Ruth Bell Graham: Her Legacy in Writing

“Her life is ruled by the Bible more than any person I’ve ever known.” Billy Graham on his wife, Ruth Bell Graham

Ruth Bell Graham’s legacy lives on in her husband, Reverend Billy Graham, and her children and grandchildren. But she also left behind a legacy in words. She authored and co-authored many books, as well as having many written about her by other authors. Her death on June 14, 2007, reverberates throughout the world from her birthplace in China to her home in North Carolina. This remarkable woman had the ability to touch the lives of millions through her intelligence, love, laughter, and understanding. I have compiled this list of books both by her and about her in the hopes that you will read at least one of them and learn from the examples of a woman who loved and lived for Christ each day of her life.

Books by Ruth Bell Graham:

Ruth Bell Graham Collected Poems
Footprints of a Pilgrim
One Wintry Night
Prayers from a Mother’s Heart
Prodigals and Those Who Love Them
Legacy of a Pack Rat
Never Let It End: Poems of a Lifelong Love
It’s My Turn
A Quiet Knowing Christmas
Sitting By My Laughing Fire
Blessings For A Mother’s Day
Clouds Are the Dust of His Feet

Coauthored Books:

This Christmas Night: Reflections from Our Hearts to Your Home (Billy Graham and Ruth Bell Graham)

I Still Miss Someone: Friends and Family Remember Johnny Cash (Reverend Billy Graham & Ruth Bell Graham, Hugh Waddell)

A Quiet Knowing (Ruth Bell Graham and Gigi Graham)
Coffee and Conversation with Ruth Bell Graham and Gigi Graham Tchividjian (by same)

Mother’s Together (Ruth Bell Graham and Gigi Graham Tchividjian)
The Making of a Marriage/Everything You Need to Know to Keep Your Relationship Alive (Ruth Bell Graham, Charles Stanley, Ron Blue, and Linda Dillow)

Books About Ruth Bell Graham:

Just As I Am: The Autobiography of Billy Graham (Billy Graham)
Ruth, A Portrait: The Story of Ruth Bell Graham (Patricia Cornwell)
Ruth Bell Graham: Celebrating an Extraordinary Life (Stephen Griffith)
Marriage Made In Heaven: Billy and Ruth Graham (Jhan Robbins)
Ruth Bell Graham: A Pilgrim Journey (Audiobook by Walter Cronkite)
Footprints of a Pilgrim: A Dramatic Presentation of the Life of Ruth Bell Graham (Lamb’s Players)

This list is in no way meant to be exhaustive. For this proud, beautiful, and wise gentlewoman, sharing her passion for life and life’s lessons was almost as deeply ingrained as her love for God and her family. The death of Ruth Bell Graham has left us grieving, but her own words will bring us comfort and peace.

About Life as a Christian Woman

Life as a Christian Woman explores Biblical truths as they apply to modern faith and the vital roles we can play in the body of Christ. Some topics are easy, such as Christ died for our sins. Others, like divorce, single parenthood, work, and submission to our spouses are more challenging. Then there are days we just need a good laugh with God. Together, we can learn practical faith in an impractical world.
