George Beverly Shea was a great gift from God in my life. I am 57 years old and had the good fortune to hear him as a teen when he performed at Moody Bible Institute. As a young Christian at the time, God worked through Bev to make an impact on my life. A few years later, I had an opportunity to receive my grandfather’s collection of Bev’s albums from the 50’s, 60’s, and 70’s. These albums are one of my most cherished possessions even today. Thank you Bev for the Godly life you lived and for the people you touched through your singing for the good of the kingdom of God! I hope to meet you down the road in heaven.
