A Robertson Family Christmas


A Robertson Family Christmas

 

'Duck Dynasty' stars describe their favorite reads.

 

By Willie and Korie Robertson in the Wall Street Journal

 

Both of Marcus Luttrell's books—"Lone Survivor" and "Service"—should be on the required reading list for every school in America. We take for granted the freedoms we have in this country and have very little idea of the sacrifices that military families make to ensure that we keep them. "Service: A Navy SEAL at War" will open your eyes: Mr. Luttrell honors those that have lost their lives fighting for our freedoms and reveals a strength of character and a commitment to fellow man and country that we should all aspire to have.

The message of "David and Goliath" by Malcolm Gladwell is that you're really only the underdog if you believe yourself to be. I love the passage in the Bible, Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Him who gives me strength." You may have to work a little harder, or a little smarter, or a little longer, but every one of us can turn our disadvantages into advantages and can overcome what may seem to be insurmountable odds. Finally, a recommendation of "Si-cology 1." Our uncle is a great family man and a great man of God. This sad and funny book shows how he became who he is today.

— Mr. and Mrs. Robertson are stars of "Duck Dynasty."
