Reports on the news last night indicated that Franklin Graham had to convince his dad to agree to the building of the Billy Graham Library that was dedicated yesterday. I have a lot of respect for Billy Graham’s reservation and his continued care to turn the focus away from himself and toward God. The creation of this library/tourist attraction is a graphic reminder of a transition from movement to museum. There will not be a “next Billy Graham.” But there are (and will be) men and women who study the Bible, listen to God’s Spirit, and boldly communicate the ways God’s love and grace meet people’s modern needs.
