Did Billy Graham Films Make a Difference in Your Life?
- Request for Input -
"Our son Peter Chattaway, an award-winning Christian journalist and film
critic, is currently doing research for an article on the history of World
Wide Pictures, the motion-picture division of the ministry of evangelist Billy
Graham. Over 50 movies by World Wide Pictures are listed at the end of this
message, and you can even view some of them online.
If your life was affected by a Billy Graham film, or you have a favourite
Billy Graham film, please contact Peter as soon as possible at filmchat@gmail.com
(click here to send him mail: filmchat@gmail.com.
Peter is collecting testimonies and compiling a "top 5" list of
the most significant films ever made by World Wide Pictures.
I think it would be especially helpful to Peter to hear
from people who saw the early films when they were new. What was it like to
see a Billy Graham film back then? Where was it shown (church or theatre)?
Who went to see it (youth, families, unchurched guests, the public)? What
impact did it make? Did someone speak 'live' after the film?
Please forward this message to your family members and friends who may have
seen one of these films and might have something to say about it!
Thank you, A&K Chattaway
