The wisdom and guidance he has offered the world are captured inBilly Graham Speaks, a unique portrait of the reverend in his ownwords-culled from sermons, newscasts, articles, and interviews.Graham talks about everything from marriage, children, and faith,to religious tolerance, leadership, and integrity, to popes,presidents, and ordinary people. He reflects on his life as anevangelist who has traveled the world and witnessed some of thiscentury's milestone events, including the advent of racialintegration in the South, the fall of Communism, and the social andpolitical struggles in Northern Ireland and South Africa. He lookswithin to confront his own feelings of self-doubt and discuss hisundying belief in God that has been central to his life for morethan three quarters of a century.
