Billy Graham in Quotes





This book of quotes taken directly from writings (from 1947 to 2010) of Billy Graham's is one I plan to keep close by. The pages are like a river flowing from one place to the next of wise sayings and truth filled thoughts.

The book is organized with 389 topics and each gathering of quotes starts off with a relevant Scripture. One would think a big book of just quotes would be blah or boring but the heart of a man all out for God shines through. I found myself reading straight through some times as well as grabbing the book to look up specific subjects in others.
This book is right on as a resource for sharing Bible drenched thoughts in correspondence, for personal use, in writing and more.

This quote from page 68 on Comfort shows a glimpse of what the book holds:
"We should go to no place that we would not go in His presence.
But He is not with us just to judge or condemn us;
He is near to comfort, protect, guide, encourage,
Strengthen, cleanse and help."

Thomas Nelson sent me this book free of charge in exchange for an honest review.
