This school shooting unfolded almost simultaneously with the shooting of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk in neighboring Utah.
Two horrific attacks. Two different states. The same moment in time.
It is tempting to treat these as separate tragedies. But they point to something deeper, which is the very real presence of Satan among people who have abandoned God.
America is stricken by evil, and it is spreading.
We are watching a country consumed by violence, spiritual decay, and division.
Until America humbles itself before God, we will see blood on our streets, in our schools, and at political events. Only He can cure a nation plagued by a mind virus.
