God does not
change — and neither does His love. He loved you before you were born...
He loves you now... and He will love you forever. - Billy Graham

Easter will soon be here! At FaithGateway we’re beginning
this joyous season with a new series of devotionals for the next 40 days.
Starting today, we’re bringing you devotions that will help you set aside
time for reflection on Jesus Christ - His life, ministry, death, suffering,
sacrifice, burial and resurrection. The devotions will culminate in Passion
Week and Easter Sunday. We pray that these devotions will help you focus
your heart on Jesus during this Easter season, and will give you
opportunities to share your faith with family and friends. We’d love for
you to invite others to sign
up here;
when they do, they’ll receive the free eBook download, Blessings of the
Cross by Billy Graham, Anne Graham Lotz, Max Lucado, Stormie Omartian,
and more. (Go get your complimentary
copy
too.) Thank you for being such faithful readers!

O LORD my God, You are very great; ...You who laid the
foundations of the earth. - Psalm 104:1 , Psalm
104:5
God’s love did not begin at Calvary. Before the morning
stars sang together, before the world was baptized with the first light,
before the first blades of tender grass peeped out, God was love.
Turn back to the unwritten pages of countless eons before
God spoke this present earth into existence, when the earth was “without
form and void” and the deep, silent darkness of space stood in stark
contrast to the brilliance of God’s glory and His cherubim and seraphim.
Even then, God was love. Before the worlds were created, He
knew all about us and the need we would have some day for Christ to die for
us. So in His love He chose us in Him before the creation of the world.
- Ephesians 1:4
God does not change — and neither does His love. He loved
you before you were born... He loves you now... and He will love you
forever. Will you love Him in return?

If there were such a job as the nation's pastor it would go
to Billy Graham.
Graham wasn’t born with a mandate to become the face of
modern evangelism. Growing up, he wasn’t much different from other boys in
his town. Billy was more interested in going to the movies than the moving
of the Holy Spirit, and he spent more time chasing girls than God. But at a
revival meeting the day before his sixteenth birthday, Graham committed
himself to Christ and never looked back. That day, he started on the path
that would make him the most influential Christian leader in American
history.
In Billy Graham: His Life and Influence, acclaimed
author David Aikman probes critical episodes of Graham’s life that help
explain his profound impact, both on the public life of America and other
nations and the private lives of their cultural and political leaders. From
the racial upheaval of the civil rights movement to the social turmoil of
the cold war, Aikman traces Graham’s profound influence on a nation as it
went through wrenching changes over the span of more than a half century.
Through vivid anecdotes and fascinating details, Billy Graham: His Life
and Influence tells the story of how a country boy from Charlotte with
a heart for God grew up to help shape the world.
