Customer Reviews
Billy Graham
This book is as sitting with Billy Graham and hearing him talk about being old. Now that I am in my eighth decade, I can appreciate what he says in a way I could not have when I was younger. I guess the surprise is that a man of his closeness to God would face similar thoughts as the rest of us as we age. Although he is unsure how to live his last few years as an old man, that does not stop him from sharing his very optimistic and joyful view of what awaits for him in heaven. It is a good book, and I recommended it highly.
