Conservative commentator Benny Johnson said the United States is witnessing a significant cultural and political shift driven by younger generations who are increasingly embracing faith, family, and conservative values, crediting Charlie Kirk with playing a central role in that transformation.
In a statement discussing recent trends among young Americans, Johnson said a unified political movement has emerged alongside what he described as an unprecedented revival of Christianity among the nation’s youth.
“Who put together the most powerful political movement and the most powerful unified movement in American history, and is having incredible results,” Johnson said.
He pointed to personal connections as part of that broader cultural moment, adding, “That woman there is talking about her children, you are a mother. I’m a father.”
Johnson said current data and social trends show younger Americans practicing religion at higher rates than previous generations, a development he said has no historical precedent.
“Right now in America, we are witnessing a miracle,” Johnson said.
“This generation, the young generation, believes in God and is going to church at higher rates than their parents. That’s never happened before in the history of all civilization. That is incredible.”

Johnson also highlighted political changes among young men, saying their ideological leanings and priorities reflect a sharp break from trends seen in prior decades.
“Young men are more right wing than they have ever been measured,” Johnson said.
He said those shifts are especially evident among young men who supported President Donald Trump, noting that their priorities extend beyond politics.
“And most importantly, young men who voted for Trump, their number one priority Kaylee, is starting families and having children,” Johnson said.
Johnson attributed that focus on family and faith to the influence of Charlie Kirk, whom he said consistently emphasized those values.
“That’s what Charlie was always preaching about, because that’s God’s first command to us, go be fruitful and multiply,” Johnson said.
“That’s what God says in the book of Genesis to Adam.”
According to Johnson, Kirk’s message resonated with young men by grounding politics and personal choices in Christian belief and purpose.
“And young men, because they’ve been Christ centered in their life through Charlie Kirk and his legacy,” Johnson said.
Johnson said Kirk’s life and death reinforced the credibility of his message, particularly his emphasis on truth.
“And they saw Charlie lived for and died for the truth,” Johnson said. “No man dies for a lie. Charlie died for the truth.”
Johnson concluded by describing what he said was the core of Kirk’s message to young Americans.
“And that truth was God wants you to be happy,” Johnson said. “God wants you to be joyous. Fall in love, get married, have children, and that’s the legacy of Charlie Kirk.”
