He was a conservative Christian, no doubt about it - but he certainly seemed to be a well-meaning person. He was not mean-spirited and judgmental like many of the mega-preachers like Falwell and Swaggart and Bakker and Robertson and even Graham's own son, Franklin.

For the most part, he seemed like a voice of kindness and compassion, and a strong opponent of segregation. I think he led a lot of conservative Christians away from the evils of the mega-preachers.
