Description
Billy Graham: American Pilgrim offers a groundbreaking exploration of the life and legacy of one of the most influential Christian leaders of the twentieth century. Through the contributions of distinguished scholars, this book delves into Graham's evolution and complexity, revealing a figure who stayed true to evangelical precepts yet journeyed to positions in religion, politics, and culture that stretched his tradition to its limits. Graham's growth occurred on an international stage, influencing the world around him in ways large and small. This book takes a fresh and nuanced look at the complex life of one of the most important figures of the last century, exploring the many ways in which he shaped American Christianity, global Christianity, church and state, the Cold War, race relations, and intellectual life. By examining Graham's role in these phenomena, this book provides a unique window into the history and character of our present and recent past.
