I met Billy Graham on several occasions...several times when he was a guest at one of the churches I went to in the late 70s to late 80s... He was definitely the most influential person that I have met to this date...and I have to thank him for that... Right now words can't really do justice here...but he was really the true star of Screen...Stage...television and Heaven... Today...he was promoted to glory...

I love that he stayed on message throughout his life, especially when evangelicals today decide to wade into many issues that are very controversial:
But in his later years, Mr. Graham kept his distance from the evangelical political movement he had helped engender, refusing to endorse candidates and avoiding the volatile issues dear to religious conservatives.
“If I get on these other subjects, it divides the audience on an issue that is not the issue I’m promoting,” he said in an interview at his home in North Carolina in 2005 while preparing for his last American crusade, in New York City. “I’m just promoting the Gospel.”
