CHRISTIAN EVANGELIST BILLY GRAHAM | The story of the 1954 Greater London Crusade at Harringay Arena

Billy Graham, the renowned Christian evangelist, dedicated his life to spreading the Gospel worldwide, reaching millions with his powerful sermons on salvation through Jesus Christ. One of his most impactful events was the 1954 Greater London Crusade held at the Harringay Arena, Wembley Stadium and Trafalgar Square where he preached to over 1.75 million people in Post-WW2 Britain during a three-month period. This historic crusade marked a turning point for evangelicalism in the UK, drawing thousands to faith in Christ and solidifying Graham's influence on global Christian outreach. His message of salvation, repentance, and faith in Jesus Christ continues to inspire Christians today.

✍️ ABOUT STEVE LEE
I've been a storyteller all my life with a deep love of history. As a dreamer in Sunday School, I was mesmerised by the stories of the Bible - David and Goliath, the Battle of Jericho and the parting of the Red Sea. But through my teenage years, I struggled to get the whole religious thing and left it well alone. It took me some time to realise I needed to go back and pick up what I left behind. At 20 I encountered the God of the Bible stories I had learned about as a kid and it changed my life forever. I founded Miracle Street as a result and it has taken me all over the world on countless adventures. Today I communicate in all kinds of environments - indoors, outdoors and online, often retelling the stories of famous lives and epic moments from the past. Behind it all is a backcloth of the greatest story ever told - the story of a creator God who has relentlessly loved this world and the people in it.
