AMERICA’S PASTOR BILLY GRAHAM HAS DIED

I remember sitting with my parents when I was young and watching the Billy Graham Crusades on TV. Back then all I knew was that this preacher was preempting my favorite TV shows. Still, I was amazed by how many people would be at his crusades. Over the years Billy Graham brought so many people to Christ and lived an example of how a Christian should live their life. He was a kind and gentle man but a strong and fierce fighter for the Lord. It is a sad day in the world. And I wonder has the world, that is already struggling to find it’s way, lost it’s great moral compass. Billy Graham has passed at the age of 99. Now we ask…who will be the world’s next Billy Graham?
