For well over fifty years, Reverend Billy Graham
has preached the Gospel to millions of people around the world.
Whether ministering to world leaders or to African bushmen, his
mission has always been simple: To spread the word of God. And he
has. Now age eighty-four, his pace may be somewhat slower, but true
to his calling, Graham remains an integral part of his highly active
ministry. Here, then, is an inside and personal view of a day in
Billy Graham's very full life--a day filled with hectic meetings,
unexpected phone calls, and numerous appointments, as well as stolen
moments of quiet for prayer and contemplation. Included, too, is
a joyous hour or two upon a stage in which the reverend earnestly
speaks to thousands of people about God, love, and salvation through
faith.
A Day in the Life of Billy Graham
takes us on a journey through time and distance to discover so much
about this fascinating man. We learn about his childhood, his past
Crusades, and his relationships with presidents, as well as his
experiences in the Holy Land. We enjoy a unique glimpse into the
life of one of Christendom's most beloved and enduring evangelists.
And throughout, we are witness to the power of God that propels
Billy Graham's mission forward and upward.
Deborah
Hart Strober was born in Newark, New
Jersey, into a family of musicians and journalists. Beginning in
the late 1950s, she performed professionally as Deborah Hart in
musical theater. In the late 1970s, Ms. Strober was hired by the
New York Jewish Week to write a column "Notes on Music."
But with a keen interest in politics and international affairs,
she soon won general reporting assignments in New York, Lebanon,
and Israel.
Gerald
S. Strober was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Mr.
Strober served on the national staff of the American Jewish Committee,
where he coordinated the organization's relations with the evangelical
Christian community. He is the author of American Jews: Community
in Crisis, and the co-author of Religion and the New Majority.
The Strobers are co-authors of
"Let Us Begin Anew:" An Oral History of the Kennedy Presidency;
Nixon: An Oral History of His Presidency; Reagan: The Man and His
Presidency; and The Monarchy: An Oral Biography of Elizabeth
II.
