Leading conservative voices will honor Charlie Kirk, defend truth at Liberty University’s Freedom Uncensored summit
October 20, 2025 : By - Office of Communications & Public Engagement
Actress Leigh-Allyn Baker, pastor and senior director of TPUSA Faith Lucas Miles, former ESPN host Sage Steele, and Daily Wire’s Isabel Brown are among the nationally recognized influencers slated to speak at this year’s Freedom Uncensored summit, held Oct. 24-25 at Liberty University’s Center for Music and the Worship Arts, Concert Hall.
Liberty’s Standing for Freedom Center has hosted the event since 2020, offering a rallying point for conservative Christians to speak truth and bring salt and light into an age of confusion and compromise. This year’s event carries special significance following the tragic assassination of Charlie Kirk on Sept. 10. Kirk was instrumental in the founding of the Standing for Freedom Center and was scheduled to be the keynote speaker at this year’s event.
“The Freedom Center was born out of the vision of Liberty University’s founder, Dr. Jerry Falwell, and the conviction of Charlie Kirk, who recognized that the church in America was losing its voice in the public square,” said Ryan Helfenbein, executive director for the Standing for Freedom Center. “Charlie understood that defending freedom is not just a political duty but a spiritual calling, and that true cultural renewal begins with revival. His courage and faithfulness continue to inspire us to train the next generation to stand boldly for truth and engage the world without fear. And that’s what this summit, Freedom Uncensored, is all about.”
The two-day event includes a dinner gala featuring Steele and CNN’s Scott Jennings and numerous speeches and panel presentations, including a panel on Gen Z with nationally recognized voices committed to faith and liberty.
Other special guests include U.S. Army veteran and Virginia Del. Nick Freitas; Head Pastor of Echo Church in Sydney, Australia, Andrew Sedra; and founder of White Rose Resistance (the fastest-growing pro-life ministry in America) Seth Gruber. (See more confirmed speakers below).
Registration is required. Discounted tickets are available for military, students, faculty, and staff.
