William Franklin Graham Jr. (November 7, 1918 – February 21, 2018) was an influential American evangelist, known as “America’s pastor” and one of the most prominent figures in 20th century evangelical Christianity. Throughout his career, he preached the Gospel live to over 215 million people in more than 185 countries and territories, in addition to reaching hundreds of millions more through television, radio, and other media.

He was born on a farm near Charlotte, North Carolina. His conversion to Christianity occurred at age 16, in 1934, during a series of evangelistic meetings in Charlotte. He studied at the Florida Bible Institute and at Wheaton College, where he graduated in 1943. In 1943, he married Ruth Bell, with whom he had five children.

In 1950, he founded the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association (BGEA), which organized massive evangelistic crusades and radio programs like Hour of Decision. His ministry pioneered the use of media to spread the Christian message. Additionally, he served as a spiritual advisor to several U.S. presidents, from Harry Truman to Barack Obama.

Graham died in 2018 at the age of 99 at his home in North Carolina. He was recognized for his integrity and dedication to Christian service. His legacy continues through the BGEA and his influence on global evangelization.
