Billy Graham has touched the hearts and souls of millions with his message of faith. Now, for the first time ever, Dr. Graham tells his life story in a momentous work of insight. Hailed as the world's preacher, his calling as an Evangelist has taken him to every nation, from Europe to Asia, from major capitals to the most remote outposts. His Crusades have spanned fifty years and he has been part of history in the making, and friend to every president since Eisenhower. A pioneer in social issues (he refused to preach to segregated audiences in the South), he has led by his extraordinary example of integrity.
In Just As I Am, Billy Graham looks back at it all with down-to-earth warmth and candor - remembering his dairy farm upbringing, his early preaching experiences, and the overwhelming international response to his public ministry based on his unshakable belief in Christ. This is an inspiring story of how a man of god grew into a man of great influence. Just As I Am is an unforgettable portrait that will be treasured by listeners everywhere.
From his beginnings on a North Carolina dairy farm through his steady growth as a public messenger of God's Word, Billy Graham's story is a moving testament to his influence on American Christianity and political life, and the spiritual well-being of the world. As he tells of the surprising number of obstacles he faced on his way to prominence, he is steadfast and humble rather than heroic. His recollections, sincere observations, and strong love of humanity make Graham's fundamentalist Christian beliefs seem inclusive rather than authoritarian. With obvious love for his longtime friend, the narrator uses Graham-like diction and pacing (both personal and magisterial) to make this audio a most enjoyable way to understand this American icon.

Longtime Graham associate Cliff Barrows (who is the announcer for Graham's radio program) reads the evangelist's autobiography. Those familiar with Graham's style of communication will recognize that he writes very much as he speaks. Barrow reads clearly and with enthusiasm. However, this performance has more the sound of being announced rather than being read. M.T.F. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
