Desperate Forgiveness Part Two with Al and Lisa Robertson
How do you forgive even when you don’t want to, don’t feel like it, or have no idea how to? If you missed part one, be sure to go back and listen to that first! Today we are doing even deeper into forgiveness. We will be sharing why to forgive, the freedom on the other side of it, and how to move forward in forgiveness.
In today’s episode, Kimberly Holmes continues the conversation with Al and Lisa Robertson of Duck Dynasty, who are sharing their story of desperate forgiveness. You will hear about how they have used forgiveness to free them, heal them, and restore their marriage.
Today’s Speakers – Al and Lisa Robertson
Alan Robertson is the oldest son of the Duck Commander, Phil Robertson and his wife, Miss Kay and Lisa calls herself “the original Robertson daughter-in-law”. They appeared on the family’s hit television show, Duck Dynasty on A&E, with the rest of the family where Al was known as the beardless brother. They pastored for 22+ years at the White’s Ferry Road Church in West Monroe, LA before returning to the family business, Duck Commander, to appear on the TV show and speak around the country. They partnered with Miss Kay and opened Miss Kay’s Sweets and Eats in West Monroe in 2016.
Al and Lisa have written and co-written devotional books, books about the Robertson family and also their own story, A New Season. They partnered with Focus on the Family for their latest book, Desperate Forgiveness.

A truly amazing and inspiring history of Al and Lisa Robertson
Thank you so very much for sharing
Thank you for sharing. Forgiveness is difficult and takes courage and strength to approach those that have hurt you or a loved one. Have been battling a situation myself that happened twenty years ago. It has been on my heart to write them what happened as it is not my character to have done what happened, it was done in support of family, it has eaten at me for years that I allowed myself to be put in that place. God works in such ways we don’t understand until we need to.
