Charlie Kirk's New Book Rockets to Top of Bestseller List on Day 1 - Publisher Scrambles to Print More Copies
The Western Journal ^ | 10DEC2025 | Jack Davis

Posted on 12/10/2025 10:09:23 AM PST by Tom Tetroxide

Charlie Kirk’s new book has become such a popular title that on its publication day, hardcover editions had sold out after the book rocketed to the top spot on Amazon’s list of bestsellers.

“Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life” appeared Tuesday and hit the top of the Amazon Top 100 bestseller list before being listed as temporarily out of stock, according to The Wall Street Journal.

The book was still available through other sellers.

Winning Team Publishing printed 200,000 copies and will be printing more, a representative of the company said, indicating that about 60,000 copies were sold on Amazon alone.

President Donald Trump said on Truth Social that the book is an important read.

“One month before a monster took him away from us, the Great Charlie Kirk finished his final Book, ‘Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life.’ As Charlie often said, ‘If I’m to be known for anything, I want to be known for being courageous for my Faith,’” Trump wrote.

I loved what Charlie Kirk was doing, and rest is an integral part of the Gospel of the Grace of Christ.

However...

Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
Colossians 2:16-17.

The Orthodox Church honors the Saturday Sabbath via the Holy Saturday liturgy, and by holding Vespers on Saturday evening.

Sunday is the Lord’s Day—the day of Resurrection. It is thus the day for Divine Liturgy, Holy Communion, post-liturgy coffee hours or lunches, and family dinners. That is our day of rest!

Before Amazon took off the brick and mortar book stores used to have sabotage against any right of center books. Borders was caught when an employee admitted to damaging the incoming books and setting them up for shipments back to the publishers, knowing the upcoming election would pass without any available. “Oops, the publisher should be more careful. Look at that. A gash on some pages.”

This was on Rush and a few other shows.

His books used to be shelved in the cookbooks area by staff.

I ordered the book just after his murder. I wonder how that is counted.

Huh. Maybe they deserved to lose out to Amazon.

A first print run of 200,000 copies.

And they’re already printing more...

That is impressive.

From a couple of years ago, some numbers for context...

How Many Copies Does it Take to Become a “Bestselling” Book?

Per the above, on printed frontlist titles and 10 top publishers in 2022 ...

0.4% or 163 books sold 100,000 copies or more

BTW, I just checked a number of public library systems, small to large.

I haven’t found one yet that has ordered this book.

The Shabbatt is Sunday, but a Sabbath can be taken any day of the week.
