Nathan Kistler has been working in Christian ministry in Washington DC for over 14 years.  Throughout those years of ministry, he and his wife (Amber) have had the great privilege of serving the most powerful people on the planet.  This opportunity to serve has given Nathan an acute understanding of the needs of Congress and the ability to share Jesus with these highly stressed Individuals.  Part of Nathan’s work has been to educate the church on how we can be known in the halls of power for our encouragement.  Nathan would be honored to come share in your church or event about the work his team is doing to share Jesus with lawmakers.

Born and raised in Vivian, Louisiana, Phil Robertson came from a large family with 7 children and little money. Because of the location of his family home in a rural setting near Shreveport, and the aforementioned scarcity of money, hunting became an important part of his formative years. Never satisfied with the duck calls on the market, Phil began to experiment with making a call that would produce the exact sound of a duck. A duck call for duck killers, not for, as Phil described, “world champion-style duck callers.” Phil stated, “No duck would even place in a duck calling contest.” In 1972, Phil Robertson gave up a coaching career for his love of duck hunting when he whittled a better duck call than any on the market, the first Duck Commander call. His first year, Robertson sold $8,000 worth of duck calls and his wife, Kay, somehow managed to feed four boys on that salary. The same year, he received a patent for this call and in 1973, formed the Duck Commander Company.
