The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible

The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible

Phil & Al Robertson, Editors. Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 2014. 1216 pp. (Hardback).

I like to include a gift suggestion in my Christmas reviews. This year’s choice is a Bible edited by Duck Dynasty’s Phil and Al Robertson that was released in October. In the interest of full disclosure I need to confess I have never watched a single episode of Duck Dynasty. That’s not because I have anything against the program; I just don’t watch television. How can I, with all of these books to read and review? 

“The Duck Commander Faith and Family Bible” is a New King James version with articles written by Phil and Al Robertson. There are 30 Life Changers articles — testimonials about lives that have been changed — and 125 Set Your Sights articles based on the most-searched topics in Bible Gateway. Each Set Your Sights article includes scripture references for further study. The articles are well-written, inspiring and engaging. 

With a topical index, reading plans and an online Bible study offered by Thomas Nelson, the Bible is a serious study tool that would probably be appealing to Duck Dynasty fans. Or nonfans.
