Persistent preacher: Billy Graham turns 71 Tuesday but don’t bring up the topic of retirement. “I do not intend to retire,” the evangelist said. “Nowhere do I find in the Bible that a preacher retired. My doctors have suggeted that I slow down somewhat. But as long as God gives me breath, I expect to preach the Gospel.” Graham had four major crusades in 1989 and his schedule for next year includes stops in Albany and Long Island, New York, Montreal, Canada and Hong Kong.
