Republican vice presidential candidate Sen. J.D. Vance, R-Ohina, shared how the Gospel influenced his life during his visit to the Billy Graham Library in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Monday to pay his respects at the graves of the late evangelist and his wife.
Billy Graham's son, evangelist Franklin Graham, spoke about Vance's visit while he was on his way to Alaska in a post on X. During his visit, Vance was accompanied by Franklin Graham's children, daughter Cissie Graham Lynch and son Roy Graham, along with Billy Graham's longtime assistant David Bruce, who also serves as executive vice president of the Billy Graham Library.
"We were pleased that Senator [Vance] and his wife Usha could visit [the library] while they were in Charlotte today," Graham tweeted. "He has said that he watched my father preaching the Gospel on television growing up."
In a separate post on X, Graham shared brief remarks Vance made about what he believes the message of Billy Graham Library is and how he was personally impacted by the Gospel.
"Billy Graham believed the Gospel belonged to everybody: to rich and poor, to black and white, and that was something that really meant a lot to my grandmother," Vance said.
