The Broken Christmas Tree

By: Brandt, Elvin

The story of The Broken Christmas Tree is all about one lonely tree on a tree farm in Pennsylvania which no one cares for or picks for their home at advent time. Unfortunate things happen as time goes on, meaning several years; and after a time, the tree believes it will never help celebrate the true meaning of Christmas. Now, although we don't believe trees have feelings and understand that the people who reject it year after year really mean no bad intentions, the lesson to be taught is that people do feel hurt emotionally when they are passed by for all kinds of reasons.

After many years of working with children having special needs and most of all emotional issues, the author writes this tale with the understanding that adults in the lives of all our children can use it as a stepping-stone to teach about bullying and self-esteem. The positive emphasis is that none of us know the plan for our life in totality, and there is always a special reason God has for each of us.

So will the tree fully understand why it was left behind and what the rest of its life was going to be?

Read the story and enjoy His coming to earth for us this season.
