Vision 2020: Vision for Legacy

October 6, 2020


In 2013, Billy Graham felt called to deliver a final sermon, “My Hope.” In it, he wanted to deliver his final hopes and visions and again call the world to their hope in Christ. Our archives feature this month is a wooden cross with nails and a “crown of thorns” that was given to Billy Graham in November 2009 for his 91st birthday by Beverly Buckhorn of Brownsburg, Tennessee. The cross had been hanging in Billy Graham’s bedroom since he received it and was photographed during the filming of “My Hope.” A verse of scripture is taped to back “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me” Luke 9:23.
