WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Rev. Billy Graham's youngest daughter says the 91-year-old evangelist is preparing a sermon that he could preach in the Carolina Panthers' football stadium.

Billy Graham was born in Charlotte.

His daughter, Ruth Graham, says he's been writing a sermon that he might preach there, and has also been working on gaining the strength he'd need to appear before a stadium crowd.

She estimates preparations could take until sometime next year, but says her father is confident he'll live that long. Ruth Graham says her father told her that God has given him "a time line" that assures him he won't die this year.
