    Reed, so very proud of you for going to your youth pastor. My 19 yr old son, blindsided us in Nov 2017, by taking his own life. We will never know his "why" and we do not focus on that. Jordan is in heaven. He was a believer and that is what we cling to. Knowing we will see him again BUT your dad gave you the best advice by saying that it would be the most selfish thing you could do. You are loved and created in the image of God...you were doing something right and the enemy tried to tell you otherwise. "He takes what the enemy meant for evil and He turned it for good". Blessings to you Reed 💙

    Thank you for sharing, Reed. I’m so glad you told someone. Secrecy is a weapon of destruction in the hands of the enemy. You disarmed him and ran to the One who loves you with His life. We are all glad you are still here. My family knows the pain of loss. I’m glad your family was at least spared that.

    Happy Father's Day and happy Sabbath day. I've followed you guys from the beginning and I appreciate the stories. I relapsed this year and spent little time getting back to a sober house. I hit 5 meetings a week in AA and go to church weekly. I've always used the Robertson family as positive tool in my life .There was one Christmas that I chose drugs and alcohol over family. I never wish that on anybody. It is awful and a complete Hell. Luckily on Christmas Day I came across the Christmas episode on Duck Dynasty . That alone got me through the day and allowed me to move forward. Thank you for that.

    My heart is breaking for his mom an him also.... My son just went through this when he was station in south kora. Had Christ not worked it out to where his dad was off work due to a difficult shoulder surgery."still is" I know how Missy felt. Kind of still think how dare my baby want to take an destroy the gift that the Lord gave me an his daddy. But I stop myself an thank God for letting me keep him a little longer an not letting satan destroy him. Reed you are amazing for telling your story...I struggle with my own demons I meet both mrs kay an mr phil when I lived in west monroe la at a sober living house . During the time Blake was station overseas.
