Pastor Miles to Newsmax: Kirk Understood ‘Pagan Threat’ in US ‘Better Than Anybody’

Pastor Lucas Miles, senior director of Turning Point USA Faith and author of “Pagan Threat,” told Newsmax Wednesday that slain conservative leader Charlie Kirk was a “no-brainer” to write the foreword for his book because he understood the threats facing America “better than anybody.”

“Charlie was always everyone’s biggest cheerleader,” Miles said on “Wake Up America.” “He loved seeing the people around him that he cared about be successful, get opportunities, be able to be pushed in the forefront. He was very openhanded and generous with his platform. I’ve had the opportunity to work for Charlie for about the last year and a half. It’s been an honor in my life.”

“Charlie was a no-brainer to ask to do this foreword,” he said. “He understood the pagan threat and, really, the threats of this nation better than anybody. It’s really those threats that took his life. Charlie knew that there was a risk every single day that he went out, but yet, his determination to reach this generation — not only with conservative principles but most importantly the Gospel — it drove him beyond any sort of fear of personal peril.”
