Franklin Graham Reveals His Father's Life Verse That He 'Pinned Up' Around His Home

Franklin Graham gave the world a glimpse into his father's personal walk with God by revealing the one verse he's held on to his whole life. 

"Still today, my father Billy Graham has a Bible verse pinned up on the wall in his bedroom, printed in VERY large letters. In fact, it's in the dining room, his bathroom, and several other spots around the house!" Graham began in a Facebook post. "Galatians 6:14CloseGalatians 6:14 As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross,* my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world's interest in me has also died. OPEN VERSE IN BIBLE (nlt) says, 'But God forbid that I should boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.'"

"It was his passion to memorize it, to saturate his heart and mind with it. He made it his life verse," Graham added.

"Back before his 95th birthday, he was working on a sermon based on this key Scripture," Graham said. 

However, Galatians 6:14CloseGalatians 6:14 As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross,* my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world's interest in me has also died.
