I Love You But My Parents Say No


A friend of mine once called me from a long distance and we spoke for hours (and I mean that literally). We were on the phone for about two hours. Usually, when people call me from a long distance and for a long time like that, it’s usually about a relationship issue. 

Now, the issue here was this; he was in love with this lady and he wanted to marry her but his parents were against the whole idea so he was confused about what to do. I’m sure many of you can identify with this situation. If it hasn’t happened to you, it has happened or is happening to someone you know.

We see the gracious television guest, appearing with hosts from Johnny Carson and David Frost to Larry King and Barbara Walters—always responding with gentle wisdom, explaining the gospel, but humbly admitting his own limitations. We remember his leading the nation in dramatic times of grief, or helping inaugurate presidents, but more as national pastor than leader. Click Here To Download The Book
