Thanks for this. I have not read anyone saying whether Rev. Graham still has a speaking voice of much resonance. Many of my favorite singers sort of lose their public voice as they approach the advanced years. Was he more or less whispering? I don’t have a TV.

Saw him at the Oakland Coliseum when I was 12.

Never forgot it.

Alvin Dark was the manager of the Oakland A’s and a member of our church.

He got us tkts to see Mr. Graham and I thank him.

From what I have read about him over the years. He seems to be a good man and has done many good works. Happy birthday Mr. Graham

I went to several of his meetings in Montreat. Met him, shook his hand at one.
Dynamic mountain of a man.

I sang in the Crusade Choir in Boston in the early 80’s. It was at Nickerson Field in Boston University (The old Boston Braves Field) and I will never forget the experience! Cliff Barrows was the Choir Director.

Happy Birthday, Rev Graham!

Billy Graham just preached the Gospel. No fancy oratorial techniques, no flowery language, just the preached the Good News. Multitudes came to those meetings to hear the Gospel, and many were saved.

Our Lord gives out gifts to His servants, and one of them is the gift of evangelist. I believe Bro. Graham is one such gifted person.

I wonder if he got a call from Barry and the Wookie?
