I made a personal commitment to Christ as a 9-year-old at the 1988 Rochester, NY Crusade.

I will find time to send a note to Rev. Graham over at BillyGraham90.com

  1. Yo, I answered your questions :) How are things going for your family? I saw the big long list of “stop bys” on your way to PA. If you’re ever in Marion I’d love to take ya out for lunch. Any time.

    Stevan,

    Thank you for mentioning Billy Graham’s birthday. I too, gave my life to Christ at a Billy Graham Crusade at age 12. I also listened to his radio show each night before going to sleep as a young teen. He and his ministry were dear to me then and it still is. I also will be sending him a thank you for his birthday.

  3. Stevan,

    Last friday I had the opportunity to have lunch with Gabe Lyons, co-author of unChristian and founder of Catalyst. He mentioned that last weekend He had a chance to meet Billy Graham at his home. He mentioned that it was an honor to sit and chat with him. Rev. Graham went on to say that the spirit is moving in a different way than when he was doing major crusades in the 80-90’s. Today the Spirit is moving like never before in personal relationships, one on one, rather than in stadiums. Was a great lunch and a great night with FEE up here in the Buffalo area.

  4. how long are going to go before you update your blog? What could you possibly be doing that is so important????

    Wierd.

  5. He’s moving, and is completely internet-less.
    Stay tuned for any further developments in the Sheets Saga.

    Dear Mr. Graham,

    My mother would have been 89 this past October 8th. She passed six years ago by choice due to deteriorating health problems. I am now 60 years old the youngest of seven siblings one of which is deceased. Our mother has watched you ever since I can remember from the early 50’s I believe. We got our first black and white TV around 1952.

    We knew with no questions asked whenever there was a Billy Graham program airing on TV a certain night or day, that’s what we would be watching with our mother. Just wanted to let you know I grew up listening to you and you made an impact on our lives. May God continue to bless you as you have blessed us and many others all these precious years of your life. I can’t wait to see your movie. With much respect and love to you and your family.

    Dear Pastor Graham,

    My mom was on your original “team” and always spoke so highly of you. My mom was a wonderful woman of God and inspired me to also give my life to Him. My father was a pastor who also watched all your television broadcasts and attended any of your crusades that were near. I remember watching your TV broadcasts when I was young in my house, and now I watch them as I’m “older” in another house. You have blessed so many people and led so many people to the Lord. I know you don’t want the praise, because you always give the praise to the Lord. May God continue to bless you as you bless others.

  15. Reverend Graham,
    I had the privilege to attend two of your crusades in Minneapolis, many years ago. I listen to you on the radio every time I can. Thank you for everything you done to bring people to our Lord. God bless youl

  16. Happy Birthday #90 Billy Graham. Thank you for all the literature you sent to my grandson over the last 3 years for his prayer basket ministry. You have been a true inspiration to my and my family..

    GOD BLESS YOU
