If you are looking to watch something that is heartwarming and inspiring, “The Blind” would be a perfect choice for you! “The Blind” is a movie that tells the testimony of Phil Robertson, future “Duck Dynasty” star. Through the trials and tribulations he faced, his family stuck with him. Growing up he had an extremely rough childhood. His mother suffered from depression and their family struggled financially. He fell in love with his wife, “Miss Kay”, when they were in high school. Later in life, they got married and started a family. They had four beautiful children named Alan, Jase, Willie, and Jep. Whenever life got difficult, Phil turned to alcohol. This caused him to turn into someone he could not even recognize. Regardless of the spiritual battles Phil was fighting, he loved his family more than anything. Overall, this is the beautiful story of the redemption of a man who was headed to hell but turned his life around.
We really enjoyed watching this movie and it is definitely worth watching for many reasons. Learning Phil Robertson’s story inspired us to strengthen our faith in God and surrender it all to Him. After watching this movie, we realized how easy it is to allow the enemy to have control over your life. It reminded us that God wants to carry our burdens, but we have to surrender it all to Him. It also reminded us that nothing is impossible for our God. Even through his traumatic childhood and struggles with addiction, God turned Phil’s life around. He met Phil when he was at his lowest, and saved his soul. We also see the work of God in this movie through Miss Kay. When Phil was in a dark place, he gave her every reason to leave him. But she had faith that God was going to save Him.
