1.) Billy Graham tells of a time, during the early years of his preaching ministry, when he was due to lead a crusade meeting in a town in South Carolina, and he needed to mail a letter. He asked a little boy in the main street how he could get to the post office.
After the boy had given him directions, Billy said, "If you come to the central Baptist church tonight, I'll tell you how to get to heaven."
The boy replied, "No thanks, you don't even know how to get to the post office!"
2.) Billy Graham's wife Ruth was once asked if at any time during their long married life together, she'd ever thought about divorce. She replied, "No, never divorce - homicide, maybe, but never divorce."
3.) After an exceptionally long and boring sermon the congregation filed out of the church not saying a word to the pastor. After a while a man shook the pastor's hand and said, "Pastor, that sermon reminded me of the peace and love of God!"
The pastor was ecstatic. "No-one has ever said anything like that about one of my sermons before! Tell me, how did it remind you of the peace and love of God?"
"Well", said the man, "it reminded me of the peace of God because it passed all human understanding and it reminded me of the love of God because it endured forever!"
