Franklin Graham announced the creation of the Billy Graham Defense Fund on Saturday in Glasgow. The fund will help support religious freedom in the United Kingdom.
First on Fox: Christian evangelist Franklin Graham announced the creation of the Billy Graham Defense Fund on Saturday, June 22, while preaching on his 'God Loves You' tour in Glasgow, Scotland.
We took a stand for the Gospel and for freedom of religion in the U.K. Now we’re going to use these funds that came from this battle against cancel culture to help other Christians who may be threatened into silence,' said Franklin Graham. In 2020, he was dropped by every venue for his planned tour of the United Kingdom. The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association filed suit against the original tour venues, saying that the cancellations were due to religious discrimination.
Alex Gillies, pastor of Victory Christian Centre in Glasgow, along with his wife, Charlotte, said that Scotland is in desperate need of a message like the one Graham delivered. 'Our church is in a very deprived area. We see depression, mental health problems, financial issues – we see it all,' the couple told the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association after the event.
And it’s not just our church, it’s people all over Scotland. Nothing is going to help Scotland apart from Jesus,' they said. Events like these, they said, 'give pastors and churches like ours hope, because in the middle of all this chaos, people are seeking . This gives us a lot of hope.'
