SiriusXM has announced the launch of "The Billy Graham Channel," a limited-run channel headlined by Christian evangelist Billy Graham, founder of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association. The channel will debut on Monday, November 6 and run through Friday, November 17 on channel 145. Launching in celebration of the acclaimed preacher's 99th birthday, SiriusXM listeners will have access to the evangelist's inspiring messages from his seven decades of ministry.

"On November 7, Billy Graham celebrates his 99th birthday and we, along with SiriusXM, thought a channel featuring some of Mr. Graham's most memorable messages would be a fitting way to mark the occasion. 'The Billy Graham Channel' is the kind of gift Mr. Graham would greatly appreciate: it helps point others to the hope found in Jesus Christ," said Billy Graham Evangelistic Association Executive Director of Audio Media Jim Kirkland.

"Billy Graham has inspired millions of Americans with his uplifting messages of hope, courage, love and forgiveness," added SiriusXM VP/General Manager, Talk Programming Dave Gorab. "We are honored to be part of Billy Graham's 99th birthday celebration by bringing this limited engagement channel to SiriusXM listeners coast to coast."

In addition to the catalog of Graham's motivational messages and sermons, "The Billy Graham Channel" will also include personal reflections on the pastor's life by family and friends including Billy Graham's son, Franklin Graham, and his daughter, Anne Graham Lotz. The channel will also showcase remarks from Presidents Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and George W. Bush.

Born in 1918, evangelist Billy Graham has preached the Gospel to nearly 215 million people in more than 185 countries and territories. Since the 1949 Los Angeles Crusade that vaulted Graham into the public eye, he has led hundreds of thousands to make personal decisions to live for Christ, which is the main mission of his ministry.
