47 - THE GIVING TREE: How this Children's Story Helps Us Grow Closer to God... *Special Book Episode*

from Family Movie Night for Latter-Day Saints | LDS, Family Movies, Disney Movies, Christian Movies, Kid Movies · host Valerie Beus - Christian & Latter-day Saint & Disney fan

Do you feel like you give everything to help those you love? Have you maybe taken for granted God's endless love for YOU? In today's episode we discuss the beloved Shel Silverstein's 1964 Classic Children's Book: The Giving Tree. If you are searching for uplifting media or lessons for Christian families relating to faithful parenting, bettering your relationship with God, relationships with others, and selfless service, then you've come to the right place! For all my faith-filled, kids' book lovers (especially my SHEL SILVERSTEIN fans!) this is one you won't want to miss! Talk to you in the episode! ~Valerie~ **NOTE: In this episode I accidentally referred to the Tree as "he" a few times because I'd forgotten it says in the book "her apples/branches/trunk". I had been comparing the tree to God, so without realizing I was still calling it a "he" instead of the written "she".
