A New Beginning presents a book about the greatest evangelist of the 20th century, Billy Graham,

written by his friend, Pastor Greg Lorry.

I bring insights that maybe other books have not really touched on.

I also weave in a lot of my personal experiences, one-on-one with Billy,

things he said to me, and things I gleaned by watching him.

So if you want to learn more about this man that changed the world,

get your copy of Billy Graham, the man I knew.

Yours for a gift of any amount at Harvest.org.

Hey, Greg Lurie here.

Welcome to my podcast.

I have a very special guest today, my wife, Catherine Beatrice Lori. There she is. Beatrice

spelled with a Z. With a Z. pronounced Biafiz in Spanish. Wow. There you go. And my name is pronounced

Greg. There's nothing special. My middle name. You're actually Gregory. Gregory Mitchell.

Mitchell. Lori. Your mom had a thing for movie stars. Yeah, I was, I think, named after Gregory Pat.

Not a bad. Not a bad guy. You know what my nickname was in life, though? Oh, yes, I do know.

What?

Pogo. Yes, and you know why? Because you

looked like the character in the cartoon strip. Is Pogo still on a... No, he's gone. No, he's

retired. He had a little card... He was a cartoon character, Pogo the Possum. And some aunt saw me and said,

he looks like Pogo the Possum. You do not. You didn't as a kid either.

Well, I don't even know where that came.

And I was called that for many years, and I never liked it.
