    About this audiobook


    Strength Will Not Save, but Love Just Might!

    (Author's narration)


    A tree is torn from his forest home and all that he loves, but there is courage in the heart of a little boy to protect his belovèd tree.


    All the magic of Christmas is embodied in this Bible-inspired and ecologically-minded tale of wonder. We ride on the wind through an ancient forest, hear shepherds and wise men tell Yuletide stories, and fly to Heaven on imagined wing. We see Santa appear on a cold winter's night, dance with young children on a Christmas morn bright, and bask in the love of our Lord's delight.


    The author dreamt up this story after seeing abandoned trees on city sidewalks, but here his invention of a magical journey for one such tree will transport you through time and space and otherworldly encounter, even to the throne of God!


    And there is no better narrator to tell this story than the author himself, a professional voice actor, who endows his audiobooks with an entertaining assembly of characters, from city garbage collectors to messenger birds to heavenly choirs.


    In the tradition of our timeless Christmas tales, The Christmas Tree is a testament to love in this world and the next.


    "Lyrical, spiritually enchanting, this little story… becomes an important part of our literature."
