Grace




Don Henley asked, "How can love survive in such a graceless age?" Billy and Ruth must have found that answer.

The truth is, this age, though it is passing away, is not graceless. God extends grace, but we must respond. Apparently these two responded to God's grace, over and over again.

If we look, we can see signs of that grace everywhere. The Grahams are that kind of sign.

Kim,

I was visiting the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College on Monday...and it brought tears to my eyes...again.

Ruth Graham was one of my heroes in life. She will be sorely missed for a long time.

I love that photo of them in their latter years together.
Such a grand couple.
I was just watching the dedication of the library a couple of weeks ago on CSPAN. Very inspiring.
I was hoping to see somthing about Ruth Graham from you.

They were an inspiration to so many.One of the only representatives of christians who never seemed to have negative press. I read some of her poetry this week and was inspired by the strength Ruth held. Many have strength, some have grace, but few have it combined like she did.
