Billy Graham Disses Evangelical Writers


It's hard to believe, but it's in writing...and published, oddly enough, on the back cover of a book by an evangelical writer.

In an unprecedented move, FaithWords, the publisher of the Philip Yancey book, What Good Is God?, has included a quote from Billy Graham on the back cover that would appear to degrade not only Yancey's book, but everything ever written in modern times by anyone other than Billy Graham himself.




Inexplicably under the heading "Praise for Philip Yancey", world-renowned evangelist Billy Graham is quoted as saying, "There is no writer in the evangelical world that I admire and appreciate."


Expect the shockwaves of reaction to hit our shores any minute now.


Wait...there's a sales sticker covering the last part of the quote. Let me take it off.

"There is no writer in the evangelical world that I admire and appreciate more."


Oh.


Never mind...
