Graham and his love Cunningham tied the knot in the year in 1974 in North Carolina. Their wedding was the intimate yet lavishing ceremony which held in the presence of their closed ones and family members.

Jane used to stay at home taking care of all the family members when Gram traveled the world during his busy schedule.

Graham explained,

"It’s the only home my wife and I have ever owned. We were just kids when we first came up here to Boone."

"I’ve lived all my life in Western North Carolina, and I can go anywhere in the world. But there’s something special when you land in Charlotte, and you see the mountains to the west."

The couple has happily spent 44 long years without rumors of separation or disputes. We wish to see them the same until the end.

He joined Bob Pierce, the founder of Samaritan's Purse working on world relief. After the death of Pierce, he became the president of Samaritan's Purse working on several projects including 'Operation Christmas Child' and the 'Children's Heart Project' in more than 100 countries.

As of 2014, he was the highest paid employee at Samaritan's Purse receiving $622,252 annually.

He came into the controversy when he stated that the former President Barack Obama is a Muslim by birth. He said,

"I think the president's problem is that he was born a Muslim; his father was a Muslim. The seed of Islam is passed through the father like the seed of Judaism is passed through the mother. He was born a Muslim, his father gave him an Islamic name."

He further explained,

"Now it's obvious that the president has renounced the prophet Mohammed, and he has renounced Islam, and he has accepted Jesus Christ. That's what he says he has done. I cannot say that he hasn't. So I just have to believe that the president is what he has said."

Later, Graham apologized to Obama for his comments. He said,

"I regret any comments I have ever made which may have cast any doubt on the personal faith of our president, Mr. Obama. The president has said he is a Christian and I accept that."

Besides a political activist, he's also active as an author. Some of his creations include The Shower, A Wing and a Prayer, All for Jesus, The Name, and Living Beyond the Limits: A Life in Sync with God.
