Millions of People Will Now See These Important Bible Verses Thanks to a New Billy Graham Statue in the U.S. Capitol
Billy Graham, the famed evangelist whose crusades reached hundreds of millions of people, was officially honored at the U.S. Capitol on Thursday.
A 7-foot statute of Graham’s likeness was unveiled inside the National Statuary Hall during a ceremony that was attended by Graham’s family, Speaker Mike Johnson (R), North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D), former Vice President Mike Pence, and other North Carolina lawmakers.
“Today North Carolina gives the nation a symbol representing one of our dearest treasures: the Reverend Billy Graham, a man of faith, a man of North Carolina,” Cooper said at the ceremony.
The statue depicts Graham holding an open Bible with his left hand, and his right hands points to the text. The Bible is opened to Galatians 6:14, which reads, “May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.” (Read more from “Millions of People Will Now See These Important Bible Verses Thanks to a New Billy Graham Statue in the U.S. Capitol” HERE)
