God Speaks His Word Straight Into The Hearts Of Men And Women. The Word Of God Is Alive And Active Today In The Lives Of Millions.

With the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ as his singular focus, Billy Graham faithfully, passionately, and unapologetically preached God’s Word for more than seventy years. At the age of ninety-two, during an exclusive Fox News interview in 2010, Dr. Graham told Greta van Susteren, “I have a tremendous amount of hope for the future because of Jesus Christ.”

In this stunning collection of quotes by Billy Graham comes a historic anthology covering seven decades of ministry, drawing from both his published and personal works. These pages are filled with hope, truth, and redemption and seek the hearts of a lost people who need God now more than ever.

Today we are putting our hopes in materialism, in technological progress, and in freedom from moral absolutes. They have all failed. They have failed because they have been powerless to change the human heart.

Join Billy Graham as he seeks to bring God’s Word to the heart of daily life. Reconnect and be drawn like never before. “Hearing Billy Graham express hope for the world gives me hope that my life can be worthwhile,” comments one twenty-two-year-old. Arranged topically for easy reference, Billy Graham in Quotes provides insight on more than one hundred topics anchored in Scripture. This gifted evangelist takes the focus off of the messenger and shines the Light on the Message of God’s Word.

Earth’s troubles fade in the light of heaven’s hope.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh..... Disclosure of Material Connection: I purchased the hardcover copy of the book at Amazon and received the electronic book Billy Graham in Quotes free from Thomas Nelson as part of their blogger review program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's 16 CFR, Part 255: "Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising."

Quotes that Develop Convictions

This massive collection of quotes is a treasure chest of wisdom and wit from one of America's most revered preachers and one of the most recognizable evangelical figures in this century. It covers topics from A to Z (Y to be exact). It touches on a wide variety of subjects, ranging from abortion to addiction; Christian living to missions; personal character and political leadership; young and old; and many more topics. All of these quotes grow out of a firm and steadfast conviction: The Bible as the authoritative Word for all of life. Thoughtfully arranged, the authors of this collection of quotes, namely Franklin Graham the son, Donna Lee Toney, a colleague of Billy Graham, have teamed up to organize many of the classic quotes culled from the great evangelist's many talks, books, writings, meetings, speeches, rallies, and lectures. Five things grabbed my attention. First, there is that reliance on the Bible as the starting point. That is why, every topic starts with a Bible passage as an anchor for the entire chapter. The quotes are then arranged more in accordance with the Bible verse rather than the title of the chapter. Second, it takes someone with a close knowledge of the man himself to quote Graham within the right context. A book of such nature cannot be easily done from a distance. So often, quotes can be taken easily out of context which risks misrepresentation. Just deciding on which material to pull the quote out from is already a huge task. Third, one cannot help but notice the conviction in each quote. Graham is ready to call a spade a spade without reservation or qualification. For example, he calls Satan point blank as a "crafty and clever camouflager." He fingers out the problem of marriages that lie in people "absorbed only in their own pleasures and desires." He warns us against pride in one of the simplest ways possible: "Pride comes from looking only at ourselves; meekness comes through looking at God." Four, Graham speaks in a manner that convicts hearts. The quotes themselves are weighty and readers will find many moments in which they have to let Graham's convictions challenge the reader: "What about you?" Five, this book alone brings together the best of Graham all in one book. It reminds us once again why Billy Graham is so renowned, respected, and revered by many people, both Christians as well as non-Christians. It is tempting for any reader to just open this book, look at the topic of interest, and then choose the first quote that grabs our attention. My advice is: slow down. Pray and ponder. Reflect and wonder on the Scripture verse at the beginning of each topic. Then slowly peruse the quotes one by one, thoughtfully, critically, and openly. I recommend this book highly for preachers and teachers to use as resource material; the busy reader for a quick meditative quote; and the Christian for building up conviction in the Word of God, and commission to share that Word with the world for God. Wow! Rating: 5 stars of 5. conrade I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com® book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review.

A Dubious Disciple Book Review

This is a collection of quotes, taken from the writings of Billy Graham over sixty years, collected by his son Franklin. What better way is there to get to know this special man, than from the horse's mouth? Mr. Graham and I share few beliefs, yet I have a great deal of respect for him, and I really enjoyed browsing through this collection of quotes, feeling the simplicity, faith, and urgency of his message. Following are a few examples which shed light on the type of person Billy Graham was: On the Bible: "The Bible is the only Book in the world that predicts the future. The Bible is more modern than tomorrow morning's newspaper." On Christianity: "We cannot inherit Christianity ... God has no grandchildren." On the end times: "We see the storm clouds gathering and events taking place that herald the second coming of Jesus Christ." "Events are moving rapidly toward some sort of climax." On Eternity: "Heaven is real and hell is real, and eternity is but a breath away." On Heaven: "My home is in heaven. I'm just passing through this world." As I read back over the quotes I highlighted, and select only the half-dozen I find most revealing, I realize that I was most inspired by Billy Graham's quiet faith in the future. From this, I present one more quote: "I have read the last page of the bible. It is all going to turn out all right."

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh.....

Book Review - Billy Graham In Quotes

It's said that, outside of Paul the Apostle, Billy Graham has presented the Gospel to more people than anyone else in history. And his ministry was vast and widespread, holding crusades all over the United States and around the world for decades. Billy Graham has also penned countless books and written hundreds of articles, and countless sermons. He's almost a household name for most people, especially those in the church. With all of that history, I'm surprised that it's taken this long to gather many of his memorable and poignant statements into one volume of quotations. But it's been done at last, in

Wonderful!

Growing up I had heard people talk about Billy Graham but I had never heard or read any of his preaching. When I was given the opportunity to review one of his books I was delighted! I was swept up in this book. I love how each of his quotes were placed in such an easy to find content. Being a mother of three the first thing I did was turn to the chapter on children.. called Billy Graham on Children. I love how each chapter started out with a bible verse (however I wish it was in KJV, which is just my preference). This chapter started with Deuteronomy 4:10 NIV - Assemble the people before me to hear my words so that they may.. teach them to their children. The quotes in this chapter were truly inspiring.. Here are a few of my favorites::: "Love your children - and let them know you love them. Children who experience love find it far easier to believe God loves them." "The television, Ipod, and internet have trespassed upon the innocence of American's children, while preoccupied mothers and dispassionate fathers stare aghast wondering what went wrong. They don't stop to think of their own contributions to the persuasions influencing their children. After all, where do kids as young as elementary age get money to rent rock videos and the latest rap DVDs?" - this was my favorite! "Children must be taught obedience just as much as they need to be taught to read and write." I would read Billy Graham's quotes and want to say AMEN! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys Billy Graham's preaching or anyone who would like to read some wonderful quotes by a Godly man.

Billy Graham in Quotes

When I was 10 years old, I went to my first and only Billy Graham crusade in Cleveland, Ohio. I saw DC Talk climb the side of the stage and sing - which was awesome! Then, finally after all the pageantry, I saw Billy Graham speak and share the Good News of Jesus. It wasn't anything spectacular. It was simply a man sharing how good Jesus is and how much he wanted to be reconciled to us. Even as a 10 year old boy, I could see his passion and I believed his message. To write a book about Billy Graham quotes, without actually being able to hear his voice is like watching Seinfeld with subtitles and the sound off. It just doesn't carry the same impact. There were some great quotes in this book, but all in all, I was kind of disappointed in the caliber of quotes. Some that they attributed to him, I know I have seen in the books of much older saints of God - so that was a little disappointing as well. I had to remember that there were certain subjects about which Billy Graham spoke so eloquently, and just because they created a section with some of his quotes in it - does not mean that they are necessarily memorable ones. I'm grateful for Billy Graham and the impact his life has made. I hope he continues to live a great life for God's glory! You can pick up a copy of this book on Amazon or in a retailer that sells Christian books. I received this book as part of Booksneeze.com's Blogging for Books program. The opinions are mine.

Billy Graham in Quotes

We crave for meaning and purpose, security and significance, love and hope. Billy Graham has offered wise quote-worthy advise on these and many subjects for generations.

Franklin Graham, Billy's son, and Donna Lee Toney have collected thousands of quotes gathered into 107 categories (listed below) that will delight, motivate and enrich readers. Here are ten quotes that I valued. You may value others. I loved this collection of wise words and sage suggestions, and I think that you will too. Anxiety: "Though we have less to worry about than previous generations, we have more worry. Though we have it easier than our forefathers, we have more uneasiness. Though we have less real cause for anxiety than our predecessors, we are inwardly more anxious." Commitment: "Jesus didn't use subtlety or gimmicks to gain followers. Rather, He honestly laid before them the tough demands of discipleship--total commitment and total involvement." "Commitment means burning all bridges behind you." Hope: "Faith points us beyond our problems to the hope we have in Christ." "Our world today desperately hungers for hope, and yet uncounted people have almost given up. There is despair and hopelessness on every hand. Let us be faithful in proclaiming the hope that is in Jesus!" Love: "When Christ's love fills our hearts, it puts selfishness on the run."

I love this book!

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."

The Wisdom of Billy Graham in an Easy to Read Format

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.

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a wonderful book for anyone to read from the newest Christian to a retired minister and everyone in between. When I saw that the book contained the words of Billy Graham I had to read it for I have the greatest respect for him and his message. When I first got the book I was picking and choosing quotes to read and then I decided that I should start reading at the beginning and read to the end. Every quote is a nugget of wisdom and the quotes cover 107 different topics from abortion to young people. The quotes are alphabetized by subject and this makes it very easy to choose quotes to read on a certain subject. Before each section of quotes there is a Bible verse that deals with the issue that the quotes cover. It is hard to pick favorite quotes but I do have some that really spoke to me and I want to share them. ..."Fear not the future; God is already there." "We cannot inherit Christianity...God has no grandchildren." "I have read the last page of the Bible. It is all going to turn out all right." "Happy is the person who has learned the secret of being content with whatever life brings him, and has learned to rejoice in the simple and beautiful things around him." "God first, others second, self third." "There are two ways of being rich--have a lot, or want very little. The latter way is the easier for most." "Peace--[the ability] to sleep in the storm!" (This one especially spoke to me for just a few weeks ago I was sound asleep when tornadoes were touching down all around me.) "Too often we use petty little petitions, oratorical exercises, or the words of others rather than the cries of our inmost being. When you pray, pray." (I especially like this one for so many times I feel that my prayers are just repetition of what I prayed earlier.) "The greatest waste in all of our earth is our waste of the time God has given us each day." (This one really hit me where it hurts for I am retired and many times at the end of the day I feel that I have done absolutely nothing for God, for others, or even for myself.) "Heaven is full of answers to prayer for which no one ever bothered to ask!" (I had heard this one before and it really made me stop and think.) I definitely give this book five stars and believe that everyone will benefit from reading this book.

Great Condensed Collection on Graham's Thoughts

Throughout his life of preaching the gospel to millions across the world, the Reverend Billy Graham has obviously written and said quite a bit that is quite noteworthy of reading. In an effort to capture some of Graham's more salient comments on a wide range of subjects, Graham's son Franklin Graham has compiled his father's thoughts into short, pithy statements. This book is very similar in construct to other books of this type such as those created to capture statements by other well known individuals such as Abraham Lincoln for example. This is arguably not a book one would just sit down and read cover to cover. Conversely, it is more of a text designed to be read if perhaps someone is interested in what Billy Graham had to say on the issue of abortion or anger. This collection of statements demonstrates if nothing else the timeless nature not just of what Billy Graham had to say, but more importantly, the timeless truths found in Scripture which Billy Graham looked to for his own guidance. In an almost proverbial form, Franklin Graham has recorded the thoughts of his father in a manner that will definitely prove useful to many more generations of readers. For those looking for a condensed version of what Billy Graham had to say on any number of relevant topics, this is certainly an interesting read. I recommend this book as something to keep around by the bedside or to give to someone who is struggling with comprehending what Scripture might have to say on a topic. Graham had a wonderful gift of stating Scriptural truth in a manner to be easily understood by the common layman. Billy Graham in Quotes is a valuable resource for both the layman and seasoned theologian alike.

Perfect for a Lover of Quotes!

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a book I knew I would like. I LOVE quotes, anything and everything to do with quotes. At my old job I would look up certain quotes and make "quote of the day" and "quote of the month". I like them because other people are so much better at putting a thought process into words. I love verses as well, but quotes have I have always enjoyed. That being said, I LOVE how this book is set up and organized. It's not just a bunch of quotes thrown together- thank goodness. Each quote is separated into a different topic such as: marriage, joy, abortion, peace, money, addiction, etc. There is also an index where you can look up quotes under a certain topic. Depending on the day you can flip to the topic you need and there are your quotes. One of my favorite sections is marriage. Taken from the book: "The Bible stresses that marriage ideally should be a picture or a reflection of Christ's love for His people". "Marriage is not a reform school... Instead of you reforming [your spouse], [he or she] will instead influence you". Each sections starts with a Bible verse too. "We are accountable to [God] for the way we use our time". I mean there are so many good quotes, some better than others. In any case, if you like quotes in any amount you should pick up this book.

A Great Resource for Those Who Love Quotes...

I would say that most practicing Christians have probably at least heard of the name Billy Graham. Saved by grace during a church tent revival service as a young man, Billy went on to preach the good news to millions of people. And he did it with faith, fervor, conviction and love. I was super excited to be able to review the recently published book, Billy Graham in Quotes, a book that is filled with the wise words that this grace-saved man of God spoke throughout his living years as an evangelist and preacher. Compiled by his son, Franklin Graham (founder of Samaritan's Purse ministry) and Donna Lee Toney, the quotes are arranged into topical sections. Let me list just a sampling of some of those sections as there are more than one-hundred topics! Addiction, Anger, Anxiety, Character, Children, Church, Conscience, Convictions, Death, Deception, the Devil, Discipleship, End Times, Eternity, Faith, Family, Forgiveness, God's Will, Grace, Greed, Heaven, Hell, Holy Spirit, Home, Influence, Jesus, Joy, Living the Christian Life, Loneliness, Lust, Marriage, Money, Patience, Peace, Persecution, Pleasure, Pride, Race, Religion, Repentance, Salvation, Sin, Speech, Strength, Suffering, Surrender, Temptation, Thankfulness, Time, War, Work, Worry, Worship. Wow! And there are more where that came from! Now, it is important to remember that there is no written work that has more authority than the Word of God - the Bible. And so, one should look at the quotes written in this book as inspiration and motivation, but not as inerrant or absolute. There's only one book that's ever been written that is inerrant and absolute, and that is The Word. However, if you enjoyed listening to Billy Graham when he was alive and preaching, or if you like to display inspirational quotes around your home (on your whiteboard on the fridge, on your decorative chalkboard), then this would be a great book for you. I am responsible for formatting and printing our church's bulletins each week; I always put an inspirational quote from a Christian figure each week so I plan on using this book for that purpose as well. *I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson in exchange for my honest review

Excellent book!

Wonderful resource for your library!

Billy Graham is one of my most favorite evangelists. I've listened to him all of my life and to have a book of many, many quotes of his is just marvelous. In this 400 plus page book you will get to read Billy's thoughts on all kind of subjects. They are things from abortion, Bible, church, death to suffering, truth, war, young people. Billy Graham preached for more than seventy years, so you know he has a lot of wisdom in this book. In the back of the book in the note section Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney put in where each quote came from and the date of that service etc... There are 107 sections in this book and each section has several quotes on each subject. It's just amazing to me that all of the wisdom you will read in this one book. On the front of the book is one of Billy Graham's quotes that is beautiful, "When the gospel of Jesus Christ is presented with authority-quoting from the very word of God- He takes that message and drives it supernaturally into the human heart." -Billy Graham Here is another quote from Billy Graham that is oh so true, "The issue of abortion is not whether you have a right to terminate the life of a child... The real issue is whether or not you will insist on running your own life according to your own standards, or whether you will instead let God run your life." This is a book that you need to keep and read and re-read again and again. I would give this book more than five stars if it were possible. Disclosure of Material Connection: I receive books free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their Book Review Blogger program/BookSneeze. I am not required to write a positive review.

This is true of any book I review for any publisher or author; I will not review books where a positive review is required and I will always express my own opinions of each book received and read.

This is one you CAN judge by its cover...

I know you're not supposed to judge books by their cover, but I give those very familiar with Billy Graham to do just that with this book. Graham's classic simple approach is not always as witty or memorable as a Mark Twain, but thoroughly biblical and thoroughly Billy Graham. If you like Billy Graham and like quote books, you will like this volume that blends both. The book is organized topically with the table of contents spanning four pages, hitting topics like abortion, addiction, anxiety, the Bible, living the Christian life, marriage, world evangelism, and young people. One nice thing about this book is that every quote is footnoted; that is that the context of the quotes is documented if you want to look up when and where Billy Graham said those words. Some sample Billy Graham Quotes: "When the gospel of Jesus Christ is presented with authority--quoting from the very Word of God--He takes that message and drives it supernaturally into the human heart." "Part of the human makeup which distinguishes man from other creatures is his ability to reason and make moral decisions. Man is a moral free agent." "There is one thing that God's love cannot do. It cannot forgive the unrepentant sinner." "Our popular music talks constantly about love, and yet divorce rates skyrocket." "A Christian funeral should be a coronation ceremony, a statement to the world about eternal life." "The church does not prey on the lost; it prays for the perishing." "Christians ought to carry written in our hearts the solemn truth of how short is our opportunity to witness for Christ and live for Him." "Our society has traded strength of character for makeovers that deceive." "When the family is destroyed, society eventually disintegrates."

Simple, Yet Profound

The first time I ever heard of an evangelist was when the Billy Graham crusade came to town. Nine years old, I attended a Baptist church at the time and joined the team of volunteers to go door to door and invite people to come. In the years since, I've listened to many Billy Graham sermons and even sung in the choir as an adult at one of the last crusades held. So, I was thoroughly delighted when I received a copy of the book "Billy Graham in Quotes." If there ever was a man who speaks truthfully and succinctly, it's the Reverend Billy Graham. His son, Franklin Graham (who along with Donna Lee Toney compiled the quotes) says the material spans seven decades. What a legacy to have preached for so long! It's a wonderful tribute to have a son who has amassed his father's simple statements of Biblical truth on a vast array of subjects. With the book divided alphabetically according to subject, the many topics cover everything from anger and angels to worry and worship. I highly recommend this book as resource for preachers and teachers or for anyone who wants to read a quote to ponder and meditate on throughout the day.

Billy Graham in Quotes -- Beautiful, Simple, Pleasing

You know, I have always loved Billy Graham. I remember as a kid going to his crusades and thinking this guy was bigger than life. I was only nine years old the first time I saw him at a crusade with my little brother who was then seven years old. We were seated with our family, and were there early to get a good seat. There was time still to explore the stadium before the crusade started. Back then, kids could do things like that and no one gave it a second thought. My brother and I decided to go where all the security guards were huddled around a doorway. Low and behold, not long after, Mr. Graham entered the stadium from that very door and I managed to gently tug on his tailcoat when, in a flash, I was whisked into the air by a security guard. My brother was picked up too, and we were given a scolding and escorted out to the main area. All eyes were on us as Mr. Graham made his exit and thousands of people saw the two mischievious children being picked up by the security guards. My grandparents said, "Oh MY, look at those kids!! Hey, wait a minute, those aren't "kids", those are OUR kids!!" Anyway, Mr. Graham never pressed charges or anything, but I have always seen him as larger than life. Unlike any other evangelist, he has been faithful, kept a Godly reputation and has been an inspiration to millions of people worldwide, unlike any other this century. He will always have my greatest respect and gratitude for reminding me of the beautiful simplicity of the Gospel. This is why it is important to read Franklin Graham's, Billy Graham in Quotes: in this day and age where slander and gossip intended to harm the reputation of God's annointed is running rampant, even by other evangelists, we must go to the source. I think it is total cowardice to be slamming a man who, in his mid-90s, has dedicated his entire life to the service of God and is now in no position to defend himself after all these years, nor should he be required to! People have accused Mr. Graham of saying he believes there many ways to God, but this is out of context and just plain, old mean. This book is important because in the pages, we have what Mr. Graham has said without enforcing our own interpretations on them. Does this sound like a man who is saying he believes there are many ways to attain salvation? "It is not arrogance or narrow-mindedness to claim that there is only one way of salvation or that the way we follow is the right way? I think not. After all, do we fault a pilot of being narrow-minded when he follows the instrument panel while landing in a rainstorm? No, we want him to remain narrowly focused" (p.304). It is imperative we are not hurting our elderly brothers and sisters in Christ, but that we stand by them with gratitude and respect for what they have done in contributing to the cause of Christ. In addition to this, Billy Graham in Quotes, is a wonderful desk reference on almost any and every subject. And, as is usual of Billy Graham's warm and tender style, these are down to earth nuggets of wisdom, meant to encourage you and edify you in your walk with Christ.

A Man of God Speaks His Mind

I grew up with Billy Graham coming into my household. Year after year each of his quarterly crusades were turned on and listen to over the TV set in our living room. I finally was able to hear him preach in person in 1982. Earlier this year I was privileged to review the 2012 Christian Book of the Year, Billy Graham's

A Must Have Book!

I really appreciated this book of quotes. Franklin Graham put together a collection of his father's words. Famous things that he said, pieces of wisdom he shared and phrases that God spoke through him in sermons, books and conversations. It is a blessing to have them all in one place and listed topically. I loved reading through the many chapters of this book and found so many of them struck a chord in my own heart. I know I will refer back to these quotes many times over. The back of the book says, "A note from Franklin Graham: "My father, Billy Graham, is known for speaking out about the one and only thing that matters in this world: the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. He remembers the call of God seven decades ago to preach the Word of God to all those who would listen about salvation that comes only through Christ. He took this high calling with seriousness and boldness in obedience to God and once said, 'I will travel anywhere in the world to preach if there are no strings on what I am to say.' "My father has always prayed that his words would reflect God's standard of truth as the basis to claim, 'I have given them Your word' (John 17:14). In this book, I believe you will see that he has faithfully spoken God's Word that quenches the thirst of those seeking to draw from the wellsprings of Life. It is highly meaningful to see these statements now collected in one volume." Drawn from an unparelleled collection of both personal and published works, Billy Graham provides input on more than one hundred topics, such as suffering, joy, money, addictions, peace, and many more." This is a great reference book, devotional book and gift book. Billy Graham has been a blessing to people everywhere and this book gives me a piece of that on my shelf. *I was provided with a copy of this book to review from Booksneeze

Great book!

There are few things we Christians should understand best and that's the assault of the world, even the spiritual world on our personal and public ministry. In a world where the normative is to tear down rather than build, Rev. Grahams ministry is withstanding the test of time. Surely he has built upon the rock and not the sand so you'll be well blessed to read the words of comfort, inspiration and council of a man who's lived life in God's work. Some are called to write books some are called to have books written about their work toward the Kingdom of God. Billy Graham is universally known as the evangelist of our era. His work has paved the way for opportunities to council world leaders even to the confines of the Oval Office where he has humbly shared the wisdom of God. Even if we were to have a private sitting with Reverend Graham we wouldn't remember to ask the proper questions or all the answers he could give. His son Franklin as well as a Donna Lee Toney, a veteran of Rev. Grahams ministry and, sharing literary collaboration most recently in the re-release of "Storm Warning" with Billy Graham. Rev. Graham often finds himself quoted and misquoted by the press and this book he sets another stone in the foundation of what the scriptures has revealed and inspired him to speak. Even in his introduction Rev. Graham indicates his deep and abiding respect for the Word of God. "Because my eyesight dims more each year, I am grateful for the many Scripture passages I was able to commit to memory through my years of study, and I draw strength from them day by day." Franklin Graham & Donna Lee Toney. Billy Graham in Quotes. Thomas Nelson. Ultimately I'm not a reader of "list" or topical style books but I take exception I find this to be personally inspirational and anyone who has a personal or public ministry will be encouraged to continue.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook.

Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book!

An Anthology of Quotes by Billy Graham

Thanks to our friends at Thomas Nelson Publishers just recently recieved and finished reading through a new book "Billy Graham in Quotes" by Billy Graham and (editors) Franklin Graham & Donna Lee Toney. This book is great treasury trove of Billy Graham's quotes on everything from creation to abortion and much more. The material is drawn from a collection of seven decades of both Graham's personal and published works. His input is provides in brief whimsical quotes on more than a hundred topics on such things as suffering, money, loneliness, peace, addictions, anxiety, lust and all things having to do with Christianity. When it comes to voices of influence, Billy Graham being the greatest global evangelist our generation has ever seen and whose ministry throughout the years was marked by Christ-like integrity has evangelical commentary to say found in his quotes it's worth the time to be read and heard. The simplistic writing style and that the breakdown is well organized by topical category alphabetically makes this a perfect resource. This is a great book to have along as a great read and resource to recommend for any bible reader, teacher or preacher. I find Billy's son Franklin Graham, one of the editors' words on the back of the book fitting: "My father, Billy Graham, is known for speaking out about the one and only thing that matters in this world: the Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. He remembers the call of God seven decades ago to preach the Word of God to all those who would listen about salvation that comes only through Christ. He took this high calling with seriousness and boldness in obedience to God and once said, 'I will travel anywhere in the world to preach if there are no strings on what I am to say.' This book I believes captures the Christian thought of Billy Graham and offers its readers his valuable insight, wisdom and commentary by a man who is known as one of the greatest Evangelist of our time. You will find his commentary on the topics just as Biblically sound, Christ centered and relevant as when they were first penned.

Billy Graham in quotes, an excellent book!

For Book Sneeze book review, I recently read Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney. I have always tremendously admired Billy Graham. He is truly a "man of God", a gifted evangelist and has done much to get the word out about Jesus. It was a true honor and privilege to be able to read this book of quotes of his. The book encompasses 70 years of quotes from him on a variety of subjects, listed in the book from A to Z literally (pretty much all the alphabet is used, I don't think any "Q's", "X's" or "U's" but pretty much any other letter is used starting with Abortion through Youth). Each chapter begins the same "Billy Graham on ...." and then whatever those quotes are in reference to, i.e., "Billy Graham on Church". "Billy Graham on Jesus" etc. A specific scripture that corresponds with the chapter is listed under that. For example "Billy Graham on Joy", the Scripture under that is "The people went...to celebrate with great joy because they had heard God's words and understood them". Nehemiah 8:12. Then the chapter lists quotes from sermons and writings on that particular subject that Billy Graham preached about or said over his many years of evangelism. He is an incredibly wise man and speaks the truth in those quotes no matter what the subject was. I found myself stopping to ponder and think about a lot of the quotes and wanting to reference them in situations in the future when the need would arise, like quotes regarding grief, money, etc. His message consistently remains the same. Who Jesus is and our need for him. He doesn't minimize nor reduce the good news of Jesus and what lies ahead for those that don't accept Jesus as their Savior. This is a book I intend to read over and over again and refer to ofter. I highly recommend it. In exchange for getting a book sent to me as a free copy, I agreed to do a review on a consumer retail website of my honest opinion about the book. In this case, I honestly enjoyed it very much and am thinking of giving it as gifts in the upcoming holiday season to friends and family.

Quotations resource from one of the greatest evangelists of our time

Growing up we did not have cable TV. Instead we had the standard TV with rabbit ear antennae and we got 4 channels...NBC, ABC, CBS and FOX and if we were lucky we got PBS. That was it. We didn't spend a lot of time in front of the TV either. During the day we were outside playing or at school, and at night we were playing board games or card games. However, there was about once a month a special on T.V. that we would watch. That special was an hour long talk given by Billy Graham, one of the greatest evangelists of our time. My parents would watch it eagerly and they would not want any interruptions. Growing up I remember thinking what is so special about this man? How is he any different than the average Joe? Well as I grew older I realized that the wisdom that Mr. Graham shared with his followers was Bible driven and he was not out to just make money as many evangelists are. Rather he was out to share the Gospel message with as many people as he could. In Billy Graham in Quotes, his son Franklin Graham and his son's colleague Donna Lee Toney, have offered readers a glimpse into Billy Graham's anthology of works by piecing together hundreds of quotes by Mr. Graham from both his public speeches as well as his private writings and works. These quotations cover hundreds of topics ranging from abortion, faith, patience, the devil, children, marriage, and many others. These quotations span the previous 70 years of Mr. Graham's ministry and are still relevant today and will continue to be relevant for years to come. This collection is a great resource to have in one's personal library. It offers a resource of quotations that are meant to be uplifting no matter what your situation. I thoroughly enjoyed reading through the quotations and will definitely keep this book in my personal library so that I can refer to it when the need arises.

Billy Graham in Quotes

I have a deep respect for Billy Graham. As a child, I remember watching him on TV, and as a young adult, I was able to see him live at the Metrodome in Minneapolis. I've read quite a bit about him and am grateful for his steadfast faith and his bold preaching of the Word of God. He is a larger-than-life figure and has made an enormous impact on the world. The book, Billy Graham in Quotes, was compiled from Mr. Graham's writings over the decades. It covers such topics as commitment and character to angels and sin. It's not the type of book that you read cover to cover, although that's how I tried to do so for the purposes of this review. It's more of a reference book, a source to draw upon when faced with a particular issue. There were many, many quotes that deeply impacted me. I appreciate his boldness and how he stands firm to biblical truth. He said many things that today would be considered politically incorrect, particularly on moral matters such as abortion and same-sex relationships. But he stands firm to his convictions, and that is what I appreciate so much about him. I also read this book in Kindle format, but I think it would be more useful and accessible as a book that is kept on a shelf or on a coffee table. It's the kind of book that you page through, not that you plow through. If you appreciate the work of Billy Graham - or even if you're just curious about him - this book comes highly recommended, with the caveats already discussed.

Help for every situation

Billy Graham in Quotes, by Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney, is a comprehensive collection of the quotes of this great preacher and soul winner for Christ. He has shared the gospel message with seekers in every continent and more than 185 countries. The quotes are arranged by topic and there are a staggering 107 topics, such as prayer, peace, love, salvation, and death. These quotes are taken from the many books Graham has authored including Peace With God, The Secret of Happiness, and How To Be Born Again. I can recommend this book highly to everyone who is questioning anything about God or about the Bible. With 107 featured topics you can surely find a quote on whatever situation you're facing and you can find comfort. Billy Graham in Quotes is an unusual compendium of advice, comfort, and truth, all based on the Bible. Even in the Death chapter I found some sobering words. Here is an example: "We now have the advantage of a few more years of life, but death is still standing at the end of the road." You can't argue with that. As I get older, and after experiencing the death of my father earlier this year, these words ring true. Though I am certified in several natural health modalities, you can only prolong life to a point, and we will all die someday. Knowing where we are going is of paramount importance. In that sense, it no longer matters what we have on earth, for it will pale in comparison to all we have in heaven. Walking with Jesus? That's where I want to be. Reviewed for BookSneeze.

The Quotable Billy Graham

No one has preached to more people than the world renown evangelist Billy Graham. His popularity, respect, integrity, and fan fare had traveled with him throughout the world and he has faithfully proclaimed the gospel to the four corners of the world. Now, at the edge of life, his son and others have gathered together a book of collected quotes from Dr. Graham on virtually every subject. From Abortion to Young People, Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney allow Billy Graham to speak in the book Billy Graham in Quotes. This is a great resource for every pastor and believer. As a pastor it is helpful books like this that give us insight into complicated issues and gives extra authority behind them. Everyone knows Billy Graham and even those who have rejected his gospel message over the decades respect him and as the introduction from Graham himself and the foreword from Franklin make clear, he has always sought to speak from the Word of God, uplifting Christ, and sought to use every opportunity to reach people with the gospel. That is what makes this such a great resource. Graham speaks from a conviction about Scripture and a desire to see people come to faith in Christ. Unlike most book of quotes, there is a desire from the editors and collaborators to reach the reader with the gospel of Jesus Christ. I highly recommend this book and I highly recommend any book by Billy Graham and most biographies on him. Graham has been the face of Christianity for decades and this book shows us why. For those wanting to know how to think on a whole host of issues, this is a great resource to have.

Timeless and Relevant Teaching

Growing up, I always thought of Billy Graham as someone who ministered to older generations. In recent years, however, I've developed a great appreciation for him and for his ministry that is truly relevant to anyone who will listen. "Billy Graham in Quotes" helped me understand why. In the forward to this book, Graham's son Franklin tells how his father has always been careful to communicate to others not his own message, but God's message for them. He teaches the Gospel as presented in God's Word. This is what makes his preaching timeless and relevant to all. The book is a collection of Billy Graham quotes arranged in chapters topically. Each chapter begins with a Scripture quotation. Graham's quotations on the topic follow. I enjoyed reading through the book, but readers with specific concerns can pick and choose topics of interest to benefit from Graham's Bible-based insights. Every single quotation in the book is followed by an endnote number, so readers can turn to the back of the book to learn when the quotation was originally spoken or written. (The endnotes actually take up about a quarter of the book!) I thank Thomas Nelson Publishers for sending a complimentary eCopy of this book to me. I've enjoyed reading it and am sure I will turn to it as a source of wisdom and understanding again and again. Presenting Graham's quotes in this format was a well thought-out idea!

Billy Graham in Quotes

My great-grandmother always loved Billy Graham, so when I saw Billy Graham in Quotes become available for reviewing, I was eager to read about the works of Billy Graham. I was not disappointed. Billy Graham's son, Franklin Graham said, "My father has always prayed that his words would reflect God's standard of truth as the basis to claim, 'I have given them Your word' (John 17:14). In this book, I believe you will see that he has faithfully spoken God's Word that quenches the thirst of those seeking to draw from the wellsprings of Life. It is highly meaningful to see these statements now collected in one volume." The book is conveniently divided alphabetically into categories, such as, Forgiveness, Sin, Heaven, and Angels. I was blessed reading through the plethora of quotes from the sermons, life, and books of Billy Graham. The quotes are biblically sound and a great resource for students, pastors, or parents. When I was fearful lately, I picked up this book and began to read under the "Anxiety" section. I was comforted by the truth in this book. I continually remember one quote in particular: "No situation is beyond God's control. Over my wife's desk are these words: `Fear not the future; God is already there.'"

Book and the Man. Laudable with Something Missing

Even in this era of superstar charismatic preachers, none probably is as universally well known as Billy Graham. Many have called him America's pastor due to his fame and his counsel to so many Presidents. I have always has an appreciation for him even though I could not endorse some of his theological assertions. I was able to see him live at one of his famous crusades when I was in school. And while there was much a Lutheran could scoff at, his simple presentation of the law and gospel was compelling, especially for a man of his age. So when I saw this book available to review at BookSneeze, I jumped at the opportunity. Truth is 99% of his sermons at his crusades were very similar since he viewed both his call and his crusades as specifically evangelistic. He did not seek to teach on many topics but time and time again sought to reveal man as sinner and Jesus as Savior. I hopes this book might give me a broader insight into the convictions of this man. This book is very easy to use and read. It is simply a collection of quotations on various topics. It is nice that they are footnoted as well. Even though there were many topics listed, almost all of the quotes still revolved around the basic message of sin and salvation. To me this was disappointing because I hope to learn more about his thoughts on other things. However, at the same time, I cannot help but rejoice that his focus always remained on sin and grace. If you have to get stuck on one thought, that is the one to land on. With such a tendency, he could have been confused as a Lutheran until the altar call. The quotations themselves are a good reference to have. Billy Graham did not speak in fancy language but is blessedly plain and straightforward. We could learn from this. Just parrot the scriptures and leave it there. I could see this book being helpful in preparing a sermon or speaking on a particular topic. Strikingly absent is any talk of the sacraments even as mere ordinances. Obviously, I did not expect to agree if there were quotes but the fact that nothing is said of them says a lot. I feel about this book the way I feel about the man. There is much to be lauded but it also much missing. This book could be worth owning to those looking for different ways to same the same things (which all Lutheran preachers ought to do). But as a Lutheran, you will always have to fill in the Baptist blanks.

Billy Graham's Thoughts in a Nutshell

Billy Graham's son, Franklin, has shared wonderful, insightful, encouraging, and in some cases, convicting quotes from a myriad of resources in his latest book "Billy Graham in Quotes". This extraordinary book includes quotes on 107 topics from, I believe, the most well-known evangelist of our era. Nothing is off-limits. The book begins with quotes on abortion and covers other topics including creation, Satan, grief, lust, marriage, and success. This is a wonderful resource for pastors, teachers, public speakers and more. I just recently shared a quote on marriage that was in this book with a newly married couple in the greeting card we gave them. Sometimes we get a little foggy on what God really says about a subject because of world views. Other than the Bible itself, this is another source of direction from a man I believe to be a man after God's own heart.

Billy Graham Rocks

I've always loved reading anything I could about Billy Graham. Ever since my psychology teacher (my favorite teacher of all time, Mrs. Sherry Schippers!) my senior year of high school explained how she'd once been in the same room with him, and could just tell that he was a man whose greatest desire was to follow Jesus with all he had. A year or so later while attending Taylor University majoring in Christian Education, her description of him still lingered in my mind. But it wasn't just his life that interested me, but that of his wife, Ruth Bell Graham. I remember, specifically, that when they met soon after he'd transferred to Wheaton College, he simply knew as soon as their eyes met, that he was going to marry her. Likewise, Ruth was just as impressed, and could somehow tell that he was more interested in pleasing God than any other man she'd ever met. And that was the main reason I've been so transfixed by this couple. If two such people who loved God so much, who were seeking God's will for their lives, and obeying HIM were able to recognize their soul-mate with such precision--I wanted to be just like them. I prayed that I would be able to live so God-focused and obediently that when I met my future husband, I would also know. And you know what? God answered that prayer. It wasn't right away, of course. And it didn't come without a few bumps in the road from my getting a little side-tracked by life-- but when I finally woke up and turned my brain back on, broke up with my "friend-relationship" I'd been trying to make into a "dating-relationship" for about three years--I almost immediately met Jonathan (my now husband). And just like Billy Graham and Ruth Bell met and knew back in 1942--Jonathan and I met and knew in 2003. I've read plenty of books about Billy Graham and Ruth Bell Graham throughout the years, but never a book consisting of such a compilation of quotes regarding everything you could think of! I loved having all this wisdom and knowledge at my fingertip and look forward to using these quotes in the woman's ministry newsletter that I help write for my church. I received a free hard copy of this book from BookSneeze in return for giving my honest opinion and review.

Billy Graham in Quotes is a Must Keep - Must Read Reference Book.

I have to confess that I absolutely LOVE Billy Graham. He is one of the truly great preachers of our time, and this book is living proof of that. The authors of Billy Graham in Quotes (Thomas Nelson) are stated as Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney, but the vast majority of it is written by Billy Graham himself - in the quotes they gathered. Each chapter is a quotation category. I reread the one titled, "Billy Graham on Young People" many times. What he said is so very true, especially that the greatest threat to young people is boredom. I wholeheartedly agree. Another great chapter of quotes is in, "Billy Graham on Addiction." Here, he talks about drugs and other addictions, but also a lot about alcohol. He says: *Drunkenness. This Greek word means overindulgence in alcohol .... It is a self-inflicted impediment that springs from "a man taking a drink, a drink taking a drink, and a drink taking the man." Distilled liquors as we have them today were unknown in Bible times. (page 5) My husband I do not drink alcohol at all, but I have friends and family who do. I don't think Mr. Graham is passing judgment on these people, but rather, he warns them against the dangers of this "drug." Billy Graham in Quotes is a great book to keep on your shelf and to refer whenever you have questions about certain issues. As always, though, Billy Graham, as great as he is, is not the final authority. Test the quotes against the Bible. I have done so with several of these quotes and find I have to agree that those particular quotes are, indeed, Biblical. I gotta recommend this book - five stars from me! **I received a copy of Billy Graham in Quotes in exchange for my honest opinion. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.**

[Billy Graham in Quotes]

I heard Billy Graham speak one time. I was about fourteen. I don't remember a word he said. (we were in a stadium and it echoed badly, that's all I can recall!) I always thought that Billy Graham told the truth about salvation but as for his stand on anything else... it must have been toeing the line because everyone, on all sides and in all faiths, tolerated him. That was a pretty harsh assessment and completely wrong. The reason for his good standing with so many must simply be the grace of God in his life because he simply spoke truth. As I read through his quotes on a plethora of subjects (abortion, the Bible, creation, greed, race, society, success, war, etc...) I was amazed at how directly he confronted the lies that have perpetrated our world. To give you a little taste: The issue [of] abortion is not whether you have a right to terminate the life of a child... The real issue is whether or not you will insist on running your own life according to your own standards, or whether you will instead let God run your life. As for the book itself, there is no doubt that it would make a lovely addition to any library. The soft cover makes it easy to handle, the sections are clearly marked with an easy-to-use index. As a writer and Sunday School teacher, I will greatly appreciate the use of this book in years to come!

Classic Graham on Many Topics

In "Billy Graham in Quotes," Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney have compiled a number of his famed father's statements on a diversity of subjects. These have been culled from sermons and books. Billy Graham, the most influential evangelist of the 20th century, gives his opinion on many topics, including: abortion, addiction, angels, anger, anxiety, children, conversion, the devil, the end times, heaven, hell, money, peace, preaching, war and many more. Each heading begins with a Scripture quotation that, in Graham's mind, has shaped his thinking about the topic at hand, followed by a half dozen or so quotations. "Billy Graham in Quotes" is an intriguing and useful resource, especially for Christian leaders and speakers. Stringing together quotations can be risk, however, as the words lose their original context, although Billy Graham is usually straightforward enough that the reader is not left wondering what he thinks (though his reasoning for his opinion, other than a Bible verse, is opaque). I was surprised that some topics were not included, such as sexuality. Perhaps that was deemed to controversial, but if that's the case, then it's a strange reasoning for a book that includes sections on hell, abortion and war. Finally, I did not like the layout of the ebook version. The "Table of Contents" was easy to navigate but the quotations were centered, which means in an ebook that they were jumbled and unattractive. I hope the publisher fixes this! Overall, it's a worthwhile little book worth perusing and having on one's shelf. * Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com [...] book review bloggers program.

Left me wanting more...

Having never read any Billy Graham before, I came into this reading with hopeful expectation. I was not disappointed. Billy Graham was a man blessed by God who was not afraid to speak his mind on many sensitive topics raging from abortion and addiction to race and war. The quotes were often full of age old wisdom - truths that we all know but often deny simply so that we can continue in behaviors we should not. I was attracted to the book by its cover and the promise of a short read. The black and white photo, obviously taken fifty years or so ago reminded me of a photo of my dad from the same time. Though the book is broken into little snippets of quotes from Billy, it was not as quick a read as I thought it would be. Also, the book only left me wanting more. I understand that these are Billy Graham's words and not scripture, but I still would have liked to see a little fleshing out of some of the statements. Just a bit more from each would have satisfied me, as they were just teasers of the books that Billy Graham has already written. I suppose that to get more than just these appetizers, I'll have to buy the full course meals that are found in his other works. I think I just might have to. I received this book via Thomas Nelson Publishers from their Booksneeze program in exchange for an honest review.

Billy Graham in Quotes

At 92 years old, Billy Graham is still reaching out to individuals to find true contentment in giving their lives over to God. In this newest project, "Billy Graham in Quotes" Franklin Graham and Thomas Nelson gather his most thought provoking quotes (covering seven decades of ministry) to inspire those with a listening ear. As a fan of quotes, I believe these truly will make an impact on the reader. Billy Graham does not mince words but boldly states the truth as found in the Bible. This book contains many chapters with quotes on numerous subjects which still afflict individuals. To name a few: addiction; abortion; anger; anxiety; angels; compromise; death; grief and grace are just a spec of the subjects embarked upon. With 433 pages altogether, this book is great to serve as a tool to have as you experience different difficulties in life. It does not necessarily have to be read straight through. I encourage those who struggle with reading to buy this book as you can gain a lot of knowledge by reading small chapters. I have had the wonderful privilege of reviewing this book for Book Sneeze online. Yes, I recommend~

Great reference for quotes

The book Billy Graham in Quotes is a great reference book authored by his son Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney. Billy Graham used the Bible as the source for his ideas and preaching, and that shows forth through the quotes which were chosen for this anthology. The quotes are organized by topic into chapters relating to one idea/theme relating to life, ranging from work to religion to the Bible to children, and etc. These quotes were taken from his writings from the 1940's to 2010. I'd classify this book as a reference book. It is very well-organized to help the reader find Graham's quotes/thoughts in a specific area of life very easily. It's not a "read it through" type of book, but rather one to refer to, whether to find a quote to illustrate a sermon or paper or just to use in an encouraging fashion. They are referenced in the back to show where each quote was taken from. I did like this book, full of countless quotes from a great Christian example. I found myself flipping back and forth to the reference section in the back to see the dates/source of different quotes. I think I would have preferred at least the date to accompany the quote, and some of the quotes left me wishing to have read them in context rather than just solo. I'd recommend this book to someone who uses little snippets (quotes) on a regular basis. It's not necessarily a book that I'd use in my day-to-day life, but I imagine others might.

Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a wonderful, concise sampling of the famous preacher's words of spiritual wisdom. On "Life," Dr. Graham shares "We must learn to live triumphantly amid the traumas and pressures we face daily." (214) Concerning "The World," he advises "The world judges the Christian by his life, not by his belief." (374) The book is arranged in topical sections including "Abortion," Christianity," "Marriage," "Morals," "Sin," and many more. This makes it easy and quick to find Dr. Graham's comments on a particular subject or problem. End numbers refer the reader to a "Notes" section which lists the date and occasion of each quotation. This world can never hear enough from Billy Graham. His strong testimony has been a beacon to world leaders and corporate CEOs, as well as to millions who, for many years, have filed into large arenas and football stadiums to hear his Biblical wisdom. His ministry continues now in Billy Graham in Quotes. This is a volume fit for private meditation, sermon preparation and reference. But it is mostly a volume to be treasured as words fitly spoken by a true man of God. I highly recommend this book. I received a complimentary review copy of this book from publisher Thomas Nelson. The opinions in this review are my own; I was not required to write a positive analysis.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh.....

A Venerable Goldmine of Wisdom

With a ministry that has spanned more than 70 years, Billy Graham has spoken and written a lot of words. When we think of his most significant statements, they usually boil dime to his simple, consistent explanation of the gospel message: our sin separates us from God, and God sent His Son Jesus to die in the cross for our sins and be resurrected; by faith in Jesus anyone can have their sins forgiven and eternal life. Certainly this message is the most significant for any evangelist. But Billy has communicated more than this . . . much more. Billy's son Franklin introduces Billy Graham in Quotes, a venerable goldmine of wisdom from the writings of the great evangelist. As I explored this volume, I discovered it allows me to: - Understand Billy's thoughts on 107 topics timeless to the Christian life. - Search for usable quotes, arranged alphabetically, for teaching or illustrative purposes. - Find the original source for each quote in Billy's books through endnotes I enjoyed that each quote hardly needs its original context to communicate the essence of Billy's views on a topic.

America's Pastor Speaks Biblical Truth

When it comes to influential Christians, Billy Graham tops the list. Graham's seventy year ministry has impacted millions and has served as a clear example of gospel-driven ministry. Even as Graham ages, his heart for the lost and passion for ministry still stand strong. In his humble introduction to Billy Graham in Quotes, Graham remarks: "My hope is that those who do not know Him (Jesus) as their personal Savior will be moved by the message found in these pages and be drawn by the Holy Spirit to the foot of the cross, where forgiveness is found and salvation through grace is granted." From Franklin Graham's forward and Billy Graham's introduction, it is clear that their goal in this book is to encourage people through thoughts from Billy Graham's life and ministry. However, they are also very clear that the only true source of truth is the Word of God and that all of the thoughts in this book are intended to drive readers back into the Word. This idea is highlighted by the fact that each topic that Graham's quotes are categorized begins with a Biblical passage relating to the topic to be addressed. The scriptural and biblical approach to this volume makes it an excellent resource. When it comes to influential voices who shaped modern evangelicalism, Billy Graham stands as a great man of God seeking to humbly declare the truth of God. This book is a great resource for preachers and ministers who are looking for quotes and inspiring statements of truth from the man that was known for so long and by so many people as America's pastor.

Billy Graham in quotes is a great read!

Book Sneeze recently sent me Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney. Franklin Graham is writing this book about his father. This is a huge book! There are over 400 pages most of which are pages filled with quotes. The point of the book is to take topics like sin, service, marriage, abortion, young people, hope, influence, faith, death, evil, the Bible, conviction, anger, war, time, speech, or the dozens others not mentioned here, and represent Billy Grahams speaking on these ideas. The book represents the 70 years of ministry that Billy Graham had. He is well known as a preacher reaching stadiums full for the God by preaching the gospel. Really he preached more than Jesus as evidenced in this book. I loved this book. A book of quotes didn't on it's own excite me much. I didn't think that there would be much more than a man's words in it. But I was very wrong. I love a few different things about the book. 1- the topical approach. As I read through each section I really got a full view of 70 years of speaking on each topic. 2- The consistency that is found in each section. 3- The powerful approach. I will admit to knowing something is wrong but thinking of that thing as a gray area. After reading a section there is a clear line in the sand. Scripture says something specific and there is nothing gray about it. 4- the way it is not a man's words as the impression left by reading this book. You really can tell that these quotes are a man explaining God's words. There is a power behind the words that is only from God and not something that man can do. This is well worth keeping on a book shelf.

Billy Graham said what?

I love reading quotes and for a good part of my adult life I have read quotes by Billy Graham via the Internet. I know when it comes to the Internet that sometimes people are misquoted so I was excited to find a book that was composed only of Billy Graham's quotes put together by his son Franklin Graham. The book has over 100 topics that are listed alphabetically. It covers about every topic you can think of from abortion to worship. At the beginning of each topic it begins with a key Bible verse, then the quotes on the topic follow. Some of the quotes were very familiar to me while others where knowledgeable information that every child of God knows, then there were some quotes that I would stop, read again and sit and meditate on the words of wisdom that were just shared with me. I would recommend this book as a resource. It is not the kind of book to sit down and read from front to back. Instead, I feel that it would be best read in bits and pieces. With it being categorized into topics, it makes it easy to find the area in which you are looking for, the topic that may be helpful to you at the right moment. Here are a few of my favorite quotes that I found on the pages of the book. "God does not comfort us to make us comfortable, but to make us comforters." Billy Graham "The will of God will never take us where the grace of God cannot sustain us." Billy Graham "The Spirit of God Takes the Word of God and makes the Child of God." Billy Graham **This book was provided to me by the publisher through booksneeze.com in exchange for my honest review.

An Interesting Reference for my Shelf

I've always learned a lot from Billy Graham's writings. This book gives a topical approach to hundreds of short quotations from his teachings. There are quotes from his many books such as The Holy Spirit, Till Armageddon and many more. There are also quotes from Decision magazine and books by other authors containing quotes from Graham. Topics include things such as Repentance, Conscience, Addiction, Conversion and many more. There are about 107 different topics covered in this book. The quotations range from very short ones ("The central message of the Bible is Jesus Christ.") to those consisting of 6 to 8 lines. This book can serve as a devotional by just reading a topic or even just a few quotes each day. It can also be helpful when preaching a topical sermon. It also serves as a peek into Graham's longer writings. If a quote piques one's interest, the endnotes will point the reader to the source. I find I use this more for a reference - looking up a particular topic for a good quotation or to point me to Graham's works where a topic is discussed in more detail. I would not read straight through this work. This would be a good addition to a church library. I received a complimentary copy of this book from Thomas Nelson Publishers. This has not affected my review in any way.

Billy Graham In Quotes

For many years I have held a great respect for Billy Graham. Everything I have ever heard or read about him has always portrayed him as a genuine, authentic man. His preaching of the Bible and unwavering stand for the truth has always impressed me. Billy Graham In Quotes is exactly what the title says. It is a collection of quotes from throughout the life of Billy Graham. The book is divided into chapters, each containing quotes focusing on a specific topic.

Topics include abortion, addiction, angels, character, commitment, deception, end times, family, forgiveness, greed, grief, happiness, heaven, joy, knowledge, love, marriage, money, prayer, repentance, salvation, temptation, time, witnessing, world evangelism, worry, and young people.

Whether or not you've read or heard Billy Graham, you'll love this book

My admiration of Billy Graham goes back to my earliest childhood. I can vividly recall the sermons and books from Billy Graham that my grandfather had on his shelf. I used to listen to those sermons when I visited his farm. In many ways, reading Billy Graham In Quotes was like a walk down memory lane. Billy Graham has been relevant to every generation that has heard him preach because his life and ministry are solidly grounded on the Bible. So every problem that society faces, every challenge that each generation is trying to conquer, every doctrinal argument that needs to be solved, Rev. Graham brings God's Word to bear. This book is arranged topically, and it's amazing to read in every topic the same theme: focus on Jesus, read His Word, bring your life in alignment with His life. Time after time after time the solution is right there! I received this book on my Kindle as a gift from my sister and brother-in-love. I enjoyed reading the book, but the search features and cross-referencing in the ebook format have been a real treat. Whether or not you've heard a Billy Graham sermon or read a Billy Graham book, I am confidant you will thoroughly enjoy Billy Graham In Quotes.

Awesome, exhaustive collection of quotes for Billy Graham fans and supporters

I love quotes. I also love collections of quotations. So, when I had a chance to get BILLY GRAHAM IN QUOTES I seized my opportunity. This book does not disappoint. Franklin, Billy's son, has put together a collection of quotations that span a wide variety of subjects, and that span over 50 years. As one reads this book, one gets a sense of Mr. Graham's heart, his values, his theology, and his ministry. Furthermore, one gets a clear idea of where the best of evangelicalism has been in the 20th century, and where it might being going in the 21st century. These quotes from Billy Graham are arranged by topic. They range from the clichés of an evangelist of yesterday, to some profound insights into the human condition. No matter what the topic, the quotes are easily understood and thought-provoking. This, in my opinion, was Graham's strength: being able to preach and teach the Word of God in a way that speaks to a simple, common person, but at the same time make the intellectual occasionally stop and think about the words he was saying. Graham was the greatest Christian communicator of his generation. This collection of quotes demonstrates this. The only criticism I have of the book is that I would have liked to have seen a more exhaustive index of this collection of nearly 400 pages of quotations.

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh..... Disclosure of Material Connection: I purchased the hardcover copy of the book at Amazon and received the electronic book Billy Graham in Quotes free from Thomas Nelson as part of their blogger review program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Five Stars

Excellent book!

Exactly what it says....

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham is simply that, a large book of Billy Graham quotes. On one hand, I love this book. It is organized by subject, there are lots of quotes on each subject and each subject starts with a quote from scripture. Easy, simple and exactly what it promises to be. Now, the downside of the book, at least for me...I just don't find most of Billy Grahams quotes that inspiring. Not that any of them are wrong, necessarily, but just seeing them pulled out like this, no context, I would say a good 85% of them just fall kind of limp. I will admit that I've never listened to a Billy Graham sermon, not that I disagree with him, just that he doesn't particularly grab me like other preachers. Maybe it's a generational thing. The truths are eternal, but the presentation may vary. One thing this book did do for me, though, is help me see how special scripture really is. This book, the way it's set up, reads almost like the book of Proverbs. But the words of man fall flat where God's words are captivating. Overall, not a bad book, and it's one I'm glad I own. As a teacher, writer and speaker, I'm glad to have a resource like this that is so easy to use. And as an inspirational tome, there are definitely some gems of wisdom in there. As far as general reading, though, without any context to fill in around the quotes, it falls flat. I received this book free from booksneeze.com for this review.

Advice to Live By

Billy Graham is a person whom I have wondered so much about as I have heard so much about him and his preaching. I decided to read Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham in order to know more about him and his beliefs. I was pleasantly surprised by this quote book, and will use it as a reference for many years to come. One of the best things about this book is that the book is divided by topic, and is a large book of quotes. It is not your typical quote book that contains one or two quotes per page. Each page has an average of five to six quotes on it and is divided up by topic. This is particularly useful when you need teaching, encouragement, or advice about a certain topic. The topics are alphabetical and have a huge scope of topics from emotions to religion, to current issues. This book truly is so useful. When a feeling overwhelms us it is often so comforting to read a short quote of wisdom from someone such as Billy Graham. It greatly helped me understand a biblical and Godly perspective on many things. One of my favorite quote sections was the one on anxiety and worry. The practical, everyday life quotes on topics like money, marriage, and family are also invaluable. This is not a book one needs to sit down and read in one sitting, but is an awesome coffee table books that can be picked up by anyone. This book is also wonderful for the new believer or someone who has not fully committed themselves to a Christian life. Anyone can benefit from the wisdom in this book. The words of Billy Graham are a wonderful addition to any book collection.

review billy graham in quotes

Billy Graham has been a powerful voice for decades now.This book is a lovely compilation of some of his teachings as a worldwide known and respected preacher.Compiled by his own son, Franklin Graham, Billy Graham In Quotes is a unparalleled collection of both personal and published works of Billy Graham. It touches a wide range of subjects from marriage to abortion,deception to decision, creation to conviction, just to name a few. In this lovely book, not only when people hear his teachings do they know he knows about God, but they can truly tell that this man knows God in his heart.This would be a great edition to add to your homes permanent library for reference and reflection.It could serve as a great source of comfort and recollection of God's words and promises to us.Sometimes when we are in certain situations we forget to remember the things God has taught us about the subject.I think the easy guide that breaks the quotes down to subject would be great to help out in these situations.It also is sure to list biblical reference for all subjects so that we can find the verses on the particular tpoic in our bibles ourselves with more ease. All in all I would recommend this book for anyone.Especially those who love Billy Graham's crusades. ** Disclosure I received this book free from the publisher through booksneeze book review program in exchange for my honest review.

Wisdom from a giant

Billy Graham In Quotes by Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney is a large compilation of quotes by one of America's greatest and most loved evangelist. Rev. Billy Graham is known worldwide for his great biblical wisdom and eloquent speaking abilities. Personally, I have watched his evangelical crusades for more than fifty years and have always been very moved and inspired by them. When I had a chance to review this book I immediately agreed and have thoroughly enjoyed perusing it. Any reader will find hundreds of scriptures, sermon and personal life-view quotes by this unmatched spiritual mind in the book Billy Graham In Quotes. I believe Franklin Graham (Rev. Graham's son) has done a big favor to the church community in general by putting together this reference material, which represents a devoted Christian life that was well lived. The reader will find a treasure trove of statements on topics like: age; anger; commitment; convictions; money; human nature; lust; grief; I could go on and on. The book includes almost 400 pages of quotes. I will keep my copy in my personal library and recommend Billy Graham In Quotes to my friends. This could be a helpful resource to Sunday School teachers, ministers, and layman alike. Thank you to Thomas Nelson Publishers for my review copy.

A Valuable Rescource

Billy Graham has delivered the gospel message to more people face to face than anyone in history and has ministered on every continent of the world in more than 185 countries. This book is a compilation of sermon illustrations of his 60+ years of ministry. It's a reference work that can also be read as a devotion since so many of his illustrations are inspirational. You can literally open it up pick it up at any place and get something out of it. I found it extremely easy to navigate through and found myself reading it whenever I had a few minutes between projects. I didn't find it too difficult to find something inspirational I could think about throughout the day. It's broken into a wide range of subjects from (A) abortion to (Y) young people. I was disappointed that he couldn't find any subject matter that began with the letter Z (just kidding). I didn't get into every subject area, but the majority of them I found extremely useful. The ONLY thing I wish the book had was a Scripture Index in which you could match up the illustrations with specific Scripture passages. I would recommend this book for both pastor and layperson. I would rate it a solid 4 out of 5 stars. I received this book free of charge in exchange for an honest unbiased review of it's contents.

BIlly Said

As I read through several of these quotes I couldn't stop but wonder how timeless they are. How priceless they've become. Although several things in this Country of ours have changed since Rev. Billy Graham first started his ministry, God's Word hasn't. It remains timeless, unchanging, faithful, and true. That is why these quotes are so powerful, they are words spoked from a man that has spent a lifetime in the Bible. These quotes are evidence of that. Every book he wrote, everything he said, and every message he preached was an overflow of His relationship with Jesus. These are the type of men I want to listen to. Here is a list of some of my favorite Billy Graham quotes, "We do not need a new moral order; the world needs the tried moral order that God handed down at Sinai." "There are things which money cannot buy; which no music can bring; which no social position can claim; which no personal influence can assure, and which no eloquence can command." "How can you keep your min wandering when you pray? Remember what you are doing: talking to God. If you had the opportunity to talk to the president, I doubt if your mind would wander. We have the privilege of talking to someone far greater: the King of Kings." The book is absolutely packed full with great nuggets. Thank you Lord for a man who has showed us what it look like to live well, and even more importantly to finish well!

A little something for everyone

Billy Graham's in Quotes written by his son Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney cover a variety and diversity of topics. The book is not a long drawn out essays in chapter form beating a topic to death but rather a collection of quotations from Graham's sermons, personal notes and conversations with others. There is no need to read the book from cover to cover. If you are interested in a certain topic go directly to that section and read through the quotations, you will be amazed as to how many quotations you can actually take away some form of inspiration or how it relates to your life. While this is not a traditional book, it is organized in chapters based on general topics to make it easier to find what you are looking for. The book should be one that is kept in your personal library as a reference book. The book does not back away from controversial topics but instead brings out Billy Graham's theology and personal philosophy of life in each quotation. I received a free copy of this book from Thomas Nelson through BookSneeze.com in exchange for my honest review of the book.

Billy Graham in Quotes: A Review

I recently received a complimentary copy of Thomas Nelson's new book, Billy Graham in Quotes in exchange for an unbiased review. The book is edited by Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney. It has an attractive cover and is well laid out and easy to maneuver through. I must confess I absorbed the book and carried it from room to room reading large portions at one sitting. I would wager that this is not how the book is meant to be digested, but I took some good lessons away from it nonetheless. I see this book, which is almost 400 pages long, as a reference tool. What does the most famous preacher of our time say about angels? Sin? Christianity? War? The book gives over 100 topics in alphabetical order and each topic contains several quotes from Graham. I personally found the majority of the quotes on each topic quite generic. To me, Graham's message is very plain and not nearly as inspiring as his life. Those looking for deep theology, life-changing testimony or a biography of Graham will need to search out other sources. This book would be a good resource for those preparing church newsletters or bulletins that need a brief quote to begin an article. Overall, I give the layout and style a 4/5 stars, but the content 2/5.

The legacy of Billy Graham

Billy Graham in Quotes is a unique anthology of the thoughts of one of the preeminent Christians of our time. The authors have gleaned material from Graham's seven decades of ministry, drawing from both his published and personal works. The material is then arranged topically for easy reference, covering subjects from A - Y, abortion to young people. Each quote is footnoted so you can find the source of the quotation. Reading through the material, I was struck that none of the quotes are particularly profound or pithy. Rather, than are plain-spoken and down to earth. Having said that, they still communicate hope, truth, redemption, and grace. They reveal Billy Graham's heart for the world and his commitment to the Word of God. While the book is a source of hope and encouragement, it's greatest benefit will be to those who speak or preach, as it is a helpful collection of thoughts and quotes. It is a worthy addition to a speaker's resource library. Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the [...] book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Legendary Collection

Thanks to Booksneeze for giving me a free copy of: Billy Graham in Quotes in exchange for my honest review. And, sorry folks, this will not be one I give away. It is just too good! Billy Graham's family put together a collection of his comments spanning seven decades! Drawn from an unparelleled collection of both personal and published works, Billy Graham provides input on more than one hundred topics, such as suffering, joy, money, addictions, peace, and many more. The book is divided into categories. This means that if you are looking for his "opinion" on peace, you can jump right to that section and hear his voice through the pages. I do think that is hard to actually hear him through words. Reading is one thing. Listening to the legendary Billy Graham is another. But nonetheless, having the opportunity to have his quotations at your fingertips is quite invaluable. Kudos to Thomas Nelson for publishing this collection of quotes from Dr. Graham, spanning 7 decades. Over 100 subjects are covered..everything from creation to greed, integrity to war, abortion to marriage.

Great Inspirational Coffe Table Book

I grew up seeing Billy Graham as a pillar of Christianity and biblical wisdom. I am not sure there is a man on the planet more respected when it comes to Godly Wisdom. This book takes his quotes, breaks them into categories and adds a bible verse for reference. This is not your sit down and read novel, but rather a great collection of inspiration on such topics as: Anger, Anxiety, Children, Commitment, Death, Family, Forgiveness, Grace, Heaven and Hell, Loneliness, Marriage, Patience, Prayer, Right and Wrong, Suffering, and Worry. And yes, all in alphabetical order just as I have listed them here! (Which is great for the type A in me!) For instance, I am right there with him on his thoughts about family. He is quoted as saying, "No subject is closer to my heart than the family.....The moral foundation of our country is in danger of crumbling as families break up and parents neglect their responsibilities." I often refer to the disintegration of the basic family unit as the core of our crumbling society. If there is no commitment and loyalty at home, then where will you show commitment and loyalty. And I echo his words again when he says, "When the family is destroyed, society eventually disintegrates." My ultimate favorite quote about family spoke right to the tone in our house sometimes, "More friction and tensions are caused in a family by tone of voice than for any other one reason." I am often at fault of doing this. Reading Billy's words reminded me again about thinking before I speak and how not only what I say, but how I say it can have long reaching effects on those around me. I enjoyed sitting around sharing these quotes with my husband and talking about how they fit in relation to our life and those around us. So many of Billy Graham's quotes are just good common sense advice for us to read, think about, and use in our lives. Each section is short and concise, easy to flip through and reference the topics you are interested in. This would make a great addition to any coffee table!

A Treasure!

This is not just a book . . . it is a treasure. The impact of Billy Graham's words, prompted by the Holy Spirit, have changed the course of history. "Billy Graham in Quotes," holds the wisdom He has spoken throughout all of his life. The impact of each quote could be used as a daily devotional because they evoke deep spiritual thoughts and will truly draw you nearer to God. Billy Graham says it best in the quote used on the cover: "When the Gospel of Jesus Christ is presented with authority-quoting from the very word of God-He takes that message and drives it supernaturally into the human heart." In over 100 topic sections, quotes from Billy Graham will inspire, convict, and encourage you in your faith walk. His teaching over the years have drawn countless lives to Christ and those treasured words are compiled within this one book. Truly this will be one book that stays on my shelf forever. Don't hesitate to buy this one . . . it's one you'll truly treasure. *I received this book for free in exchange for my unbiased review through the Thomas Nelson BookSneeze program.

Love the quotes on faith

The book contains a lot of quotes on different topics, spanning decades of ministry of the world-renowned evangelist. Those who grew up in the era of evangelistic crusades will treasure this collection, I'm sure. For those of us (like me) whose idea of a "crusade" is a 1-hour Sunday morning worship concert, err celebration, in a super-duper-mega-church, we read this book without the lenses of nostalgia. Whatever your background, you'll find it a substantial compilation. If you ask me, the best are the sections dealing with fundamental truths of the Gospel: faith, evangelism, sin, God, Jesus, Holy Spirit. Leave the light-weight topics to Oprah (oh, you know: anxiety, worry, life, loneliness, etc.). I think Billy Graham has a clear perspective on where man stands in relation to this world, heaven, and hell. He may not be as poetic as C.S. Lewis or as dramatic as Max Lucado, but Graham's ideas on faith and Christianity are affirming and thought-provoking, and well worth a read.

Excellent Resource from a Great Preacher

About Billy Graham: Billy Graham was called to preach over 70 years ago. Hundreds of thousands of believers have been brought to salvation through the simple words he spoke. This book is written by his son, Franklin Graham. It is an amazing resource, perfect for research and/or inspiration. There are quotes for every topic such as anger, children, convictions, faith, family, love, religion, salvation, truth and worship. I would like to share a couple of quotes from the book: On Integrity Integrity means that if our private life was suddenly exposed, we'd have no reason to be ashamed or embarrassed. Integrity means our outward life is consistent with our inner convictions. On peace Peacemaking is a noble vocation...To be a peacemaker, you must know the Peace-Giver. I am greatly impressed with the book and honored to review and share it with my readers. I would recommend this book for any family, school or church library. What a tremendous tribute to Brother Graham! I received this book from the publisher in exchange for my honest review.

Billy Graham - a man of many words!

Billy Graham In Quotes is titled quite appropriately. This book is divided into many categories/topics from Money to Addiction to Love to War. I found many of his thoughts insightful, but there were also some in there that I felt were very repetitive. I didn't necessarily agree with all that was said but I appreciated it the collection all the same. This book is definitely hard to swallow over a short amount of time. It would be much better to read a category or two a day instead of trying to complete the book as if it were a fast-paced novel. Take time to read and to reflect. This book would make a great gift for a family member who A)likes Billy Graham B)Enjoys quotations and/or C)is looking for an inspiring daily devotional that is a little different than what they may be used to. This would be great to add with their current daily devotional. ***I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Superb Compilation

This is a very nice compilation of some of the most significant quotes from Billy Graham, one of the most known evangelist of modern time. His quotes are arranged in topics for easy reference, from Abortion to Young People, covering all major areas of interest, including Children, Heaven, Hell, Marriage, Money, Salvation, and many more. As is his style, Billy Graham always goes directly to the point, not hiding any truth, talking about the Gospel of the Lord as a true believer. Some of his quotes touched me deeply, as for example one on the Commitment section, that says "commitment means burning all bridges behind you". Also, in the Family section, "Your own family circle knows whether Christ lives in you and through you". There are hundred of similar quotes and the organization of the topics was done in a superb way. This book should be part of a permanent library of any serious Christian reader. This book was written by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney and published by Thomas Nelson in 2011 and they were kind enough to send me a copy for reviewing through their Thomas Nelson Book Review Bloggers Program.

Reference Book for the Christian Heart

Billy Graham in Quotes is written by his son Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney. Alphabetically compiled by topic, this quote book is filled with words of wisdom and advice from America's "Pastor to the Presidents." Billy Graham has been preaching the word of God for over 70 years and this book is filled with generous excepts from years worth of sermons, interviews and books. Topics include broad subjects including Christianity, the Bible, prayer, Holy spirit and life. Choice, money, love, parenting... Pride, marriage and joy. Several quotes in this book left me thinking, and more than a few generated an interesting conversation with my spouse. My favorite quote, "Dissapointments are a part of life, we can't always have our own way, and we need to learn to separate what is significant from what is merely annoying..." Wise advice. An in-depth reference-style book for the Christian heart that will help you through troubled times. I received this book free of charge from Booksneeze in exchange for an honest review.

Billy Graham in Quotes-a must have tool!

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is an interesting read. I was skeptical at first that a book filled with someone's quotes would have any form of survival in the market today. This is not a book to read from cover to cover. The book contains quotes from Billy Graham covering various subjects in life from abortion to worship, it literally contains just about any topic a person is struggling with and the reader should use the book as a tool, setting it out on their table with their favorite bible commentaries and the like because Billy Graham's biblical wisdom is very helpful. I was first led to Jesus through Billy Grahams' TV ministries as a teenager. He dared to tell the Truth as it was, not sugar coating the message of the Gospel to make it more palatable to the hearer and he uses the same approach within this book. Every household should have this book for reference, bible studies, or simply to gain better insight in the struggles and trials of life.

I received a copy of this book from [...] for reviewing purposes. This is not my usual type of book to review, which is precisely why I chose it. I wanted to read something a little different. Let me say right off that I really like this book. Billy Graham is perhaps the best known pastor in the world and here are a bunch of his quotes on things from Evil to Heaven and Death. The quotes are categorized which makes this an easy to reference book. I think most people would benefit from having a copy on their night stand or coffee table. Billy Graham provides quotes on over 100 subjects in this book and I think it spans the period of about seven decades. I have heard my parents and grandparents talk a lot about Mr. Graham over the years, but never did I know that he could have this great of an impact on me until I read this book. This book is not only quotes from Billy but quotes taken directly out of God's book itself . This is a great read and kudos to Thomas Nelson for publishing this!

Billy Graham in Quotes

While I am young enough to know Billy Graham best through books and stories; I am old enough to remember when he was a powerhouse name. Billy Graham has always been for a concept then a reality, an idea of what a Christian should be rather then a person. Because of this I was looking forward to reading Billy Graham in Quotes, the man and his own words. Once I started looking through this book I realized that I should have had this book last year when I was in Christian undergrad school. While the quotes are interesting they are quick quips rather than contextual quotes. I would have rather read a book with fewer quotes but more of a story behind his thought. If you are looking for a facebook message or twitter type thought from Billy Graham then this book is perfect for you. I received this book for free from booksneeze.com. The opinion expressed is my own. "If we believe in what God made and what God said, we will believe in the One whom God sent."

Embodiment of Billy Graham

famous Evangelist throughout his lifetime on a variety of topics. After reading through this book (which is quite lengthy, considering it is a book of quotes), I feel that this book is more of the principles and ideals that Billy Graham lived his life by, and believed to be true. I felt like I learned so much about a great man through words that he has spoken over his career. The book is organized well, and is topical, and sorted alphabetically. This book offers up a lot of good sound advice, from a man of God, on topics ranging from angels, abortion, discipline, integrity, judgment, war, and prayer. The book itself is nearly 400 pages, so the alphabetical organization really helps in finding the specific topic you are looking for. Overall, I think that this book of quotations truly embodies the spirit of Billy Graham, and offers valuable insight and wisdom from a man who truly loved God. Great book, well organized, plethora of quotes on a variety of topics!

The Quotable Billy Graham

I am a quote-keeper. I enjoy reading quotes and collecting them, and I am always putting quotes in my notebooks, on my cork board, and on random pieces of paper. Quotes can inspire, they can give advice, and in the case of the book Billy Graham in Quotes, they can give spiritual guidance as well. If, like me, you enjoy reading quotes of wisdom, I encourage you to pick up a copy of this book. It includes quotes on a variety of topics, such as the Bible, creation, faith, life, worry, sin and commitment. At the beginning of topical chapters, a Bible selection (a verse or two) is included to set the theme. Billy Graham is one of the most well-known preachers, authors and evangelists in the Christian community. This book is a good introduction to his thoughts, faith and philosophy. I hope you enjoy! Disclaimer: A complementary copy of Billy Graham in Quotes was provided to me by BookSneeze in return for my honest review.

The Best of the Best

As an avid reader, I'm pretty sure that reading all of Billy Graham's books would've taken a long time. It was great that his son helped compile a list of his dad's workings into one book that covers a plethora of modern day concerns for people. These quotes are very convicting and impactful and I feel inspire to action. I got the eBook version of this from Book Sneeze and it made reading this very easy, within a few hrs (a little over 4 hrs total). This is really a great handy reference book. ------------------------------------------ Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the [...] book review bloggers program.

Great book!

Billy Graham has no doubt been one of the most influential men of the evangelical moment. He has lead hundreds of thousands to Christ, and even though he no longer actively preaches, he still impacts people today. I personally think that you can discover a lot about a person from the words they say. It is one thing to be told "Billy Graham was a spiritual giant who knew and feared the Lord" and to read his very own thoughts throughout the decades. I really enjoyed this particular book, released by Thomas Nelson. This book has over 100 different subjects and which Billy Graham has spoken and is quoted. This would be a great book if you are wanting to use it as a resource and look something up quickly about a particular subject, rather than sit down and read the book cover to cover. This is a great book, and a true treasure to those who like to read quotes.

Billy Graham in Quotes - A Wonderful Book

We are to be the catch basins for the fullness of God. Like a freshly running spring, we are to overflow and let our lives touch the lives of those around us. ~Billy Graham~ I jumped at the chance to review this book and could hardly wait for it to arrive. Just as I thought, it was worth every second of the wait! This collection of quotes spanning Dr. Graham's seven decades in Ministry is not meant to be read straight through, although that is possible and rather enjoyable as it gives a glimpse into the way this powerful man of God thought. Billy Graham in Quotes is meant rather, to be used as a resource or for reference material when a quote might be needed to drive home a point of view. It contains a vast assortment of quotes on 107 topics from one of the most famous Evangelist of all times. Compiled by his son Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney, the quotes touch on a broad range of subjects, both scriptural and practical. They categorized and alphabetized for ease of use and cover areas such as abortion, character, children, church, Jesus, joy, money, race, sin, society, work, and worship. Within the pages of this wonderful book, I was inspired, convicted, strengthened and encouraged. It is a worthy addition to any library and I am grateful to Thomas Nelson Publishers for being given the chance to review it. I gave it 5 stars. I received this book free from the publisher through the Book Sneeze.com [...] book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Great resource to a home library - encouragement from God's word

I never tire of being reminded of God's truth and who He is. Of course,one should always be very mindful of the source and be prepared to dig deeply in God's word yourself to assure it's the truth. I appreciated this book, as it was a look into Billy Graham's thoughts and words in light of a variety topics ranging from Abortion to Worship - it's all there in alphabetical order. Many of his thoughts are not new, but all of what was shared appeared to stem from a deep relationship with Christ and an understanding that the authority of the Bible was the source, first and foremost. In the foreword, his son, Franklin shares how his often "quoted and misquoted" father knew that everything must be held up and compared with the word of God before all else. I appreciated the layout of the book and the ease of finding quotes on particular topics. This is a nice added resource to add to any library.

More than nuggets of wisdom, this is the mother lode!

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham and published by Thomas Nelson is more than just a book of quotes. It is the mother lode of wisdom for everyone and for all ages. The book has quotes from A to Y, so hey, I guess there was nothing regarding Z that made it. Any way, each section is broken out by the quotes on a particular topic. Starting with Billy Graham on Abortion and ending with Billy Graham on Young People. While the book is full of great and memorable quotes, the one I liked the best falls under the Bible category. It simply states, "Every graveyard and every cemetery testify that the Bible is true." Now that is powerful stuff. This is a perfect, easy read on virtually every topic you can think of. Absolutely, unconditionally and highly recommend this book. I was given a copy of the book for free through booksneeze in exchange for an honest review.

Great collection!

I love reading collections of quotes, so I was really excited when I found out I had the opportunity to review Billy Graham in Quotes, which was put together by his son, Franklin Graham. The book features quotes on a million different topics, including prayer, grief, marriage, anxiety, and so on. Each topic is separated into different sections, so it's super simple to navigate to whichever topic may be on your mind. This morning, I had a job interview, and I took this book along with me. Right before I went in, I browsed the section on "Anxiety" and I started to feel less nervous. Just reading the reminders that Billy Graham had to say about everything being in God's hands helped calm my anxious heart! I really love this book! Disclosure: I received this book for review. The opinions are my own.

Warm and wise words

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham This book provides quotes by Billy Graham on about 150 topics. It is admirably organized A to Z by subject, so if you need some guidance from the great preacher, Billy Graham, you will easily find helpful quotes here. Are you concerned about anger, sin, work, heaven, angels, grief, forgiveness, marriage, loneliness, etc.? Each of these topics is covered with many quotes by Graham. Graham's words are balm to my soul. An example in "Billy Graham on the World" is "Our chaotic, confused world has no greater need than to hear the Gospel truth." In the section "Billy Graham on Resurrection" is the quote "Never forget that the resurrection of Christ is in many ways the central event of all history." I collect quotes and admire Billy Graham and highly recommend this book for every Christian or seeker needing advice from this great and Godly man.

Billy Graham Quoted

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a compilation of quotes from renowned author, preacher and evangelist Billy Graham. The book covers numerous topics from age to character to family to hope to money to salvation to worship and more. The book has many uplifting and eye opening quotes that can fit into any situation. The books is beautifully organized and reads more like an insightful novel rather than a compilation of quotes. Reading all the different quotes given by Graham throughout his career truly gives you an insight into who this man really is. A quotation is known as the repetition of one expression as part of another one. The book is laid out in a way that makes it very easy to find what you are looking for. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes to add quotes to either blogs, handmade cards or even scrap booking. It's a beautiful book that should be read by many.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh.....

Billy Graham in Quotes

This book is great! It spans 7 decades! Everything from creation to abortion and marriage and MORE! This is a great resource and a great read! I love anything Billy Graham, and have ever since I went to one of his crusades in Pittsburgh, PA so this read was a delight to me! A quote from Amazon.. "Drawn from an unparelleled collection of both personal and published works, Billy Graham provides input on more than one hundred topics, such as suffering, joy, money, addictions, peace, and many more."

Words of Wisdom & Encouragement across 7 Decades!

If you're like me, you grew up watching the Billy Graham Crusades on television, where he preached the pure, un-altered gospel of Jesus Christ....no fluff needed, just the straight truth from God's Word. As we watched the crusades, hundreds of attendees would go forward to commit their lives to Christ. Time after time, we witnessed the true and amazing "power of the gospel" to turn hearts to Christ. When I saw this new book, Billy Graham in Quotes, compiled by his son, Franklin Graham, I was drawn by the promise of wisdom that it may hold. The book is a collection of quotes that spans the life of the man for over seven decades. They are taken directly from the man who spoke to the hearts of all who heard, from simple ordinary folk to Presidents and world leaders. With over 387 pages of quotes, broken neatly into alphabetized categories, there is sure to be something for everyone within its pages. The book is arranged topically, and covers everything from Addiction and Anger to and Thankfulness and Worship. Each section begins with a scripture reference which beautifully supports the quotes contained within. While this book is not a "page turner" like a best-selling novel, it could easily be used as reference book for daily devotions, during times of personal crisis, or when just a little word of encouragement is needed. The Introduction, written by Billy Graham, aptly begins with Psalm 19:14, "Let the words of my mouth...be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord." He encourages the reader to "refer often to the anchor verse of each subject and let God's Word challenge you, convict you, encourage you, and help you discover His abiding love to all who faithfully follow Him." That's really what this book is all about. This is definitely a book that will grace our library shelves as a family reference book for the years ahead.

Billy Graham in Quotes: GREAT Read

This is a wonderful collection of quotes from Billy Graham on every imaginable topic. I really enjoyed reading and sharing quotes with family, friends and loved ones. Graham has a no frills, common sense approach to preaching the gospel and this collection of quotes is welcomed food for thought. One of my favorite sections was Billy Graham on Children. It's sure to make any parent laugh. Graham also discusses addiction, death and disappointment among other difficult topics. He does so in a kind, loving and non-condescending way that gets his point across. The text isn't preachy, but short, concise and makes for an enjoyable read.

BILLY GRAHAM IN QUOTES

Billy Graham in Quotes is a 2011 book compiled by Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney. It does what it says on the cover. The vast majority of these quotes are taken from Billy Graham's many books. The quotes are arranged topically: "Billy Graham on Abortion," "...on Addiction," "...on Age," America, Angels, Anger, Anxiety, and so forth, all the way down to "Billy Graham on Young People." There are about a hundred topics, with an average of three or four pages devoted to each. The quotes are centered on the page; that takes some getting used to. This book is nearly 400 pages. While this is perfectly understandable given Graham's sixty-plus years of ministry and authorship, it's unusually large for a book of this sort. But it should come as little surprise that the book can get awfully repetitive very quickly. Not that there are any bad or worthless quotes, but there's a great deal of overlap; quantity over quality, as it were. The book could have been cut by a quarter or more without any real damage being done. Graham is almost never witty or clever; his quotes are nearly always simple statements of biblical truth. This isn't a criticism by any means; it's just that he's hardly quotable in the way Ben Franklin or Mark Twain is. This has a further hampering effect on readability, particularly as many of these quotes would really have benefitted from some context. It's also hard for me to imagine much application for this book. It could be used as a topical reference for those with a comprehensive library of Graham's books, I suppose, or as good bathroom reading on its own. I affirm the vast majority of what Graham says in his quotes; I just don't see much need for this particular book. I'd imagine most readers would be better off spending the time reading Graham's actual books (or the Bible). * * * * * Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program.

Wonderfully Simple

Sigh....I absolutely love this book. Billy Graham has recently become my hero (for reasons I will explain in a later post) so when I had the chance to review this book I jumped at it. I'll also fully admit that I haven't read every single little quote yet because I'm still mulling them all over. Anyway, enough about that. Billy Graham in Quotes is a unique collection of the thoughts of the most well known evangelist and pastors of our time. The authors have gleaned material from Graham's seven decades of ministry, drawing from both his published and personal works. The material is then arranged topically for easy reference, covering subjects from A - Y, abortion to young people. Each quote is footnoted so you can find the source of the quotation. A full 387 pages long this book will keep you reading and learning for days. There is nothing particularly profound about any of the quotes. They clearly reflect their author as they are straight shooting, down to earth, and easy to understand. Quotes such as, "once you have been to the foot of the cross, you will never be the same." and "God welcomes our prayers. He is much more concerned about our hearts than our eloquence." are absolutely beautiful in their simplicity. This is a book you will want for your library. I've been using it as part of my devotion time and I am loving it. Graham is a man of integrity and a man who has walked with God steadfastly though his life. He continually points to Jesus and therefore I can read this and enjoy what God can do in a single willing soul.

Years of Blessed Wisdom

This book of quotes is absolutely amazing! Billy Graham truly has wise words to say about almost every topic imaginable from abortion, children, marriage, sin, convictions, end times and everything in between! There are approximately 80 different topics filled with words from interviews, sermons, and personal reflection that will encourage you, sustain you, and provoke your thoughts and prayers. I did not come from a Christian home, but it was a "religious home" in some ways and I remember that anytime a Billy Graham service would come on television we would stop anything we were doing to watch him. His words gave us hope during our personal trials and his reflections on the Word of God were always timely in my life. Receiving this book to review was such a blessing, and while it was not exactly what I was expecting (I expected more quotes about or exposition on scripture), it was even better than I expected because it came from someone who heard the calling to share the gospel to the multitudes, grown in Grace and wisdom, and faithfully served the Lord for many decades. It is a wealth of wisdom that I am proud to have in our home. "I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers in exchange for my honest review."

Whats billy think?

What a wonderful resource and keepsake from a man of God who has done so much to spread the gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ. Quotes are divided in over 100 different topics. Each topic section begins with an appropriate Bible verse (various versions). Quotes span from more than 7 decades of Billy Graham's ministry and are compiled from his published and his personal works. This book is a wonderful and unique record of Billy Graham. Some quotes were very familiar and others where not. I love how the book was arranged by topic and one can easily access Billy Grahams thoughts on a specific topic without having to file through alot of other unrelated quotes. Great for those in a pastoral position, church leadership, evangelism, or for personal study.

what a blessing to have such a wonderful book!

I have to be honest and say that this book has been a long time coming! It is such a thrill to have such amazing little "bite-sized" nuggets of wisdom and encouragement from the greatest evangelist of all time! Over 100 different topics to choose from and a half of a dozen or more quotes spoken by Billy Graham, each pulled from any number of his sermons and authored works. The biggest thing that really helps me is that I can pick up this book and pretty much every time, find something in it that really helps me put things into perspective. I could be going through a very deserted valley in my faith and find just the right thought, as expressed by Dr. Graham, or find myself on top of the world, and he will have been quoted, with scripture references, as to help me remember that God is with me and that he wants nothing but the best for me! º As great as this book is, though, Dr. Graham¡¦s publisher is in the process of releasing his latest book, so appropriately titled, ¡§Coming Home.¡¨ Though, I hope that Billy doesn¡¦t go home anytime soon, I pray that he lives well beyond 100, one can only begin to wonder the amount of incredible insight he will have to share, as he looks back on his life and ministry and what God has done in and through him. I would imagine a ¡§Billy Graham In Quotes Pt. 2¡¨ would be fitting to see hit the shelves somewhere down the road!

Great Resource!

I think I have always known about Billy Graham and his ministry. So when I saw this title, I thought it would be an interesting read, a chance to pull together so much of his insight and wisdom in one place. And it is just that. The book is a collection of Graham's quotes on a variety of subjects like Addiction, Children, Happiness, Patience and Worship. The quotes are organized by topic, making it easy to find his thoughts on any of the subjects, and making a great resource for quotes to include in a sermon. In terms of how the book is organized, I have one gripe. Each quote is footnoted, but I would have rather have had a reference directly under or following the quotes to give some context as to when it was said, to whom and where. It was difficult to get a sense of when in his ministry Graham gave these quotes, and it would have been interesting to see how his thoughts/statements on a topic changed over his decades of ministry. This may have been a quirk with the eBook version, as I think it might have been easier to flip to the footnotes in the physical copy. Despite this gripe, I would recommend the book! All in all, a great resource, just wish it had been organized and annotated a little better.

Timeless and Beautiful

As I read through several of these quotes I couldn't stop but wonder how timeless they are. How priceless they've become. Although several things in this Country of ours have changed since Rev. Billy Graham first started his ministry, God's Word hasn't. It remains timeless, unchanging, faithful, and true. That is why these quotes are so powerful, they are words spoken from a man that has spent a lifetime in the Bible. These quotes are evidence of that. Every book he wrote, everything he said, and every message he preached was an overflow of His relationship with Jesus. These are the type of men I want to listen to. Here is a list of some of my favorite Billy Graham quotes, "We do not need a new moral order; the world needs the tried moral order that God handed down at Sinai." "There are things which money cannot buy; which no music can bring; which no social position can claim; which no personal influence can assure, and which no eloquence can command." "How can you keep your min wandering when you pray? Remember what you are doing: talking to God. If you had the opportunity to talk to the president, I doubt if your mind would wander. We have the privilege of talking to someone far greater: the King of Kings." The book is absolutely packed full with great nuggets. Thank you Lord for a man who has showed us what it look like to live well, and even more importantly to finish well!

Inspirational Quotes From America's Evangelist

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is an impressive volume, yet with an approachable touch for daily life. The quotes from Rev. Graham march by in alphabetically ordered topics ranging from abortion, addiction, age and America, to worry, worship and young people, over 100 topics in all. Readers could use this book as a reference tool or to top off their devotional reading. The foreward by Franklin Graham lays a tone of respect and authority for God's Word as the foundation of these quotes, not the celebrity of his father, Billy Graham. The introduction, written by Billy Graham himself, dated November, 2010, reiterates the authority of Scripture with his own inimitable voice and passion. Chapters range in length from 2-12 pages, with "Billy Graham on Christianity" as the longest. Most of the chapters are 2-3 pages, and they are comprised solely of footnoted quotes. A 40-page appendix traces the citations. The chapter titles are a bit of overkill for me; "Billy Graham on _____" for every chapter seems unnecessary in a book with his name on the cover. This book surprised me. I expected something along the lines of a light gift book for fans and laity. However, with it's tremendous volume, organization and citations, it becomes a valuable reference not only for pastors and writers looking for quotes, but also for anyone looking for the approachable, godly wisdom of a man who won the hearts of millions for Christ. Through BookSneeze® the publisher provided me with a complimentary copy of this book.

Quotes from Billy, well worth the investment

I was anxious to pick up a copy of the new book, "Billy Graham in Quotes" written by Franklin Graham. This book is exactly what it sounds like. It is a list of the famous Billy Graham quotes that have been said throughout the course of his life. A handy trait about this book is it is divided into different headings. For example, page three hundred and three is "Billy Graham on Salvation." When you turn to this page, you will see all the many popular quotes Billy Graham has made on salvation over the course of his life. You can go to page two hundred and five and see what Billy Graham has said about judgment. Each new section of quotes starts with Scripture and then begins with a bunch of the popular quotes of Mr. Graham. Example -------Billy Graham on Eternity p 125---------- Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God. 1 Peter 1:23 "Life is just a schoolroom with a glorious opportunity to prepare us for eternity." "Most people are living for today with barely a thought of eternity." "What you do with Christ here and now decides where you shall spend eternity." You get the picture. It is a very simple layout of the book, but it works quite well. There are tons of quotes listed in this book, and some of these would serve as a great illustration for pastors (such as myself) looking for a final word at the end of the message. I would recommend this book to people of the like and those looking for good, Bible-based quotes to use. There is no better find than this. I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

An inspiration and a challenge

Where does one start? If you've read or have heard Dr. Graham before you know the way he has with words. This book highlight, perhaps, the best of what Dr. Graham has had to say in his long life as an evangelist. In the book, Dr. Graham is quoted on a wide variety of topics such as: Sin, Salvation, the world, Jesus, young people, family, evil, money, and a whole lot more! What you read is straight-from-the-heart, no-holds-barred, and uncompromising. Billy says what he means, means what he says for sure. To quote: "If we are at peace with this world, it may be because we have sold out to it and compromised with it." - From the chapter Billy Graham on compromise. My only complaint, if you could even call it that, is the structure of the book itself. More to the point, how the chapters are ordered. Perhaps I've ready way to many Christian books, but it is odd to find Jesus in the middle of the book, rather than at the end. Or maybe not! One thing is for sure, I can say this isn't a book you would regret taking the time to read. It will both inspire and challenge you, for which you will be all the more better because of it. And as always: I have received this book free for my review through Booksneeze. In no way was my review influenced by the author or publisher of this book.

Life Lessons

Billy Graham In Quotes By Franklin Graham A well written book presenting quotes of Dr. Graham on a wide variety of topics and issues. I feel if everyone would study this book that we would have a much better society. I appreciate Dr. Graham's ministry and that he is still involved in ministry at his age and with his health issues. I feel that the book would have been better with KJV references, I am saddened that we seem to have drifted away from using this text that has lasted for 400 years. I appreciate all the effort that it took to compile and document the quotes from his sermons and books. Much wisdom can be gained through the study of this book!

Heart Warming....

Product Description A stunning collection of quotes from a longtime warrior for Christ. Drawn from an unparelleled collection of both personal and published works, Billy Graham provides input on more than one hundred topics, such as suffering, joy, money, addictions, peace, and many more. This book is amazingly huge and is a collection of quotes dating all the way back to nearly 70 years ago. I enjoyed reading these quotes and found myself thinking that these were great "words of wisdom." This is not really a book that I would normally sit down to read page per page; however, each quote is amazing in its own way. The publisher provided me with a complimentary copy of this book or advanced reading copy through BookSneeze® for writing this review. I was not required to write a positive review.

A wonderful book to have

This is my first time reading a book by Rev. Billy Graham. This book is a thick book of 387 pages of quotes, divided into different topics. When reading a specific title, for example on "time"....I can just read a quote and think about it. I feel like through this quotes, which have their base on the scripture, God's words are spoken. And thru reading a quote, I can get convicted and pray over whatever thoughts I have from reading it. For example, Billy Graham's quote "Life is short; none of us knows how long we have. Live each day as if it were your last - for someday it will be." convicted me on my use of time to really embrace relationships, do what matters for eternity and to live each day to the fullest. Another quote "Only God Himself fully appreciates the influence of a Christian mother in the molding of character in her children" on Parents encourages me whenever I feel like it is too hard to teach or discipline my kid. A quote of prayer "Prayer is more than a plea, it is a place where we must spend time if we are to learn its power." is an encouragement for me to keep on praying, to spend my precious time on to be able to learn its power. Reading a quote or two may not replace reading the bible or listening to a sermon but it can be a simple reminder on a specific topic or an encouragement on a card. I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review.

Honoring Complilation of Quotes Spanning 7 Decades of Evangelistic Ministry

There is so much that I appreciate about the life and ministry of Billy Graham that I was eager to review this compilation of quotes gathered by his son and arranged topically in this anthology work suitable for ones personal library or for a gift. The softcover binding is simple yet attractive and the chapters or topics are easily perused or searched through. In reading this volume which I received as a review copy, I found many of the quotes to be engaging and true, liking this one in particular: No situation is beyond God's control. Over my wife's desk are these words: "Fear not the future; God is already there." In his work as an evangelist and preacher, Dr. Billy Graham sough to bring the wisdom of God's word to daily life. He believed that Christianity wasn't simply about being relevant, but about having a heart for the Word of God and striving to obey Him in all things. This compilation is an honoring look as the words which he spoke for the glory of God. *This book was gratefully received from Thomas Nelson at no cost in exchange for my agreement to post this review.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh.....

For instance: On the Bible: The Bible is the only Book in the world that predicts the future. The Bible is more modern than tomorrow morning's newspaper. On Heaven: Only one answer will give a person the certain privilege, the joy, of entering heaven. "Because I have believed in Jesus Christ and accepted Him as my Savior. On Sin: Neither the devil nor the world, nor even our own evil heart can compel us to sin It must be by our own consent and will. On Suffering: The most remarkable thing about suffering is that God can use it for our good.

Disclaimer: I was given this ebook by BookSneeze in exchange for a review. This is my honest opinion on the book.

Great Resource

I had never read anything by Billy Graham so I was looking forward to reading a compilation of his quotes. It's organized really well so you can read it cover to cover or just read the sections that are applicable to you. There is a Bible verse to go with the theme and then pages of quotes on the subject by Mr. Graham. I felt as though I was in a church listening to sermons by Graham as I read through the book. It was very inspirational, enjoyable to read and I took notes throughout the book. A great addition to my personal library and I think it'll be a good reference to go back to in the future.

Billy Graham in Quotes- A man of many words

When I saw the offering of this book I was excited. As a Christian man who grew up in some of the most popular televised crusades of Billy Graham's career, this book is pretty much made for a man like me. I am in full time ministry and often find myself wanting the insight of men of God from days gone by. I enjoy quotes from Spurgeon, A.W. Pink, C.S. Lewis, and many more preachers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The book is well organized with Billy Graham's thoughts and insights on dozens of topics. I especially enjoyed the quotes regarding evangelism, Jesus Christ, and others that mix Scripture with the experience of years walking with and serving the Lord. As I have grown in my knowledge of God's Word and become an evangelist myself, called by God's grace to equip others in sharing the Gospel, I have found that Mr. Graham and I do not agree on all issues. Nonetheless, this book is packed with wisdom from God's Word and you can never go wrong with that. This book would make a great addition to your nightstand, and could be a good reference for many occasions. I highly recommend it and would welcome additional editions of this book and others like it. We reviewed this book for Booksneeze.com and received a free digital copy of the book for review purposes.

Good Quotes by Billy Graham

Billy Graham in Quotes is a collection of personal and published quotes edited by his son Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney. I have enjoyed reading some of Billy Graham's books over the years and so I was looking forward to reading a compilation of quotes from him. I thought it would be a great get to read quotes that spanned his lifetime. It is kind of like getting a "best of" compilation. The book is broken up into chapters that consist of quotes focused around a variety of topics. It is really interesting to read his thoughts around different topics that we all have to deal with in life. I appreciate that Billy focuses himself on Jesus Christ and his quotes reflect that he knows Jesus is the answer for the world today. He has years of experience and many lessons learned. I appreciate learning from men who have walked with the Lord for years. I enjoyed reading through the quotes and I would recommend this book to others as well. I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their book review bloggers program

Billy Graham in Quotes By Franklin Graham - A great read!

Billy Graham in Quotes By Franklin Graham is a collection of excellent quotes from one of the best known American pastors from the past fifty or sixty years. This book covers everything from his views on abortion, America, the Church, the Cross, the End Times, Heaven, loneliness, grief, race, sin, truth, and the Word of God. There are quotes from him on just about any topic you can think of in this book, and I highly recommend it. It really is a great read. I would note that this book is probably better as a reference for looking up words of wisdom about a certain subject rather than a book that you would sit down to read all of it at one time. Here are some of my favorite quotes from the book: "We have so many battles going on in America today that we should be a people of prayer. Our government needs prayer. Our leaders need prayer. Our schools need prayer. Our youth need prayers. Our families need prayer." "Historians will probably call our era 'the age of anxiety'. Anxiety is the natural result when our hopes are centered in anything short of God and His will for us." "Only the Christian faith claims that its Leader died and rose again and is alive at this moment. Many gravestones carry the inscription, 'Here lies ...,' but on Christ's tomb are emblazoned the words, 'He is not here.'" Again, this is a great resource for anyone who has been touched by the messages and words of such a great pastor. Note: The publisher provided me with a complimentary copy of this book or advanced reading copy through BookSneeze® for writing this review. I was not required to write a positive review.

Billy Graham Quotes

You really can't go wrong with a book of quotes from Billy Graham. As one of the most highly respected individuals in the Christian world, Graham has shared an amazing wealth of knowledge and wisdom with the world when it comes to Christian living. I can't imagine how difficult it had to have been to compile this book of quotes from the vast amount of work Graham has been a part of. The book is divided into many chapters, alphabetically, ranging from angels and anxiety, loneliness and love and worry and worship. Almost any topic you can think of is covered somewhere among the pages of this book. I loved the range of material covered and I also love that each section is introduced with a Bible verse which is a reminder of where the ultimate truth comes from. Disclosure: I received this book for free as part of BookSneeze's Book Review program.

Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham has preached a lot of sermons, of that there is no doubt. God has truly blessed this mighty warrior of the Word, and this book of quotations from his years of sermons and speeches shows it. Franklin Graham has done a wonderful job of researching the years and years of words that has come from his father's legacy of ministry, and has put together a wonderful collection of quotes that serve to lift and encourage, but also share the truth of the Gospel. I would fully recommend this reference to any who are fans of the great Billy Graham, and to those who need doses of scriptural truth injected into their hearts.

Billy Graham in Quotes

"Billy Graham in Quotes," a good reference book for all you Billy Graham fans. I have never read much of his material, so would not fit into this category. However, for you not so great Billy Graham fans, I did think that some of the quotes were rather self-explanatory and that they did push it a bit, and use lots of quotes saying the same thing. However, I did mark a few quotes here and there which I did find particularly helpful. But, with 387 pages full of quotes you'd hope that there would be a few that you might find helpful. Some quotes I did find to be a bit pointless, like they were there to fill up space and didn't really say much. Since it is divided into topical sections, I would love it when looking for advice on a particular topic, and it covers practically every topic under the sun. I read this book the whole way through, cover to cover, and did find it a little dry in places, but that is partly my fault, because I don't think that it is designed to be a book read cover to cover. It is designed as a reference book, and if you don't read the book in the right way, sometimes it is a little hard to get something out of it.

Good reference book.

So in this installment of reading and reviewing books by BookSneeze.com I am reviewing another e-book. This one is "quotes by Billy Graham". This book is exactly how I expected it to be - a bunch of topics and quotes from Billy Graham (most specifically his books). It was enjoyable to see so many and such vast topics. Various topics would have an air of such grace and mercy and others had deep conviction to them. All of the quotes that I read seemed to have great Biblical truths to them and you can tell that much depth has been dug through these words. Overall I really enjoyed this book and I am going to use this as a good reference guide for quotes from Billy Graham in my writings. (although I received this book from booksneeze.com my opinions are my own and I was not told in any way to give a favorable review).

a good guideline for strengthening christian values and life in general.

Where I grew up, Winona Lake is just a few miles away. I think almost everyone in our area has visited the Billy Sunday home and where also Reverand Billy Graham got his start. So, I was excited to get my hands on this gem of a book. With over one hundred topics touched upon, and over four hundred pages, Billy Graham in Quotes is a good guideline for strengthening christian values and life in general. The book is easy to read, and I really like the likeness of the Reverend on the cover. This would be a great resource for personal use, reference or for teaching in Sunday School.

Insightful thoughts into a great variety of issues

This book is organized by topics, 107 different topics to be exact. Each topic is presented with an "anchor verse," a Bible verse that addresses that issue. Some of the topics covered include addiction, angels, character, children, death, hell, hope, imagination, integrity, and race, just to name a few. Each quote is presented as one to five sentences in length. They don't just address the surface of the issue, but dig deeper for greater wisdom and understanding. In addition, the quotes often give appropriate responses for these issues in our communities, churches, families, or our lives. Brilliantly done. I found "Billy Graham in Quotes" quite interesting. His quotes challenge you to consider a wide variety of issues, to think more deeply about them, to understand why you hold the opinions that you do, and even inspires you to want to share the ideas behind his quotes with others. Initially, I was concerned that the book would not be able to hold my attention because it's not like a fiction book that makes you want to keep reading to find out what would happen next. However, the organization of the quotes is done extremely well. Even without continuity from quote to quote or topic to topic, almost every quote is so good that it grabs your attention and makes you keep reading to see what else Billy Graham had to say. I definitely feel that Billy Graham successfully convened Biblical truth. I would recommend this book to all my friends. I think this book would be interesting to anyone who is curious about the issues addressed in the book, regardless of their faith. I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

Great book of Quotes

My first impression of this book after looking it over was, wow, it really is just quotes. After the introduction everything you read is categorized by subject and it is from a direct quote from Billy Graham either through speaking or written from his books. I really enjoyed reading the quotes, which kind of surprised me, I mean, it's a book of quotes. You would think it would get boring after a while, but each subject listed was timely and relevant. I also liked the book of quotes because I like to write and I use inspirational quotes in writing quite often. And this book is full of inspirational quotes and truths from Billy Graham, and he uses scripture to back up what he is talking about. The only thing I would have changed about the book would be to have some small paragraph or two at the beginning of each subject chapter just to break up the monotony of reading quotes. This book does make me want to read other books by Billy Graham. This book leaves you with wanting more. And maybe that was the point!

A life through which Truth shines

"Most of us know about God, but that is quite different from knowing God." - Billy Graham (p.147, "On God") In an age in which even truth about God and Christianity can be reframed into all shapes and sizes, and people tend to believe in versions of truth that feel the most convenient or sound the most sophisticated, it is easy to become disoriented and discouraged. Isn't faith supposed to be a simple thing? Why then are conversations surrounding God so filled with disagreement, cynicism, weariness? Why are so many arguments between science/religion still limited to the battlegrounds of reason when everyone says it's the life/the testimony that really matters? Does that imply that few people are truly living a transparent life that shines with grace from God? These are tough questions that, I think, in part comes down to the distinction between knowing about God vs. knowing God. And reading Billy Graham in Quotes, I have no doubt as to how very intimately this man knows God (and not just about God), in God's presence and God's Word. I also see how he truly experiences the living Word by applying it in action, with joy and conviction, across all aspects of life. I had been hesitant about this book at first because quotes often lose their meaning/power when presented out of context. However, this collection seems different, and many of the quotes have spoken powerfully to me. Perhaps it is because the quotes have a kind of transparency to them; never distracting, never self-focused, never self-righteous, all of them simply points back to Christ and is rooted in the Bible and God's love. This book is best read not in a single sitting, but over time; it is one of those books that will be helpful to keep close by and within arm's reach, be it for reference, for wisdom, or for strength. May everyone who read it be encouraged to, likewise, walk and rest upon God's promises, so that the light of truth may truly, truly shine through. "Some people think that going to church on Sunday and owning a dust-covered Bible makes a person a Christian. That is not true. A Christian is one in whom Christ dwells, and the person's life will give evidence of this." - Billy Graham (p.57, "On Christianity") "For the Christian, peace is not simply the absence of conflict, or any other artificial state the world has to offer. Rather it is the deep, abiding peace only Jesus Christ brings to the heart." - Billy Graham (p.252, "On Peace") Disclosure of Material Connection: I received this book for free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program.

Words of Wisdom to every Generation

As a young person, there is something so admirable, so honorable to me such as the life of Reverend Billy Graham. Very few examples of life long devotion exist. At least, very few who have not fallen from the grace they preach. While Reverend Graham would probably suggest that he is the first to know of all of his fallings - the beauty is - he is also first to know of Grace, Freedom, and forgiveness. This is not true because of his "fame." This is not true because he is a household name. It is true because he knows Jesus. He knows Jesus. And that beautiful intimacy is revealed in his life, his words, and his teachings. It is that very life, those very words, and that simple dedication which culminates into this compilation "Billy Graham in Quotes." I respect this book highly and am able to easily glean from years of wisdom, study, and a life well lived. It is that accessible style and openness which makes this book a gift to any reader. Many teachers have instructed me "Less is More." This books unique short stylistic affect allows the weight of that saying to be true. I hope to be able to take the lessons diligently spent in Reverend Graham's life and writings forward with me as I move through life. May we each glimpse that Grace which formed the Reverend's life.

When a Wise Person Speaks, Pay Attention

When a wise person speaks, pay attention. I recently obtained Billy Graham in Quotes, a fabulous resource for speakers and writers. This excellent work captures thousands of inspiring thoughts from Dr. Graham's books, articles, sermons and personal works. There are nuggets of wisdom concerning just about every topic related to spirituality, relationships, and life in general. It's a real treasure trove, and has already proven itself useful for the new book I'm writing.

Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham in Quotes is a wonderful collection of Graham quotes from his published works and personal writings. The quotations are organized by topic and are easy to access. This volume is an outstanding reference book as well as a remarkable tribute to Graham's seven decades of ministry. Dr. Graham's words are both encouraging and challenging. While this complimentary book was provided for review by Thomas Nelson Publishers, no other compensation was given. All remarks are my personal and honest opinions.

Quotes

Billy Graham in Quotes By: Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney Billy Graham is the greatest evangelist of my lifetime. He is a true legend and hero of the faith. So who wouldn't want to know what he had to say about all sorts of different issues. His son, Franklin, organized and compiled this book that is a great edition to any pastor or writer's collection. The depth of knowledge and history of this book is amazing! Every issues from race,children, bible, America. It's all in this great collection. It even lists where the quotes come from. Simply a great book to own.

A Good gift book, or to have if you like Billy Graham

I chose those this book in particular because as soon as I saw it, I knew my mother would love it. And let me tell you, she is going to have plenty of Billy Graham snippets to read! I thought this would be more of a booklet, one of those cutsie little bedside table things that are a dime a dozen, designed for a little warm, fuzzy that tops off a gift set or something as such. Not this one. This is a hardback, thick and full of whole passages of Graham's heart poured out on all sorts of matters. He speaks hope and encouragement, so you definitely get your warm fuzzies. But Graham also speaks it real, keeping things in perspective. Graham has written many books, and this one might be one that either sends you running for more, or it might be enough to get your fill. Either way, it's A LOT of Billy Graham. It's a good pick-up,put-down sort of book, one that I think I would most likely only get...for my mother, who will like it.

Many Uses For This Book of Quotes

Each day I've been reading a chapter from the book Billy Graham in Quotes. I purchased this keepsake book from Amazon because I enjoy quoting people and inspiring others, especially on Twitter @LifeVerse and on Facebook. The first thing I noticed when I received the book is the structure and organization...I really like the chapters arranged by topic from A to Z. Since the quotes are arranged by topic and grouped together, one thought might expand on another. While gathering information for leading a bible study, I'll look in the chapter on bible study, grace, salvation, or living the Christian life. Other topics include Billy Graham quotes on grief, happiness, marriage, money and death. There are many useful reasons to own a book on quotes. It's popular to use quotes in social media, yet they can also be shared when you insert them into a greeting card in your own handwriting. Use them as a signature line on your emails or share them at a business meeting for discussion. Incorporate them into a bible study lesson or a blog article you are writing. Creative people can find inspiration for art, crafts or jewelry designs based on the thoughtful words. The possibilities are endless. I was so pleased with my book, when I saw Book Sneeze offering the same book in electronic copy I picked up a second copy for my Kindle reader. Now I can copy and past the quote into an article, instead of typing out the words and possibly making a mistake. Since I own two copies you can assume that I really enjoyed this book! I think I'll be giving it as a Father's Day gift to a few family members as well. Shhh.....

I have always been a lover of quotes and words! Billy Graham’s book of his own personal quotes on a variety of topics is profoundly true, interesting and inspirational. Beyond just being entertaining is some areas...you will likely find yourself smiling as you read. 😇

Five Stars

This book is just awesome. It is filled with all with Billy Graham quotes which is priceless. I am happy to own this and always refer to it when I need strength. Thanks and I would definitely recommend this to anyone since he is a true follower of Jesus Christ.

I have to say almost perfection

I like the Book. But it seems I was charged for three. One for $13. plus 1 $12. plus and Plus.and 1 $9. plus.

Five Stars

Excellent book!

Great

This was a really delightful book full of little treasures! I really enjoyed reading the quotes from this wise and admirable man, I dont think there will be another guy like him for a long time....especially with the downhill slope of America and Christianity in general. I really hope that his quotes will impact people and help them see Christ and their surroundings more clearly. His perspectives are truly beautiful, and I believe that comes out of spending more and more time with God. Let's learn from this faithful man, and learn to be more focused on Christ instead of on how our life "looks" to ourselves and to others. Appearances are not everything, and even if you can fool yourself and everyone else, you cannot fool God.

Highly Recommended

Billy Graham is timeless! His passion for people and the gospel is stirring no matter what denomination you claim. If you are a christian he most likely has impacted your life in more ways than you know. This book was produced in a topological fashion and is by far one of the best compilations of quotes by ANY Christian Evangelical. It is very easy to use even as a reference for getting a quote for a sermon because of the organization of the book. The book is very comprehensive and inspirational with a quote for almost any situation in your life. It is a great coffee table book for people to pick up and read quickly as well. I would Highly recommend this book to a friend and may even give one as a gift

Great Book

Billy Graham in Quotes is a wonderful book full of quotes from Billy Graham, compiled by his son Franklin and publisher Donna Lee Toney. This book is broken into different topic sections which vary. Addiction, Bible, character, marriage, family, commitment, life, and religion are only a few of the many topics covered in quotes from this 433 page resource. I love this book, though it might not be in my top 10. What made this book difficult to enjoy fully was the nature of its purpose. This book isn't necessarily ideal for "life changing" reading, but it was fascinating to see into the beliefs and statements of Billy Graham. One of my favorite quotes from this book was simple but profound, "Our lives speak loudly to those around us, especially the children in our home."

Better to Read Over Time

The title Billy Graham in Quotes is a complete description of this book. Broken down into multiple section of varying topics, all of which relate back to Jesus the Christ and God, serves as a compilation of touching and inspirational quotes that were developed and shared during the life of Billy Graham. With each turn of the page, you are introduced to incredibly insightful quotes that allow you the opportunity to expand upon your faith. I found it to be incredibly helpful that the quotes were divided into appropriate sections; this allowed me to search for different questions much more easily. If you want to look back and reflect upon one of your favorite Graham quotes, all you need to do is find the appropriate section. Although the book is filled with truly inspiring words, I would not recommend reading this book in its entirety during one sitting. Doing so causes you to miss quotes that would have meant something to you, and does not allow you sufficient time to reflect upon them and apply them to your own life. I would highly suggest that if you were to read this book, that you do so over time. This will allow the words of Billy Graham to touch you in ways you never imagined. *I received this book free from Thomas Nelson Publishers as part of their BookSneeze.com book review bloggers program.

Billy Graham in Quotes

I received a copy of this book "Billy Graham in Quotes" by Franklin Graham and was really impressed with this book. I hold Billy Graham to a higher standard than other pastors, mainly because I have heard him my whole life, and was really impressed by this book. I have used this book mainly as a reference guide, due to the fact that it's really hard for me to sit down and read just quotes on different subjects over and over again. This book covers almost every topic you can think of from money to love to marriage to kids. I would definitely recommend this book over again to anyone that needs a reference guide for many different subjects. I am giving this book a 5 out of 5 star rating.

Great Resource

This is a wonderful book. It's not one to sit and read through in one sitting (although I found myself flipping from topic to topic and reading for quite a while!) but is an excellent resource. Quotes are organized by topic and the topics are presented alphabetically. Each quote is footnoted and a detailed section at the back of the book identifies the work from which each quote is taken. This would be a great addition to any bookshelf.

Billy Graham in Quotes

Billy Graham in quotes you say? I will read almost anything by/about Billy Graham or his wife. To have him in quotes is very handy. The book is formatted in a very organized fashion. These quotes are nicely put under categories for easy reference. You could look up a number of topics to read what Mr. Graham thought. Gleaning from his knowledge of the Bible, his life experience and heart for people was inspiring, convicting and good reminders. This was a book I would read a bit here and there, letting his words sink in. It is a perfect coffee table book or bedside table for quick reference. The cover is handsomely done as well.

Timeless quotes from a timeless preacher

Growing up in a non-religious home I only heard the name Billy Graham and I never watched any of his crusades. I became a Christian as a teen and became more familiar with Billy Graham. I've recently become familiar with his books and have grown to adore his writings. This book is an amazing work of compilations of quotes from his sermons and other books he has written. It is an inspiring and thought-provoking read. The scripture that is offered before each section of quotes is great! Billy's quotes help you really think about God's word and put it into everyday living. The print and layout of every page makes it easy to read and also easy to use as a resource guide. This book is a great read for the saved as well as the unsaved. It can be a great witnessing tool. It reads like a devotional, so it doesn't take long to read if you aren't an avid reader. I appreciate Billy Graham's heartfelt, simple messages that help you think through life's circumstances. 'I would highly recommend this book for others to read!

Daily dose of inspiration

I had the privilege of reading Bill Graham in Quotes penned by Franklin Graham and Donna Lee Toney. This book was beautifully written. It is the perfect daily dose of Christianity and inspiration. The simplistic writing style and wonderful breakdown by category makes it the perfect companion to your bible. If you are a Christian person I am guessing (like me) this book will be living on your night stand next to your bible. It would also make for a beautiful gift for a loved one. I plan to purchase this book for a couple of people in my life who I know would also be equally inspired.

Excellent!

This is an excellent compendium of quotes by Billy Graham. The front cover is well-designed and has an early black-and-white photo of Rev. Graham. The margins are wide and the pages are not crowded. The quotes selected span the gamut from Abortion to Youth. Graham's essential hopefulness comes through on every page of this fine text. 5 stars of 5.

Billy Graham and his impact on my life //

I had the amazing privilege as a young high schooler to see one of my role models Billy Graham in person at one of his crusade events in Jacksonville. The year was 2000 and the event was held at what is now known as EverBank Arena. It was packed to capacity. The choir was massive. The atmosphere spiritual. But we were there not to hear a man, but to worship God. I will never forget that evening. And there was no denying the man with the most enthusiasm in the arena was Billy. I have been intrigued by Billy's leadership since I first heard about him as a child from my parents. He has been a role model of mine ever since. The Christian Post shares these comments about Billy: Graham has preached the Gospel to nearly 215 million people in more than 185 countries and territories around the globe, not counting those he's reached through television and other forms of broadcasting, according to the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association website. His counsel has been sought by U.S. presidents. He has written 31 books, and has been named to Gallup's annual "Ten Most Admired Men in the World" list 56 times. Billy Graham has been the most consistent Christian leader of my life time. Not perfect, but in my opinion never faltering. He has been determined, even in his later years, to lift up Jesus in all that he does. As one of the greatest pastors of our time, we can all learn from him. I was excited a couple of months ago when I received an ebook, Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham (Billy's son). As a individual who writes weekly and loves books, the more resources I have at my possession the better. To have a resource like this, which is nothing but quotes from Billy, on an array of topics is perfect for any writer or blogger. As well as a great resource for guidance on many subjects and life's difficlutiies. Proverbs 1:5 (ESV) Let the wise hear and increase in learning, and the one who understands obtain guidance... This book is also a perfect resource for a graduate or someone who loves the ministry of Billy Graham. I'd urge you to check it out on Amazon and see what you think...

The quotable Graham

Kudos to Thomas Nelson for publishing this collection of quotes from Dr. Graham, spanning 7 decades. Over 100 subjects are covered..everything from creation to greed, integrity to war, abortion to marriage. The quotes are taken from the elder Graham's published and personal works. This is not only an invaluable resource, but maybe just as much a tribute to Dr. Graham's ministry spanning some 70 years. Pick up a copy today and be blessed.

Quotable

Billy Graham in Quotes by Franklin Graham with Donna Lee Toney is a wonderful book. Reading quotes are, in my opinion, tiny insights into the authors mind. One gets the sense that Mr. Graham was on a much higher level or understanding than a lot of us. This was an ejoyable read.

The Wise Billy Graham

Over the many years, Billy Graham has written some wonderful books. Billy Graham in Quotes By Franklin Graham is a collection of quotes on various subjects like Abortion, the Bible, Anxiety, Church, Comfort, Death, Grace, Faith etc. It is a great book to have, and actually gave me a lot of encouragment.

Great resource for writers

This is a great resource for writers. The quotes are categorized very well and makes it for easy access when writing or speaking and you need a good quote. I have also found this book to be beneficial when just wanting to read.

Surprising great read

Was skeptical about a book of quotes. Not sure it would be somethng I would enjoy. Not only did I enjoy it I also learned from it. Book has been very beneficial to my Christian walk. The book covers topics from greed to persecution and so on. Topics are arranged in alphabetical order. Some many quotes to live by in this book. The book was a study in itself and challenged me in different areas of my life. Highly recomend as both an enjoyable and educational read.

Most wonderful evangelist ever is billy Graham!

Rev. Billy Graham! Need I say more?!

One of the great men of our century

How can you go wrong with Billy Graham? Very insightful. Never miss a chance to see his sermons (historical) on TV.

Every page is a blessing

I'm 71 years old, I wish I had purchased this book twenty years ago so I could remember everything I read in the book

Billy Graham in Quotes- a nice volume of wisdom from one of Christianity's greats

Billy Graham in quotes you say? I haven't read much about or by Billy Graham, honestly. But, to have him in quotes is very handy. The book is formatted in a very organized fashion. These quotes are nicely put under categories for easy reference to each speaking engagement or text they were drawn from. Even if I do not agree with some crusade type evangelism techniques or theologically him on every issue, some of which I reaffirmed our variances in theology during this overview. We could not in good faith say that Graham was anything but a man of God who has cared for lost and dying souls. God has certainly used him to His Glory with Graham's life that is not over yet and with this book! I recommend it for pastors reference, a nice discussion book or a go to book to get one of the world's greats perspective. The book was provided free from the publisher in exchange for this review, a positive review was not required.
