'I'm not angry with God': 5 highlights from Erika Kirk's Fox News interview
3. Kirk discusses how she met her husband, his transformation after they got married
The widow told the story about how she first met her husband when she applied for a job at his advocacy organization, Turning Point USA. The interview, which transformed into a much longer conversation about life and philosophy, finished with the late activist telling his future wife that he did not want to hire her, but rather that he wanted to date her.
"I literally had to walk home to process everything that just happened because again, the Lord knew that I needed a man that was going to be so assertive, not play games, not say 'yeah, let's just be friends and see how it goes,'" she added. "I, prior to that, was praying that … if he was to be my future husband, that the Lord would make it so clear that I would have such a peace about it."
Kirk also elaborated on her husband's transformation after they got married and he became a father.
"When you become a parent, it changes you. When you become a husband or a wife, it changes you," she maintained. "Being on the altar and making a covenant with the Lord and saying 'This is my person,' it changes you. You become one. Everything becomes one. Nothing is separated."
Kirk agreed with Watters' assessment that her late husband "became more tranquil as he grew older." She described the personality change as "a huge testament to his faith because he realized more and more, this is not about Charlie Kirk."
