| Summary | Much of the considerable interest in this show derives from hearing the famous
preacher engaging in ordinary conversation. Dr. Graham agrees with his host that the
organized churches are in decline, but he insists that in his travels throughout the country he has found no "real revolt against the Person of Christ." BG: "I think the Church is
going to undergo restructuring. I suspect that the movement that is under way now is to
have small meetings in homes. You know, the early Church, for the first three centuries,
met in homes. I suspect the movement is in this direction now. In coming to New York
two years ago we found more than a thousand of these groups already meeting. Since
then four thousand more groups have emerged." |
