BILLY GRAHAM- I thought this quote was quite timely with our country and all of it's 'political correctness' that is slowly trying to push God out of our lives. I grew up watching many of Billy Grahams sermons with my dad and mom.
I liked what he had say in a straight forward way.
He has been a spiritual adviser to many of our Presidents.
His teachings of Christ correlate with my own beliefs.
Another quote, that relates to the above statement by Billy Graham, is
"You never check your religion at the door," Elder Holland said, "NOT EVER". That kind of discipleship Can Not Be. It is not discipleship at all." - See more at: http://universe.byu.edu/2012/09/09/elder-holland-dont-check-your-religion-at-the-door/#sthash.cM87q6Lb.dpuf
Another Minister that I really enjoy listening to, is JOYCE MEYER.
She speaks my language, has my sense of humor. I can relate to her struggles and victories. I like how she uses her personal examples of shortcomings and how she overcame them, through Christ.
SPENCER W. KIMBALL
President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day-Saints
I always enjoyed Spencer W. Kimball 's talk. He had such a kind and gentle spirit, yet was inspiring, and encouraging to many.
JOEL OSTEEN- I like 'smiling Joel'. He is positive and uplifting to listen to. He gives hope to many of us sinners and reminds us of what kind of life God has planned for us. He's a good guy.
PRESIDENT THOMAS S. MONSON.
CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS
I love to hear President Monson talk. He has a nice calming voice, and is truly interested in each one of us personally. I always enjoy how he interjects a little of his humor into his talks about the teachings of Christ.
JESUS CHRIST
our Savior and Lord.
I continue to study his word, but I fall short in keeping all of his commandments in so many ways. But I am reassured that there is hope for even the least of us.

I love every single one of those quotes.
I remember Dad listening to various televangelists. I'm not sure if i fully appreciated it at the time...but i am grateful he did. It was an example to me how he loved people of all faiths.
I still remember: one time i said, "why do you listen to these guys." and he responded with a smile something to the effect:
"Sometimes they get closer and closer to the truth."
another time he said:
I believe everything they do, and a little more.
As I grew older, I came to more appreciate these good people.
Billy Graham - great
I like Osteen- He's like a Mr Positive motivational speaker. He has a gift, that way.
The Holland quote you referred to came from one of my favorite talks of all time.
I'm not familiar with Meyers, other than you refer to her often- she sounds like someone I'd like, as well.
Pres. Kimball....my childhood prophet. Always holds a place in my heart.
Pres. Monson- is a sweetheart.
Our Savior....I marvel at his love and patience with and for us.
I like those quotes.
