since becoming part of the Robertson family is that Miss Kay has always taken care of Phil, and he has loved and cherished her. Even after many years together, they still laugh, they still love, and they still hug and kiss each other (even in front of the family and other people). Miss Kay still crawls into Phil’s lap while he sits in his big recliner, andwhen he walks close to her, he tickles her or gives her a pinch on the rear end.
Miss Kay and Phil have an amazing love for God and for people. They believe not only in giving second chances but also in giving third and fourth chances. When they need a little extra work done on their property, they often hire people who need help and try to help them as best they can. They spend hours and hours, several nights a week, counseling people and sharing their wisdom with them. If Jep and I can do even half of the good things Phil and Miss Kay have done, we will consider ourselves to have truly succeeded and made a difference in the world.

Phil and Miss Kay are definitely not typical in-laws. So many good qualities set Phil and Miss Kay apart from other people, but I think their best quality as a couple is their teamwork in serving others. They host many people in their home; they have always done this. Many of these people need wisdom, advice, salvation, or simply the knowledge that someone really cares about them.
Miss Kay used to cook all the meals and Phil used to do all the preaching and counseling. Over the years, they have realized that both of them have both of those strengths. Now Miss Kay and Phil both do the cooking, and they both sit down after the meal to talk with people, whether they are counseling a couple in a marriage crisis or sharing the message of Jesus with someone. They have grown together over the years and have recognizedand embraced each other’s strengths. This makes for a strong and godly marriage.

Anyone who knows Miss Kay and Phil would have to say they are some of the most hospitable people anyone could ever find, anywhere. When I first met them, they did not have much money, but their home was always open. They lived in the same house they currently live in, but it was about half the size it is now. The kitchen was incredibly small, with no dishwasher, but that did not stop them from having guests regularly. They cooked huge, delicious meals out of that tiny kitchen, and everyone just gathered around standing or sitting on every available surface to enjoy the meal and laugh and talk together. They understood the true value of good conversation, good friends, good food, and family togetherness. Those things mattered more to them than anything else.
It’s important to understand that the warm, fun, loving environment Miss Kay and Phil have created in their home did not happen automatically. In fact, it was years in the making. Miss Kay forgave Phil when a lot of people thought she had good reason not to, and she loved him when he was unlovable. The same dynamic happened to him that often happens when we truly understand that God forgives us and loves us when we are unlovable: it makes us want to do better and to be better. Miss Kay offered this to Phil, and he has done the same for her.
I’m sure there were times after Phil came to Christ that he still messed up, when he still sinned and fell short. Miss Kay had to forgive him, not just that one moment when he showed up outside her workplace begging her forgiveness, but many, many times after that. Forgiveness has to be offered over and over again in any marriage, and that was certainly true for Miss Kay and Phil. As in any husband-wife relationship, each person sometimes has to be the one who needs forgiving and sometimes has to be the one who does the forgiving.
Miss Kay showed God’s love to Phil through her love and forgiveness, and he “got” it. Phil truly changed his life, and not just a little bit. He’s not a
