The BGEA was instrumental in: founding the magazine, CHRISTIANITY TODAY, and Wheaton College's Billy Graham Center; sponsoring a series of international and regional conferences on evangelism, beginning in 1966. Its headquarters was in Minneapolis, with office in other US and foreign cities. A trial program was initiated during 1962-1963 to train theological seminary students as counselors for the BGEA's Southern California Crusade, held in 1963. This was the precursor of the Schools of Evangelism held prior to a Billy Graham crusade to train counselors.
