‘Died For All Our Sins’: Kid Rock Points To Jesus And The Gospel During All-American Halftime Show

Country rock star Kid Rock pointed viewers toward Jesus and the Gospel during his set on Sunday as the headliner at the TPUSA All-American Halftime Show.  The “Cowboy” singer delivered on all fronts as the alternative to the NFL’s Super Bowl halftime show that featured Bad Bunny, who performed his entire set in Spanish. The All-American Halftime Show drew millions of viewers eager for something different. Rock opened his set with his viral hit “Bawitdaba” from 1999. But later, the recording artist changed tracks entirely. As his set came to an end, Kid Rock came back out on stage and was reintroduced by his real name, Robert Ritchie.  He said a new verse to Cody Johnson’s song “‘Til You Can’t” came to him one Sunday morning when “something or someone spoke to me.” Ritchie said he believed there was “a verse that still needed to be written for this song.” “There’s a book that’s sitting in your house somewhere that could use some dusting off,” he sang. “There’s a man that died for all our sins hanging from the cross. You can give your life to Jesus and he’ll give you a second chance. ‘Til you can’t.” His performance ended with a tribute to TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated last year.  “If you’re gonna love somebody, hold ’em as long and as strong and as close as you can. Until you can’t,” Rock sang as an image of Kirk showed up on the screen with the caption, “In Remembrance of Charlie Kirk.” There were photos of Kirk and his widow, Erika, followed by the Bible verse Isaiah 6:8: “Here am I, send me.” Brantley Gilbert and other country artists, Gabby Barrett, and Lee Brice also performed at the TPUSA All-American Halftime Show, which outperformed all expectations. Millions of people tuned into the YouTube livestream, Charlie Kirk’s YouTube channel, and other partner sites streaming it, including DailyWire+.  “We’re approaching this show like David and Goliath,” Kid Rock said in a statement before the show, The Daily Wire previously reported. “Competing with the pro football machine and a global pop superstar is almost impossible, or is it? He said he’s having a dance party, wearing a dress, and singing in Spanish? Cool. We plan to play great songs for folks who love America.” Social media lit up with fans celebrating the Super Bowl halftime show alternative, and later with viewers proud of how many people turned up and tuned in.  “All in English, all talented, beautifully done,” one social media response said. “It was truly awesome. Felt so good. And so proud,” another commenter agreed.  “I was proud of my country. Felt blessed for my family. This is what it should be!” a third person agreed, echoing what so many others were saying. As of Monday, the All-American Halftime Show had close to 20 million views on the official TPUSA YouTube channel.
