The Rev. Billy Graham on Appreciating Life

Aired on 06/03/1997 | CC
Editor's note: We were deeply saddened to learn of the Rev. Billy Graham's passing. This is a moment from his interview on The Oprah Winfrey Show in June 1997.

During a 1997 episode of The Oprah Show, Oprah asked the Rev. Billy Graham what surprised him most about life. He responded without hesitation: "Brevity of life." The Rev. Graham, one of the world's most influential evangelists, went on to explain that life can pass by in a flash, which is all the more reason to appreciate and embrace each moment.
