Editorial Reviews

The veteran preacher and daughter of Billy Graham has a richly deserved reputation as a charismatic interpreter of God's word. In this tenacious audio, she recounts a series of tragedies with compassion and worldly authority, all the while referring to her Bible like someone who knows the truths in her heart, rather than just on the sacred pages. Her reading is clear and compelling, though slightly confined by the recording studio, in contrast to how one imagines she would sound in front of a crowd. Moving us beyond the question of why God allows suffering, she takes listeners to a higher realm where she lifts up the defeated and inspires a sense of community in those who feel abandoned.
