    Just wanted to pay tribute to Dr. Billy Graham. He retired and is now enjoying full benefits. God Bless him.
    If anyone is a reader his son Franklin's life story "Rebel with a cause" is a good read.

    "Graham would one day preach the Christian gospel to as many as 215 million people in live audiences over 185 countries. Graham has been credited with preaching to more individuals than anyone else in history, not counting the additional millions he has addressed through radio, television and the written word."

    "He has been rated by the Gallup organization as "One of the Ten Most Admired Men in the World" a staggering 51 times."

    Good and faithful is right
    God speed, Billy.

    I'll never forget the first time I saw or even heard of Billy. One summer I got to stay a week with an aunt and uncle and they had a television but we didn't at home. Aunt was excited because Billy was going to be on tv. I remember sitting still and watching the whole thing, which was quite an accomplishment for that young lad at the time. I was impressed.

    Listened to Sirius 145 today.....Billy Graham tribute station. Not sure how long they will have this up and running but was pretty darn good to hear some of his messages and his life journeys

    I normally listen to 63 The Message and they had mentioned it is how I heard about it.

    I feel I would be truly blessed someday to see his place in heaven... I'm sure it will be a something so special that would be hard for us to imagine....

    I believe Branham had some pretty amazing prophesies that he shared that have proven true if I am thinking correctly
