As we approach late October, various cultural traditions emerge in communities across the United States. Among them, Dia de Muertos (Day of the Dead) stands out, celebrated with vibrant colors, marigolds, and a deep reverence for those who have gone before us. It’s easy to see this Mexican holiday as just a cultural event, yet for believers, it points to something greater: remembering those who came before us, giving thanks for God’s faithfulness, and celebrating our shared life in Christ.

The sudden and violent loss of Christian leader Charlie Kirk confronts the church with deep grief and urgent questions. This article offers a biblical response by asking: Who is God, and who is Jesus? Scripture affirms that God is both sovereign and near, redeeming evil for good and comforting the brokenhearted. Jesus, acquainted with sorrow, shows us how to endure suffering with prayer, compassion, justice, humility, and love. In light of this hope, Christians are called to grieve honestly, love boldly, and continue Christ’s mission with steadfast faith.

Avoid all choices that might bring discomfort, trouble, difficulty, pain, or suffering. Add this cultural force to our natural desire for immediate gratification and fleeting pleasures, and the combined power to undermine the superior satisfaction of the soul in the glory of God through suffering is huge."
