Phil Robertson Chose Ducks Over Pro Football & Doesn't Regret It

Reluctant "Duck Dynasty" star and "Unashamed" podcast host Phil Robertson joins Christian to talk about why he walked away from a pro football career and encouraged his backup QB, Terry Bradshaw, to take his place. Phil also talks about the decision to turn his life over to the Lord. Over 45 years ago, Phil's sister said to a pastor about her brother: "If you convert him, he'll convert thousands." Phil tells Christian he never thought he'd be speaking to the world about Jesus Christ, but it's one of the great joys and privileges of his life, and he's fired up about Jesus returning! Phil's son, Al Robertson, joins the conversation to share his childhood experience of watching countless young men drift toward his dad to ask for advice and instruction. While Phil wasn't following Jesus at that time, it was an incredible foreshadowing of Phil's future leadership in sharing the Gospel. Phil encourages us to "just do good like Jesus did ... and we'll be all right."  - Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
