Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a wonderful, concise sampling of the famous preacher’s words of spiritual wisdom. On “Life,” Dr. Graham shares “We must learn to live triumphantly amid the traumas and pressures we face daily.” (214) Concerning “The World,” he advises “The world judges the Christian by his life, not by his belief.” (374)
The book is arranged in topical sections including “Abortion,” Christianity,” “Marriage,” “Morals,” “Sin,” and many more. This makes it easy and quick to find Dr. Graham’s comments on a particular subject or problem. End numbers refer the reader to a “Notes” section which lists the date and occasion of each quotation.
This world can never hear enough from Billy Graham. His strong testimony has been a beacon to world leaders and corporate CEOs, as well as to millions who, for many years, have filed into large arenas and football stadiums to hear his Biblical wisdom. His ministry continues now in Billy Graham in Quotes. This is a volume fit for private meditation, sermon preparation and reference. But it is mostly a volume to be treasured as words fitly spoken by a true man of God. I highly recommend this book.
I received a complimentary review copy of this book from publisher Thomas Nelson. The opinions in this review are my own; I was not required to write a positive analysis.
