„The coming of Christ was foretold centuries before the Messiah came, by type, by symbol, and by prophecy. The smoke from every Jewish altar was an index finger pointing to the Lamb of God who would take away the sins of the world. One thousand years rolled by and still no Messiah. Two thousand years and still no Christ … Three thousand … Five thousand…” (StanleyHigh:Billy Graham The Personal Story Of The Man His Message And His Mission.New York:McGraw-Hill Book Company,1956,s.73.
„The invitation was a little more difficult last night” – pisze do swojej żony, Ruth – „and fewer people came. The moment I walked down from the platform the Holy Spirit said to me, »You did not preach Christ and the Cross as you should.«I looked back over my sermon and I remember that I had exalted Christ a little less, perhaps, and it was one of the few occasions that I did not touch on His death, burial, and resurrection as the heart of the message. The Lord taught me a lesson.” StanleyHigh:Billy Graham The Personal Story Of The Man His Message And His Mission.New York:McGraw-Hill Book Company,1956,s.60.
Wiosną 1955 roku gdy głosił w Narodowym Prezbiteriańskim Kościele w Waszyngtonie, przybył prezydent z małżonką, wielu członków rządu, kongresmenów i senatorów. „Strange to say, all nervousness and fear had left me. I felt perfectly calm and confident. I felt the Spirit of God in my heart and I knew He had given me a message for that hour. During the entire service I did not see the President once, though I knew where he was sitting. In fact, I forgot all about the fact that he was in the audience. I preached the Gospel as straight and as clearly as I have ever preached it. I felt that there was power and authority in the message. As soon as I was through, I gave thanks to God for the power He had given” (StanleyHigh:Billy Graham The Personal Story Of The Man His Message And His Mission.New York:McGraw-Hill Book Company,1956,s.29.).

William Martin, biograf Grahama, twierdzi, że Hearst jeszcze w 1946 roku dał polecenie „puff YFC” (Youth for Christ), a Graham należał do YFC. (John Dart, Billy Graham Recalls Help From Hearst, Los Angeles Times, June 07, 1997.).
Wiele jego krucjat przeprowadzonych zostało we współpracy z Kościołem katolickim. Podczas krucjaty w Milwaukee (1978), abp Rembert Weakland wysłał list do kapłanów swojej diecezji z instrukcją, by udzielili Grahamowi wsparcia. Krucjata w Polsce (1978) była finansowana m.in. przez Kościół katolicki, a kapłani katoliccy dzielili z nim mównicę. Głosił w kościele św. Anny w Krakowie.
