May God continue to raise up men who can effectively bring the gospel to the world.
I thank God for Billy Graham's faithfulness to preach the Gospel, and for his personal integrity. I also thank God that I was privileged to hear him preach in person. How the Holy Spirit moved when that man simply and clearly preached the Word of God. Please raise up another leader like him for your church, Lord.
Interestingly, that link doesn't find all books by Billy Graham.

Requiem aeternam dona ei Domine, et lux in perpetua luceat ei. Requiescat in pace.
That's a great loss to millions around the world. RIP Billy Graham.
He had such a significant impact on this past generation. He will be greatly missed but his memory and impact will go on!
I grew up watching Billy Graham preach, and it made such a big impact on my life. All of the movies that His association produced impacted my life as well. Billy Graham was a giant of a man in the Faith of God, and preached the Gospel of Christ, so that even a child could understand it.
Mr. Graham, you are at home with your Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. I can hear Jesus saying right now to you "Well done, thou good and faithful servant."
A lot of people have heard of him and a lot of people heard him. I don't think that mattered to him. If they listened and responded he might see them again. That's all that matters.
All of the movies that His association produced impacted my life as well.
I became a Christian by going to see Time to Run.
I feel like I have lost a parent. I was saved at a Billy Graham Crusade in 1961 and have thanked God ever since for using Billy Graham to bring me the gospel message that day.
RIP Billy. Along the above lines he is my grandparent :-)
I've only read a few of his books, but have enjoyed them. I was wondering what book of Billy Graham's has been most helpful/impactful for people.
I read Nearing Home several years ago and really liked it. I just wish it was available in Logos.
I doubt we will soon see another person who was as much of a Christian statesman as Billy Graham. He made some mistakes, but they were few and far between. He elevated respect for evangelical Christianity in the United States for better than four decades. He and the BGEA made use of TV as it grew to dominate America media, and they were among the first to produce Christian movies, arguably the best at it at the time. Even up to the last years of his life his heart was on the lost and reaching them. He leaves and amazing legacy.
I am sure he heard the words, "Well done though good and faithful servant" as he entered the courts of heaven.
Wow, I am at a loss for words. He was a major part of my personal life experiences, hearing him on TV proclaiming the gospel since 1970.
Praise the Lord for Graham's life and impact!
I bet he has a lot of people up there greeting him!
I was wondering what book of Billy Graham's has been most helpful/impactful for people.
The most impactful for me was Where I Am. It was the last book my mother and I read together as it was published Sept. 29, 2015 and she went to her Lord and Savior Feb. 20, 2016.
Funny, I never related to the man. B4 I was a Christian, I ''knew'' I did not need him. After I became a Christian, I watched parts of a few. The stadium concept seemed too large for me; I could feel myself moving back in my chair, so I knew to shut the tv off. To each his own.
Thanks - I'll take a look at it.
To each his own.
I remember my future spouse and I snuck to see him on a Sunday afternoon. It was touch and go, if we'd be recognized and get nailed. Luckily Sunday night services included prayer for any misdeeds since Sunday morning.
We also visited the 18th hole where he decided his future. But not the small island where he practiced sermons. Maybe it was washed out during a hurricane.
I hope all goes well with his kids. Even though his destination is no surprise, his absence must be an emptiness.
Graham hit Australia in 1959. Aussies fell in love with his film star looks and celebrity status and came to hear him in droves. His 1959 Melbourne crusade still holds the record for the largest ever audience at Australia's premier sports stadium, the MCG (130,000). The impact of those huge events was as much in the mobilization of local churches - door to door canvasing - valuable contacts made - people invited into local fellowships. I took the opportunity to get born (not born again) the Saturday night Graham spoke in Perth which meant my dad had to rush away from his role as a crusade counsellor (which he'd spent weeks training for) to attend me and my mum. There are echoes of the impact of Graham's campaign in Australian literature - the Lamb family in Tim Winton's famous novel Cloud Street came to faith through the evangelistic stadium ministry of "some Yank".
