Christians are not called to fight with weapons or vengeance, but to conquer evil with good.

This episode challenges listeners to consider:

• How should we respond to persecution and loss?
• What does true spiritual warfare look like?
• Why forgiveness — even for our enemies — is central to revival in our generation?

Josiah shares why he believes Charlie would have wanted us to forgive, how God can redeem even the darkest situations, and why this moment could be the spark for a new wave of revival across America.
