I find it interesting that the headline describes him as a "televangelist." I don't watch much tv, but I don't believe Franklin Graham is in the same category as, say, Benny Hinn.

Franklin Graham seems to be more of a doer of good works, not a tv personality. To the extent he's on television, it's usually because he's being interviewed by a news personality about some good project his ministry is organizing.

Correct

His ministry involves speaking out against sin, and helping others in need around the world, and doing so with boots on the ground - not in front of a camera, on some fake television set.

I too find it strange that Franklin is considered a “televangelist” he is anything but. I happen to live in the Vancouver outskirts area and my church would welcome Franklin Graham with open arms as he teaches the gospel and may the chips fall where they may. Too often the Vancouver mainstream churches here are all about feeling good without doing any teaching. All the Vancouver churches cater to the homosexuals after all we must have one of the largest Homosexual parades in north america. It is very much like SF that way. Vancouver is one thing but the evangelical church is growing dramatically in the surrounding areas.

Graham doesn’t have a tv program. The only time he appears on tv is as a guest on someone else’s program, or during a news broadcast of one of his prayer meetings. He is currently holding prayers meetings in every state at the state capital buildings to pray for the nation.
He is not a televangelist.

You’re right.

He’s NOT a televangelist.
