The Duck Dynasty juggernaut continues to confound America’s media establishment with its ability to impact society with a Christian perspective. Who would have ever thought that a little ol’ family company in America’s rural south could cause such a stir in the big ol’ US of A?

But then, God seems to enjoy using ragtag groups of “out-of-the-box” individuals to stir things up in His “Out-of-the-Box” Kingdom.

Like them, or not—agree with them, or not—the Robertson family isn’t going away any time soon, and that’s a good thing according to 16-year-old Sadie Robertson who believes her family is helping Christians embrace their faith.

While speaking at a recent fundraiser for Prattville Christian Academy, Sadie—daughter of Korie and Willie Robertson—also said “Duck Dynasty” clubs are beginning spontaneously in schools to facilitate prayer before lunch.

“For a TV show to bring prayer into schools,” she said, “that’s awesome.”

When asked about her future, Sadie replied, “We—me, and John Luke and Cole—have all talked about that. We really just don’t know. We haven’t decided where God wants us yet.”

Some may call the “DD” phenomena a passing fad and dismiss the Robertson’s current popularity as a fluke. But in fact, it’s not the Robertson family who have created their success, though their business ingenuity unquestionably plays a role. Nor do I believe it’s a “coincidence” that “Duck Dynasty” came on this nation’s “radar” when it did. TRUNews
