Good Things from Billy Graham


I have been a Billy Graham fan all my life. I was saved at Lieghton Ford Crusade. He was a Graham associate. I attended several Billy Graham events and worked at a counselor in a few. What some do not realize is that Billy and his namesake the Billy Graham Evangelistic Organization are still quite active and alive. Recently I found 106.9 FM The Light WMIT of the Blue Ridge Broadcasting. On their website they acknowledge they are a Billy Graham ministry. They also seem to quietly be helping a station in the Middle East that is a satellite station. This station' stream can be found at http://www.brb.org They are an HD station. They are supposed to have a youth oriented station called “the edge.” I have yet to find a stream or a website for it. The Light is a good mix of top contemporary music and ministry. They give you several ways to listen on the net with a windows player, apple or other ways.

Also this time of year Billy's group releases a video special. His “My Hope America” special the “Cross” recorded 100,000 decisions. It played on some broadcasting outlets and released as low cost DVD that folks can play for neighbors or give away. That year folks wondered out loud if that was going to be Billy's last message. Its a powerful video that presents the Gospel in a beautiful way. On www.myhopeamerica.org or https://myhopewithbillygraham.org/ you can get one free video of this year's DVD “Heaven.” The church I pastor, will show “Heaven” around Billy's birthday on November 7th. I hope people will want to use it in other ways too. I hope I will use it to share the Gospel of Christ.
