My wife and I think it’s the just about the best show on tv. There’s never anything bad, no cussing, no meanness, just wholesome family entertainment. The fact that they all say grace at the dinner table at the end is refreshing to see on tv nowadays. Hopefully there will be a few more seasons.

For the Robertsons’ four sons — Alan, Jase, Willie and Jephtha — going to bed at night with people still in their home studying Scripture was normal.

“I would get up for school, and there would be two to three people asleep on the couch, their wet clothes over a chair,” Alan said. “At some point Dad had baptized them in the river near our house.”

Friends and relatives estimate that the Duck Commander has baptized more than 300 in the nearby Ouachita River.

His first public-speaking opportunity came in the early 1990s when fans asked him to give a duck-calling seminar at the Superdome in New Orleans.

Standing before 1,000 people, Roberts first went through his various duck calls, including tips and techniques of duck-hunting.

Suddenly, he thought that this moment presented him with a terrific opportunity to preach.

Reaching into his shoulder bag, he pulled out his Bible.

“Folks, while I’m here,” he said, “I think I’m gonna preach you a little sermon.”

A surprised murmur spread through the crowd. Undeterred, he went on.

“I’m standing under a sign that says, ‘Budweiser is the King of Beers,’ and everybody’s got their beer here today,” he recalled saying. “But I’m here to talk about the King of Kings.”

Afterward, the crowd applauded enthusiastically. Invitations to speak poured in.

Anybody provide any info on the Christian beliefs of the Church of Christ? I googled it but didn’t find anything too black and white. I went to this Church’s website and they have one prominent photo of two men hugging with a caption stating that they welcome all, making me believe they are referring to practicing homosexuals.

Duck Dynasty is a great show, clean fun, with real folks having a good time.

I’m a city boy, and I don’t miss this show.

You better believe it, Jack!

I think you might appreciate my letter to Phil Robertson’s church.

Kindest regards,

James Sundquist

****
Dear Pastors, Members and Elders of White’s Ferry Road Church,

In followup to my appeal to you about Rick Warren, you should be alerted to the following.

I am still hoping you will respond to my last email regarding Rick Warren.

Now it is widely known that Robertson is a Fundamentalist Christian, for which he should be commended! But Rick Warren thinks Fundamentailst Christians are enemies of the 21st Century. So why would Phil Robertson, an elder at your church, speak at Saddleback Church? And why would your church promote Rick Warren which is also Fundamentalist Christian in its beliefs (not the denomination). I agree we should defend the beliefs of Phil, but shouldn’t we defend the victims of Rick Warren?

In 2006, Rick Warren told Charlie Rose that he told Eric Sawyer, gay activist leader: “how can I help you get your message out? This does not sound like what Phil Robertson believes. Do you support Rick Warren getting that message out?

Also, do you stand by his latest false advertising that Warren’s PDL book is “the best selling non-fiction hardback book in history” and “most translated” too, which is easily refuted? Proof:

http://www.perfectpeaceplan.com/post/is-rick-warrens-claim-that-his-book-is-the-best-selling-non-fiction-hardback-book-in-history-true/

So I appeal to you and to Phil Robertson to reconsider your support and promotion of Rick Warren.

I look forward to your response!

Sincerely in Christ,

James Sundquist
Director
