Following the passing on Wednesday, February 21, 2018 of renowned evangelist Billy Graham,
99, presumably a veritable cottage industry of books will arise
overnight attempting to place his unique legacy in perspective. In
assessing his lasting mark on the American consciousness, Graham was
best-known for his direct, accessible presentation of the Gospel, which
he preached to a collective audience of nearly 2l5 million people in
live audiences in 185 countries and territories on six continents.
And yet, what is likely less-known
was the astounding intuition of the late preacher in recognizing the
impact that various forms of media had on people and culture, both as a
method for communication and as a means to influence opinion and
perceptions – or more viscerally, to impact hearts and minds.
