In a mission that
lasted 60 years, Rev. Billy Graham preached in his soft-spoken Southern style
to more than 210 million people in 185 countries─more than anyone else─and
reached hundreds of millions more through his radio and television ministry.
The charismatic
evangelist’s counsel had been sought out by presidents from Harry S. Truman to
Barack Obama.
In 1983, President
Reagan gave Graham the Presidential Medal of Freedom, America’s highest
civilian honor. When the Billy Graham Museum and Library was dedicated in 2007
in Charlotte, North Carolina former presidents George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Carter
and Bill Clinton attended.
Rev. Graham was
regularly listed by the Gallup organization as one of the Ten Most Admired Men
in the World, whom it described as the dominant figure in that poll since 1948
making an unparalleled 46th appearance and 39th consecutive appearance.
"My home is in
Heaven. I'm just traveling through this world."
Rev. Billy Graham was a
servant of God and brought millions to Christ through his example of compassion
and love. He said he missed his wife, Ruth, and he missed Heaven. Now he has
crossed over for his great reunion. May we always remember his legacy and follow
his passion for Christ.
