In this real-life Christmas fable, when a Dad decides to let his kids select the family Christmas tree, he gets an unexpected lesson about God’s love.

In this thoroughly contemporary holiday story, a father lets his children choose the family Christmas tree. To his surprise, the kids pick one that is crooked. As he tries one thing after another to make the tree look right, he rediscovers the power of God’s love. He begins to understand Christmas in a new way, particularly when his family decorates their tree and crown it with a star, never even noticing the crookedness he spent hours in the garage struggling to hide. The tender and laugh-out-loud narrative of real-life relationships propels the reader through the most un-generic Christmas story. This upbeat and comedic treasure refreshes the Christmas message of love and faith.

  • "From shame to shopping, tinsel to the Trinity, Damian Chandler weaves together the deep truths of theology and the trappings of every family's Christmas, and he does it with prose that shines like a Christmas star. Read this book, and you'll never look at your Christmas tree the same."

  • "This story of the crooked Christmas tree is heartwarming and life changing. Damian writes with the such beauty and profundity that the story of Christ and His love should never be the same for anyone who reads this insightful book. The Crooked Christmas tree should be a new song for all to sing"

  • "Don't wait for Easter or Christmas, this is a book for any season in life. Damian in his unique delightful unraveling draws your whole family into a story with multiple layers. Turning the complex into simple and bringing value to your life. In time when we are fragmented this is one book that can help build stronger communities, stronger families, stronger people in Jesus."

About the Author

Damian Chandler was born in Toronto Canada and raised on the island of Barbados. His ministry journey started in a small church housed in the basement of his uncle’s home. With only nine members, the burden of the ministry fell equally on the shoulders of all, including sixteen-year-old Damian. That small church created his spiritual hunger and formed the foundation of his call to ministry.

He holds a Masters of Divinity; founded Impact Youth Ministries, an urban youth ministry focused on developing teens with a contagious and fearless faith; and has served churches in Seattle, Huntsville, and now Sacramento, where he is senior pastor of Capitol City SDA Church.

Damian is passionate about ministry but he is even more passionate about family. After years of dedicated pursuit, God gave him the desire of his heart and a partner in life, his wife Tanzy Chandler. They later added to their partnership daughter Zoe and sons Salem and Levi.
