Thomas Nelson Publishing will publish at the end of September 2015 the most recent Billy Graham book on Christian faith = WHERE_I_AM: Heaven, Eternity, and our Life Beyond.
Now in his 97th year, preacher and evangelist Graham invites readers to follow the "Gospel Plan of Salvation" (a different sort of direction-providing GPS) to the "ultimate destination... Heavenfound in Jesus Christ." Chapter titles such as "Power Forever: Choose or Lose (Joshua)" and "Praise Eternal: Suffering or Singing (Romans)" support Graham's assertion that there "are only two kinds of people: the saved and the unsaved." Urging readers to decide now where they want to spend eternity, he begs, "Please do not close this book until you open your heart to Him." Graham fears for Christians who focus on social justice issues rather than their personal salvation: "Don't think that just because you feed people and give money to the needy, you will earn eternal life." In chapters that read like sermons, Graham evokes biblical authority with his trademark "the Bible says," interspersing stories from scripture alongside reminiscences from his lengthy global ministries, working with such notable Christians as Chiang Kai-Shek and Pat Nixon. In the moving final chapter of what may be his last book, Graham's reflections on "when the Lord calls me home" proclaim his steadfast faith in the gospel message he has preached.
