I don't know Billy Graham before, but i usually read him in many literatures. i had known him through their discussions and descriptions. however, i got to know him even more when he was preaching in one of the tv networks abroad. and then it became clear to me who he was: a man of faith. Billy Graham's life then startled me that i researched about him. and i learned and discovered many things in his life. and one of that is that he came from a not a well known family and state. however, what inspires me most is his confession and boldness of his faith, that he believe in JESUS CHRIST as the one living and true GOD. and so, he dedicated his life into traveling around the world to preach JESUS, that only JESUS can bring peace and answers and contentment and most of all our (and your) salvation when we will leave this earthly bodies. he is daring in going into different countries, communist or even non-Christian country. he encouraged me to put and continue to believe to JESUS CHRIST. even to his old age, he is still living as to what he believed. he never run out of energy to share the gospel to the whole world. Billy Graham is an icon!

AMEN! billy grew up here in my hometown of charlotte if i'm not mistaken... and even those 20 years i was a wiccan and didn't like christians one bit... i still respected and admired that man. and now that i'm a christian, i just love him to pieces. i hate he lost his beloved wife, but we all know she went home and he'll be along shortly to be with her. he's an amazing human being... if we could all be half of what he is, this world would be amazing! :-D
