Evangelist Billy Graham remembered his close associate Dr. Sterling Huston, who died of cancer last week, as "indispensable" to his ministry, and recalled his confidence in the life-changing power of the Gospel.

"Sterling was one of my closest associates and his vision, his unique gifts and his strong commitment to evangelism were indispensable to my Crusade ministry," Billy Graham said of former director of North American Crusades for the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association who died after a courageous battle with cancer on June 29 in Rochester, N.Y.

Members of the notorious Westboro Baptist Church continued on Tuesday their two-day protest of one of the world's most influential evangelical leaders – Billy Graham.

The Topeka, Kansas-based group said it was picketing a "false prophet" and further accused Graham, who has retired, of preaching for money and influence.

"When they began preaching in the 1940's, Billy Graham & WBC pastor Fred Phelps taught the same doctrine. Yes! But as soon as it became unprofitable to preach God's standards (Repent! Obey or perish!

A military marriage is difficult to begin with, but having a spouse come home wounded from active duty adds incomprehensible strain. Operation Heal Our Patriots, a ministry of the Franklin-Graham-led Samaritan's Purse, will be the first program in the country to offer support for couples in such marriages.

The marriage enrichment program, featuring weeklong retreats to a remote, refurbished fishing camp in Alaska, begins next month with its first set of ten couples, each having a spouse with battle injuries – either visible or invisible.

"It's important that we are doing this now when the nation starts to focus on the winding down of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. These injuries that people are left with, whether they are visible injuries or the invisible injuries such as the PTSD or post-traumatic brain injury, these are going to continue for a long time," retired Marines Brigadier General Jim Walker told The Christian Post. more >>
