May 2003: "Explaining the Hope Within You":
Testimonies at Billy Graham Evangelistic Meetings

from Collection 1, box 1, folder 23
Handbill used during the 1954 Greater London Crusade.

Television cowboy stars Roy Rogers and Dale Evans were among the first of the entertainment, sports, and political figures who have given their personal Christian testimonies at Billy Graham evangelistic meetings. For more that fifty years these celebrities have helped to bring to the meetings many who would not otherwise attend a religious service. In their testimonies they have shared how they met the Lord and what He is doing for them. These testimonies encourage those who know the Lord to live close to Him, and to those who don't to trust Him as Savior and Lord. These testimonies, on audio and video tapes and films, are found in several collections in the Archives. Many of the testimonies are found on the videos of crusade services in Collection 54 and Collection 113 Others are on the audio tapes of services in Collection 26 or you can try to find the testimony of a particular person by searching his or her name at http://www2.wheaton.edu/bgc/archives/Search/.
