USA Today Bestseller List. Many have written about Billy Graham, the evangelist. This is the first book about Billy Graham, the father, written from the perspective of a son who knew him best. As a beloved evangelist and a respected man of God, Billy Graham’s stated purpose in life never wavered: to help people find a personal relationship with God through a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. This was a calling that only increased over time, and Billy embraced it fully throughout his active ministry and beyond. Yet Billy pursued his life’s work, as many men do, amid a similarly significant calling to be a loving husband and father. While most people knew Billy Graham as America’s pastor, Franklin Graham knew him in a different way, as a dad. And while present and future generations will come to their own conclusions about Billy Graham and the legacy that his commitment to Christ has left behind, no one can speak more insightfully or authoritatively on that subject than a son who grew up in the shadow of his father’s life and the examples of his father’s love. This vulnerable book is a look at both Billy Graham the evangelist and Billy Graham the father, and the impact he had on a son who walked in his father’s steps while also becoming his own man, leading ministries around the world, all of it based on the foundational lessons his father taught him. “My father left behind a testimony to God,” says Franklin, “a legacy not buried in a grave but still pointing people to a heaven-bound destiny. The Lord will say to my father, and to all who served Him obediently, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant’ [Matthew 25:21].”

In days of religious confusion and cultural relativism, Franklin Graham reminds us that there are absolutes in the kingdom of God.

This beautiful book weaves the moving, God-saturated story of the ministry’s beginning with the soul-stirring, Christ exalting stories of lives that have been forever changed by a simple shoebox. Operation Christmas Child is filled with full-color photos of children whose smiles help tell what is a thoroughly hopeful story.

In the parable of the sower, Jesus foretold all the ways the world would try to reject God''s Word. Rocks will be thrown at the righteous, dirty birds will try to steal your peace and assurance, and briars will try to choke out the clear truth with noise and confusion. Today, the rocks are hardened hearts that have turned from God, the dirty birds are enemies of the Gospel dispelling negative influences, and the briars are the media channels seeking to distract, confuse, and alarm. Satan uses these threats to scorch out, choke out, and steal away God''s Word. Yet God is unchangeable and infallible. His Word is the seed that produces truthfulness, holiness, and obedience-and we are called to plant it, nurture it, and tend it in order to have a fruitful harvest.

The familiar phrase "it''s who you know" is true for everyone; knowing the right people can make a difference in obtaining privileges, services, or assistance in daily life. However, not everyone has access to those in power here on earth. And no matter how many important people we might know, at some point we will not be acquainted with a "key person" who could help us in some way. The good news is that each of us can have continuous, personal access to the most important person alive today! By claiming the forgiveness of God purchased through the sinless life, death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, everyone can be on a first-name basis and have a personal relationship with the most important person who has ever existed. It''s Who You Know is an appealing, easy-to-read booklet that leads readers from the comfort, healing, and freedom available in the Name of Jesus to the ultimate conclusion-salvation and an intimate relationship with Jesus.

Graham has created a poignant, 31-day devotional to remind Christians about their purpose in this life. This book gives readers step-by-step instruction and daily inspiration for following in Jesus'' footsteps.

Billy Graham, el amado evangelista y respetado hombre de Dios, nunca dudó de su propósito en la vida: ayudar a las personas a tener una relación personal con Dios a través del conocimiento salvador de Jesucristo. Ese fue un llamado que creció cada vez más en intensidad y Billy lo aceptó por completo durante su ministerio activo y más allá de este. No obstante, al igual que muchos otros hombres, él se dedicó también al llamado igualmente valioso de ser un esposo y padre amoroso. Aunque la mayoría de la gente conocía a Billy Graham como una leyenda viviente, Frankin Graham lo conoció como su papá. Y aunque las generaciones actuales y futuras llegarán a sus propias conclusiones acerca de Billy Graham y el legado de su entrega a Cristo, nadie puede abordar el tema con más detalles y con toda la seriedad del caso que un hijo que se crio a la sombra de la vida de su padre y del ejemplo de su amor. «Mi padre dejó un testimonio de Dios», explica Franklin, «y una herencia que no quedará enterrada en una tumba, sino que seguirá guiando a la gente a su destino celestial. El Señor le dirá a él y a todos los que le sirven con obediencia: “Bien, buen siervo y fiel” (Mateo 25.21)». Este libro relata la notable vida de Billy no como la historia de un gigante espiritual, sino de la forma en que Franklin siempre lo ha visto: a través de los ojos de su padre. X
