He has his strengths, but he had his weakness too: swooming over Bill Clinton “and the ladies” and claiming there was no repression that he had seen in the old Soviet Union.

Back when we only had 2 TV Channels, Dad would watch Biily Graham crusades. Typical young one who was so full of himself absolutely hated being in the same room. Fast forward 30 years and I wish he preached every night. Thanks Rev Graham

“He just exudes the presence of God.”

Enough said.
No one has worked harder and been a more passionate servant of the Lord than this man.

I was part of a crowd of over 100,000 gathered to hear him preach at Soldier Field in Chicago, circa 1960. I joined the thousands that came forward. Quite an experience.

I was touched by his words at the “Swearing Out” of the President when Nixon resigned.

Never a hint of scandal in all these years.

BTW, I heard a tribute to Rev. Graham on the radio by George Beverly Shea, his crusade soloist.

He is still alive at 99.

In December 1968, while serving in 3 corps, I was allowed to go and see him at Bien Hoa Airbase. I remember the first thing he said as he came out from behind the curtin, he looked twice and closed the curtin and said he was sorry but Bon Hope and the girls were gone and he was the only one left. I never want to forget him and what he has done for believers in our Military over seas. He brought a since of peace to all that listened and a smile with his wit. May God Bless Him, His Effort and his Family. Op.

Billy Graham is a liberal religious democrat.
