I am so excited about this book. It is amazing. We are giving it out to the moms at our church on Mother's Day. I read it and several others who have read it simply love it. Thanks for making it available. Ruth Bell Graham was an incredible woman. So encouraging to get a look at more of her life.

This book shows insight into the life of Ruth Graham, the wife, Christian, and supporter, of her husband, Billy Graham. She was a strong woman of faith. I encourage everyone, especially wives to read this book. She was an inspiration and faithful follower of Christ.

I knew nothing about RBG before reading this book. She was quite a lady. This was an easy, entertaining, inspiring read.

This was a delightful book of interesting chapters of Ruth Bell Graham's life. I felt I knew her intimately after reading - had bought two - so shared with a friend.
A wonderful gift.

Chapters written by her daughters, relatives, friends, and acquaintances of Ruth Bell Graham give the reader rich insight into what contributed to her strong Christian faith as she raised a family and supported her husband, Billy Graham, in his ministry.

A really good book capturing the life of Ruth Bell Graham through snapshots. It was neat to read about her life through vignettes from herself, family, friends and professionals. By the end, I felt as if I met her personally. A fun read.

I am reading this book now and it is wonderful book about the strong woman who stood by the amazing man Billy Graham.
Most people believe Billy Graham would not have been able to do and be who he was without the encouragement and faith of his loving wife. It is a very interesting book and I have a hard time putting it down. I would recommend this book to anyone.

This is a great read. Have already passed it on to a friend to read. Had admired Mrs. Graham for years and this book made her come to life.
