Carol Perkins: Billy Graham and the salvation of Bill Wilson The death of Billy Graham evokes memories of the evangelist and profession of faith in Christ by an important Edmonton, KY business man. Next earlier column: Carol Perkins: Always the same girl - 19 or 90 By Carol Perkins The world is now celebrating the life of Rev. Billy Graham and mourning his passing. I was one of those millions who planned my TV time around one of his many Crusades. I watched as a young girl and then later with Guy. What drew thousands to stadiums around the world? His message and his style of presenting God's word? What I liked was his simplicity. Some ministers make the journey to Christ sound very difficult, but not Billy Graham. "God loves you. He will forgive you of your sins right now." He never talked about hearing voices or lightning bolt moments. He didn't dwell on HOW you got there but focused on how easy the trip was to Jesus. Those who filed down out of the stands might have been waiting all their lives to hear that. So many times we hear about the wrath rather than the love.
