Legendary American preacher, Evangelist Billy Graham, breathed his last on Wednesday at 99 with many lessons from his eventful life and ministry.

He was a preacher I admired so much since I read his autobiography, Just as I am, several years ago. His commitment to the gospel has challenged me just as his life of integrity.

As I pondered on his remarkable life, it occurred to me there are lessons preachers in Nigeria can glean from his life and ministry.

Here are seven of them I find worth considering for ministers hoping to finish as strong as he did:

He stayed true to main call and passion: Billy Graham started ministry in 1939 at age 21. He knew his main calling. It was evangelism. And that what he stuck to. He avoided every other areas of ministry to stay on his main call.
Everything he did was evangelism-related. His Billy Graham crusades reached out to an estimated 210 million in 185 countries of the world throughout his over 70 years of public ministry. He could do that much because there were no distractions.
