This DVD was supposed to arrive in 3-5 days, but it took over 3 weeks. So I couldn't give it as a Christmas gift. I will never buy from Amazon again.
Summary of Crusade - The Life of Billy Graham
He has preached to more people than anyone else in history. Now, go behind the scenes to meet the man himself and witness the power of the Graham organization as it mobilizes millions of followers worldwide. Experience the inspiration of a Billy Graham crusade, from opening hymns with Cliff Barrows and the choir, to the personal testimony of famous personalities, and the message of the man himself who still pursues his 50-year mission.Billy Graham has supposedly preached to more people than any other man in history. Raised on a dairy farm in North Carolina, he grew up to become the most famous and influential preacher of the 20th century, a friend and confidante to kings and presidents. Through interviews with close friends and associates, vintage and recent footage, and exploration of the historical record, the documentary, although by no means a probing exposé, paints a cogent and reasonably evenhanded portrait of the man born William Franklin Graham. He appears as the end of a long line of American evangelical preachers, from George Whitfield of the first Christian Awakening though the vaudeville antics of Billy Sunday. Graham taught himself preaching working as a Fuller Brush salesman, giving away the gospel along with the mops and brooms. With the evangelical team he assembled in the 1940s--Cliff Barrows and George Beverly Shea--Graham built a worldwide empire. A revival for 60,000 people in Portland, Oregon, is followed from inception to completion. Graham's politics are explored--H.R. Haldeman speaks about Graham's relationship with President Nixon; Jesse Jackson is candid on Graham and civil rights--and an in-depth interview with Graham follows the documentary, covering everything from his break with the fundamentalism of Bob Jones to his relationships with powerful media figures. --Laura Mirsky
