Monday, March 21st, 2005Last month was Square One. Today was Day One. Last Thursday, the Greater New York Billy Graham Crusade offered me a three-month retainer to direct the Get Real youth campaign as part of the June crusade. (More on Get Real in a future post.)

Wednesday, March 2nd, 2005So my original report from Square One promised a follow-up post with next step instructions. Here goes. 1. Grow the army. To the extent we’re serious about giving 5 million young people in the Greater New York area a credible opportunity to attend Billy Graham’s “Get Real” Crusade, 787 youth leaders is a nice start [...]

Why I Support the Billy Graham Crusade (and Pray You Do Too)

Why should you care, beyond perhaps the historical curiosity of the 86-year old, so-called “Protestant Pope†retiring? My friend, for one, doesn’t. He’s a respected youth pastor [...]
Billy Graham wants you
Tuesday, February 8th, 2005Friends and youth ministry colleagues: Get real for a second. Your youth are dying. Your neighborhood youth are dying even faster. Your church wants you to reach them. Your God called you to reach them. But you need help. So do I. This June a historic opportunity to reach your kids and mine, our city [...]

Friday, February 4th, 2005Presumably in light of Time magazine’s recent list, Christianity Today is conducting an online poll of “the most influential evangelical.” No surprises here: Chuck Colson: 3% James Dobson: 17% Billy Graham: 53% Ted Haggard: 0% Bill Hybels: 1% Bishop T.D. Jakes: 6% Tim LaHaye: 2% Richard Land: 0% J.I. Packer: 3% Rick Warren: 10% John [...]
