This is my favorite scene from the Crown because I am a Christian and I love how he is so gentle and kind and humble in talking with her about Jesus...and this allows her to feel safe enough to open up and share her thoughts and beliefs with him. Just a truly beautiful scene 😊
@@honinakecheta601 Graham was a powerful orator. But for those of you who believe in his virtue, you may want to look up on TH-cam his conversation with Richard Nixon on black people… which not only has has left much… to be desired, but is disgraceful as it is revealing.

Natural reaction to anyone who hasn’t fully accepted Christ. Satan has a veil over your mind that blinds you to things of Heaven and focuses you on things of the world. Now I’m not sure how Phillip felt in real life, but this is a great illustration of how peaceful Christ can make you when you live for Him vs how uncomfortable you feel when you haven’t accepted Him.
if Jesus were in her place he would have disbanded the monarchy and used its funds to help the poor and downtrodden, as he did in his time. nothing christian about being a queen
Queen Elizabeth herself was a believer, and when you’re seemingly the only one in your family who is truly trying to live as a follower of Jesus, of course you’re going to be captivated by someone who also is committed to the faith as you. Not to mention we are talking about Billy Graham here, who was the spiritual advisor/mentor to every US President from Eisenhower to Trump, great friends with Queen Elizabeth, preached behind the iron curtain, and impacted countless people for the sake of the Gospel. To this day, out of so many famous preachers, we have yet to find dirt on the man. He simply desired to do God’s will. Was he perfect, not by a long shot, but he nonetheless followed the One who was. That’s America’s pastor for you!
One of today's rare mainstream TV series that can say Christian, who a Christian is or what a Christian should do, a few times. Love that about the Crown.
Something very powerful struck me. It's got the word 'despite' in it. As good a job as Claire does with the accent, it's not perfect and when it doesn't sound right to anyone who has a keen ear for accents and grew up when at least some people (other than the royals) spoke with the accent she is trying to use (check out Celia Johnson in Brief Encounter) it's quite jarring and risks 'breaking the spell'. But here's the 'despite': Claire Foy's performance is so perfect that the 'risk' never turns into anything at all. And I forgot to put despite in there. Accent imperfections can typically totally wreck what would otherwise have been flawless productions. I even hesitate to put this into that category, because I'm not sure that many would know or care. She could have been much less accurate and something else would have still given her the edge. She spends long moments saying nothing. The fact that these are some of the most moving moments, when the camera lens is right up against her face, and the totally convincing acting still cuts right through the silence, makes a mockery of me even raising the accent issue.
Maybe she did have a crush on him. But then again I noticed that Graham wanted to meet every U.S. President and he did. I think he wanted attention just like some of these rock stars. Probably Graham wanted to meet Queen Elizabeth at that time too and she often asked for his advice in regards to spiritual matters. Most of us are searching. I guess we'll never know, but we can only go by our instincts.
I understand there are very good kind loving ppl that adhere to Christian beliefs, but I’ve seen and Wittnessed the darker side of this monotheism, so it’s hard sometimes to reconcile this .ditto for all religions
Yes I have too...some in my own family...I think it comes down to what is truly in their heart. Someone who truly follows Jesus will be consistently and deeply loving and kind to ALL people.
Billy Graham was the evangeliser of the last century. That despite the criticism of even a Christopher Hitchens. As one commentator once wrote "rational people should have a hard time accepting Hitchens' characterization of Graham as a disgustingly evil man."
Oh and if anyone watching this would want to know how to become a christian....just read John 3:16 and Romans 10: 9-10...Jesus and Paul sum it up beautifully 😊
Funny how what is a Christian was never really answered to say one except Christ is just an admission that one believes in god. But said nothing to what is a Christian The show great I just got a problem to that question
I think it was friend...he says a Christian is a person who "has a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ." And a person gets that personal relationship when they "have received Christ as savior"
BG was being very kind and gentled indeed. ER wouldn’t make it through Five Minutes at one of his Tent Revivals. She would be clutching her pearls and gasping for air before her limo found a parking space!🙄😂
Elizabeth was NEVER a simple anything when her entire family was put on some pedestal. And how you get "Christian" for any adherent to the church founded by Henry VIII is beyond me.
And that after he wouldn’t follow the teachings of the original Church. So he made up his own, so that he could divorce, and/or behead any wife he wanted to; whenever and for whatever reason he wanted to. Nice gig.😮

Rev Graham probably moved the hearts of the most hardened leaders of his day. He was the greatest.♥️🙌🏻
Probably?? He was “World Renowned” for a reason! (And it wasn’t for being all cupcakes and lollipops about Salvation, either.)😂

I loved Phillip's reaction: "I can't believe this conman!"

Last man standing it’s a great show from blue pictures television.
Is it me or does she seem to have a bit of a crush on Billy Graham?
This was her revenge on Prince Philip 😂

He is her type.
Clair Foy is a great actress.
When the real Billy Graham passed away, QEII sent out her public condolences. So yes they were friendly IRL
I have never met a Christian in my life...
Nor do I ever expect to meet one...

This is a fictionalized version of the life of the Royal Family.
If you want a real sermon, you must go to the source.
he did answer it though, he said it's someone who believes in christ and allows the spirit of christ to enter them

Shouldn’t we all-and always-remember what Jesus said about casting stones?
A Christian is someone who follows the teachings of Jesus. Within or without any given church.
Church was founded by Augustine of Canterbury
@@RMProjects785No, the destruction of Augustine's shrine in Canterbury made it clear that there's no continuity with what he founded.
And that after he wouldn’t follow the teachings of the original Church.
So he made up his own, so that he could divorce, and/or behead any wife he wanted to; whenever and for whatever reason he wanted to.

Ditch the texts which have withstood a couple of millennia of intense scrutiny. And replace them with what?
@@richardashton9490 Those texts people read are not millennia old, they have been subject to numerous edits over the centuries.
Graham was the worst person to ever exist.
