Evangelist Franklin Graham preached to thousands at Seoul World Cup Stadium on Saturday, 50 years after his father’s historic Billy Graham Korea outreach in South Korea.
The late Billy Graham gathered about 3 million people to share the gospel. While his son preached in a stadium that was filled with 70,000 souls that came to seek God and hear about the love of Jesus Christ.
“Korea has changed so much in 50 years. The world has changed, but God’s love for you has not changed,” Evangelist Franklin Graham told the crowd of about 70,000 people at Seoul World Cup Stadium.
“God made you, He created you, and He loves you. He sent His Son Jesus Christ to save you from your sins,” he continued. “If you’re willing to accept that by faith, believe in His name, and turn from your sins, your soul will be safe and secure in His hands for eternity.”
“The last time my father saw Dr. Billy Kim, he told him, ‘Let’s have one more crusade in Korea,’” Graham told the crowd on Saturday.

“I love the people of Korea. This is a strong and beautiful country, and the people are so sincere and generous,” the evangelist continued. “They have always made me feel right at home, and I am looking forward to being with the people of this nation. I’m coming to Seoul at a time that has been difficult for many people. The pandemic was very challenging. People need to know there is hope. So many are anxious about the future and don’t know where to turn. I want them to know that God has a plan and a purpose for our lives.”
“There’s no nation in the world quite like Korea, but all the money and all the technology doesn’t fill the vacuum in the human heart. People want to know, ‘Who am I? Why am I here? What’s the purpose and the meaning for my life?’ People are searching, and they don’t even know what they’re searching for, but something is missing,” Graham asserted. “Only God can fill that vacuum. I’ve come to preach a simple message of God’s love for the Korean people, and I want everyone to know how they can have a personal relationship with God through faith in His Son Jesus Christ.”
According to the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, thousands of people made professions of faith following Franklin Graham’s message.
