[NOTE*: I had to update with more pictures. It is a shame that I did not know about this family whilst the "patriarch of the family" was still alive (Phil Robertson, affectionately dubbed that by his clan).
That being said, what earns my utmost respect is the way Phil loved Jesus Christ and spoke of Him at every opportunity, loved his wife and family, loved others (in keeping with the commandments) - and of course, loved hunting.
ALSO ADDED: At the end, added small section about activist Greta Thunberg and what is being called a "media gimmick", regarding IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) kidnapping them as they brought food to Gaza. I agree it is a to gain attention and promote more antisemitism and violent riots with protesters. BP-June9.2025]

There are enough videos to glean from, but apparently, A&E is picking it back up: Duck Dynasty: The Revival 2025. Willie (one of Phil's four sons) says: (The show) was a light in a dark place (referring to all the shows online that oppose Christ and Christianity and exalt evil and immorality) - BP]
And
you now therefore have sorrow: but I will see you again, and your heart shall
rejoice, and your joy no man takes from you. [Jn 16:22] words of Jesus/Yeshua
Rejoice with
them that do rejoice, and weep with them that weep. [Rom 12:15]

Clips are shown of Phil’s life, from video or TV shows, and

Robertson or his family until his passing was announced in one of my Christian
newsfeeds.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when He shall appear, we shall be like Him; for we shall see Him as He is. [1Jn 3:2]
He that said he abides in Him ought also [himself] to walk, even as He walked. [1Jn 2:6]
Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwells in Him,
and He in God. And we have known and believed the love that God has toward us.
God is love; and He that dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him. [1Jn
4:13-16]

The Celebration of Love is 1:46:55 (just shy of two hours)
The only downside is the commercials that YouTube interrupts the
service with.
It really is a celebration – but more than that, much more.
It is a testimony of Jesus the Christ, Yeshua Mashiach – who came and set the captives
free!

| The ONLY way back to the Father is through Jesus/Yeshua |
The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD has anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to proclaim liberty [freedom] to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for
ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for
the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness,
the planting of the LORD, that He [Jesus/Yeshua] might be glorified.
[Isaiah 61:1-3]

Update on Miss Kay's Health

| This may be from 2017 when the idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis was first diagnosed |
At the prompting of
his daughter, Phyllis, Phil bought his wife a necklace, a beautiful silver
fleur-de-lis. It is the symbol of purity. What an exceptional gift to give the
wife handpicked by God! The story is told at the ‘celebration’ service.

Excerpt from: KTLA.com/news
Speaking
with TV Insider, Korie
Robertson (Willie Robertson’s wife) said her mother-in-law had been
“struggling with a lot of falls.”
“I think
she forgets that she can’t really walk, so she’ll fall, and that’s been hard to
deal with,” she told the outlet.

[Phil Robertson ]– close to his last words, according to Willie, were: “Love fully; serve humbly, and never let go of family or beliefs.”
 |
| Robertson clan |
That reminds me of one of my favourite Bible verses (all my verses are favourites, it just depends when I am using them lol): However, it reminds me of this:
He has shown
you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you, but to do
justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God. [Micah 6:8]
Son Willie Robertson
gave an update on Miss Kay’s health [Phil’s beloved wife of 59 years] [January
11, 1966]. As of June 9, 2025, it is reported by her son Willie that Miss Kay
Robertson is “not in the best of health”, and they are “trying to help
her”. She is also fighting ‘depression’,
understandably so after her beloved husband of nearly 60 years passed away.
May the good Lord be with the entire Robertson clan and all their beloved friends and acquaintances at this time. May He especially care for Miss Kay at this time.

| Activist Greta Thunberg and 'friends' aboard the Madleen ("Mad" is an appropriate name) |
Greta Thunberg is back in the spotlight again. She became famous for her "how dare you?" question when speaking at the UN [United Nations] in 2019 and the WEF [World Economic Forum] in 2021, over the world leaders' failing to do much about climate change.

| one minute--partying Trance-Nova music festival Gaza 2023 |
We all know the story of the 360 murders of people of all ages at the Nova music festival, not to mention the kidnappings, the taking of hostages. Over 1200 people have been reported killed. October 7, 2023 marked the beginning of Israel-Hamas war.
 |
| next ---running for cover |
Although the entire world was shocked at first at the horrific attack on the innocent people killed, tortured, and raped at the festival, it did not take long before the world turned on Israel. There are so many conflicting stories. Antisemitism is at an all-time high, just as foretold in the Bible.
There is video evidence that Israel is letting humanitarian aid through, but there have been other videos showing the interception and halting of aid.
However, Greta Thunberg is guaranteed to go down in history. A video clip was released with Greta Thunberg introducing herself and stating:
"My name is Greta Thunberg and I am from Sweden. If you see this video, it means that we have been intercepted and kidnapped on international waters by the Israeli occupational forces, or forces that support Israel. I urge all my friends, family, and comrades to put pressure on the Swedish government to release me and others as soon as possible."
The boat called the Madleen, was carrying aid to Gaza, with intents to "raise international awareness of the humanitarian crisis there." Once again, people are coming against Israel for intercepting and calling the boat a "selfie yacht".

They had their hands in the air in a 'surrender' gesture, whether it was voluntary or instructed is not known.
They are still detained as of today, June 9, 2025, at 9:30 pm EST.

My head spins over the hatred, the lies and the deception filling this earth. Betrayal and deception were two words strongly placed upon my heart, and I know of two families hit, mine being one of them.
Satan and his legions hate God and all His children, not only the Israelites, but also the Body of Christ in particular. However, it is all of God's creation that the enemy seeks to destroy, but my point is that he first targets God's people.
The war is real, but God has armies of holy angels that are far more powerful than all of Satan's armies.
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, And prevailed not; neither was their place found anymore in heaven.
And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. [Rev 12:7-9]
For I will defend this city, to save it, for My own sake, and for My servant David's sake.
And it came to pass that night, that the angel of the Lord went out, and smote in the camp of the Assyrians a hundred fourscore and five thousand (185,000): and when they arose early in the morning, behold, they were all dead corpses. [2Kings19:34-35]
God will defend us also. I know of four times that angels intervened at God's command and literally saved me from accidents that would have either killed me or seriously injured me. (The third time it happened, I had a witness.)
El Shaddai is very much involved in our lives today, and we have Jesus/Yeshua to thank for that. For all of eternity, we will be able to thank Him, and live in His presence. What a glorious hope to look forward to!
For He shall give His angel charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. [Ps 91:11]
Are they [angels] not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation. [Heb 1:14]
for His glory alone
