The Ocean City Tabernacle welcomes Al and Lisa Robertson, members of America’s favorite backwoods family and the Duck Commander Clan, for a weekend of family enrichment Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 28 and 29.
The couple will present a marriage seminar on Saturday at 10 a.m. They will also speak Sunday at the Tabernacle’s 8:30 a.m. traditional and 10:30 a.m. contemporary worship services.
Registration for the Saturday event is $25 per person online at

Al and Lisa will share the secrets that saved their marriage from infidelity, deceit, distrust, and shame – unfortunately, recurring themes in many marriages today, and even in the family-values-promoting, Christian-based Robertson family, according to a Tabernacle news release.
With a romance that began in junior high, the couple got off to a rocky start but soon settled into married life and had two baby girls.
Al became a pastor in the church where his family had been members for years. Then, when Lisa had an affair, the heartache and the tension became public.
Their candid story is one of rescued love and renewed commitment. After nearly getting divorced, Al and Lisa came to terms with what went wrong in their marriage, and both began the hard work of making it right, the release said.
Now, married for over 30 years, they openly share their hardships – including sexual abuse, alcohol abuse and abortion as they counsel couples in trouble and speak across the country at churches, marriage retreats, pregnancy centers and many other events.
Al and Lisa live in West Monroe, Louisiana, with the rest of the Duck Commander family. They have two married daughters and six grandchildren.
