Billy Graham Crusade...
I forgot to mention that Billy Graham is in town this weekend (that’s a picture of the Kansas City skyline on his front page!). Graham is on his “Renewing the Heart of America” tour (which, I think, is to be his last tour of the States). This weekend is a long time in coming. The Crusade, at Arrowhead Stadium (and here), was supposed to occur last June, but due to a series of events, it didn’t happen.
I don’t know if we’re going to attend, even though it shouldn’t be too dificult: it’s free and there’s sure to be seating (there are a number of other festivals occurring this weekend, as well as two NASCAR races, the 25th Annual American Royal Barbecue Rodeos and Horse Shows are going on, and…it’s raining — Arrowhead Stadium is an outdoor stadium). The advertising hasn’t been that great for the Crusade either. They had begun to advertise during the Spring, but the long delay has surely tapped their budget. There are a few billboards around and some signs on the sides of busses. They also made this really creepy sort of television commercial that I don’t think will make anyone want to go.
Something tells me that not many “unsaved” go to see Billy Graham anymore. I just pray that God will use this crusade to reach a few people here in KC who don’t know him yet.
