you have to show them through the way you behave god's people are the ones who are showing
the world what jesus is like and if we don't do it cameron where else is it going to come from
if god's people are not going to show the world around us jesus who's going to do it
before you were the duck commander nope before you were an entrepreneur a businessman a guy on tv
what were you like as a young man as a heathen were you heather well oh yeah i went to church
but unfortunately the term going to church is not in the bible you think about it without god
cameron there is no hope and as a young man you didn't have that hope you didn't
you went to church but you didn't have that hope nope i got in college you're like did
you ever hear anyone speak kindly of the father son or holy spirit your entire college career
not one kind word not one i came out at best at agnostic if anyone had seen me
up till i was 28 they would have said that guy is up the devil himself that guy's up to no good
i never had heard the gospel so when i heard it let me get this right all of my sins going to
be removed and it's all on god he's the one that did it i'm not good enough to earn it i've already
proven that free of charge resurrected body from the ground constant mediating work while we're
here when we make mistakes not counting against you the blood continually cleansing us be sought
in light of the world most people are not coming to church buildings and say what's going on here
not this culture yeah we're gonna have to be when they see us cameron the way we roll we're
gonna have to impact them for good or they're not gonna change we're not conformed to the pattern of
the world we we've renounced that that's what i'm saying i hear just what you're saying phil you um
it's amazing what different worlds we come from i come from hollywood california and
you're in the louisiana woods but we have things in common we love this country we appreciate and
we value the the principles upon which it was is founded hollywood meets redneck we we have a meal
we have a great time but you know no we have something else in common you've raised four
boys i'm raising three boys and uh my your boys are growing mine are getting there what would you
say is wrong with parenting today in your opinion all scripture is god-breathed and is useful for
teaching rebuking take the scriptures and teach them take the scriptures and rebuke them nope
you're going in the wrong direction they're about ten there are five you say nope come back here
that gets out of whack you end up with what you now have if you keep that in front of them
all the time they won't depart from me all mine faithful godly men they got their wives and all
their little kids you know now they're training their children how i train them so and you need
to keep it and that way it becomes generational and you don't lose it in in one generation
i was a product of the 60s unfortunately for me you joined the crowd all i joined them at 28
put on my brakes and said wait a minute i'm running miss k off i run the kids off getting
drunk i said smoking dope running whoring around i'm like i never had heard the gospel so therefore
i did not think it worthwhile until i was 28. phil if you could go back and
speak to the 20 year old version of yourself what advice would you give phil robertson
now all the ones we work with in the rehabs the prisons when i'm seeing these 20 year olds
it is a tough call for me to say i've been down the road you you're currently on i've been on
that road it's a road that leads to nowhere my own nephew tried to steer him in the right direction
i told him look two roads one's wide and one's narrow the narrow road is way way better you'll
have hope i said these jugs are not gonna do it man they're not gonna do it that literally
hang themselves in his jail cell wow so we attended that funeral so i've seen it happen
within my own kin folks well all those twenty-o's you're talking about it's a tough sale to get
them to turn very tough we continue to try for everyone that makes it out of there we're like
whoa that one there made it but most of them they're slaves to the flesh and you can't get them
off of it i i think it's it's a challenge to grow up anywhere whether you're out here in louisiana
and you could have the appearance of religion out here because you got a church on every corner or
you could be in a place like hollywood california the place that generates a lot of trash that goes
out into the world through movies and music and other kinds of things politics whatever
but i think there's an opportunity for everyone to turn their heart to love god and to love their
neighbor and and i appreciate you devoting so much of your time helping people to do that and talking
about it boldly you have to show them through the way you behave god's people are the ones who are
showing the world what jesus is like and if we don't do it cameron where else is it going to
come from if god's people are not going to show the world around us jesus who's going to do it
i mean you say the heather's not going to do it no they don't have the spirit of god it'll be safe
and it's hard to show them that two hours on sunday morning inside a church building
they're not inside they're not where they are if you went every time the doors were open i gave you
about four hours out of 168 in a week you're like what are you doing the other 164 hours where you
work is where you can point them to jesus where you work where you play that's when you show them
we now have god confined to structures with tall steeples in front of them they're all in rows
and you really don't even really know that person right down there hey how you doing pretty good
one time a week yeah it's not enough you're not going to cut it not enough you got to have family
structures meeting together in their homes where they eat where they play like this yeah you're
coming from we're we're we're interacting here yeah he said we have to do more of that you say so
you and ms k and the darker knight are not arguing and bickering and calling each other names no sir
my woman my wife best friends i'm not gonna be mean to that woman you say well when does the sex
play out because you're a younger man now i'm 72 you're gonna have to find someone older than i am
because it's still going so i'm giving you some encouraging words it's still happening even in
your 70s phil this has been great this is awesome thank you for spending the whole morning with me
showing me how to catch catfish how to clean and how to cook them this is this is the best fish
just a little a little a a millimeter just a little redneck might wear off on you and you
go back to you take that back to california i might start growing a beard think about it
