FRANKFORT, Ky. – Calling on Christians to get God back in government, Franklin Graham, son of evangelist Billy Graham and successor to his international ministry, held a rally on the steps of the state Capitol Wednesday, urging the faithful to elect more people of God to public office.
"We need Christian men and women at every level," Graham thundered to a crowd his organizers estimated at 5,800. "We're losing our country."
Graham said his father, 97, retired from active ministry, "sends his greetings," drawing cheers from his audience.
Among Kentucky officials who attended were Gov. Matt Bevin and Lt. Gov. Jenean Hampton, whom Graham said he met just before his noon rally.
