Book Review: Billy Graham in Quotes

 

Title: Billy Graham in Quotes

Author: Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney

Genre: Inspirational, Christian Living

I am sure that if you are taking the time to read this book review then you must have heard of the legendary Billy Graham.   I chose to review this book because I really admire Reverend Billy Graham.  I grew up in a household where both of my parents listened to Billy Graham's sermons and attended his crusades.  As Billy Graham is nearing the time when he will meet his Savior, his children have been compiling much of work.  

This book is a compilation of Billy Graham's quotes.  He spent his lifetime preaching and serving the Lord.  There is a lot of material!  The book has a very helpful table of contents that organizes the quotes by topic.   This is particularly helpful when you are looking for something to say about a particular topic.   The book contains a variety of topics including difficult and controversial ones such as abortion, addiction, lust, death and war.  The book also contains helpful topics such as forgiveness, grace, strength and success.

 This book is not a narrative.  It is a compilation of quotes.  It is a thought provoking read nonetheless.  It is full of wisdom and love for the Lord. 

I would recommend this book to women and men of all ages.  I think it should be in every home right next to the Bible.  I used the book just yesterday.  I wanted to add a quote and verse to a card that I was sending.  I was able to look up the topic in this book and read Reverend Graham's thoughts on it.  I was able to choose a verse and a quote to add to my message. 

 Disclaimer: I received this book  from the Thomas Nelson Publishing Company through their Book Sneeze Program in exchange for an honest review.
