Billy Graham, God’s Ambassador

Reading God’s Ambassador is like browsing through Billy Graham’s personal scrapbook. It is a collection of powerful pictures depicting Billy’s life and ministry accented with newspaper clippings and quotes from Billy and Ruth and their family, friends, and admirers. This pictorial history of an astonishing and fervently faithful man is accompanied by his story in words-from his birth in rural North Carolina, to his decision to commit his life to Christ at age seventeen, to the beginning of his unprecedented ministry that has touched millions of people on every continent, to his private family life and his relationships with each president from Harry Truman to George W. Bush-the reader is left with the feeling that they now know the Reverend Billy Graham. The photos are from the official archive of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association and most were shot by Graham’s long-time chief photographer Russ Busby. This is an updated and more managebly sized edition of a popular Time-Life coffee-table book that has gone out of print.
