“I have watched Broken Heart re-enacted in front of thousands of teenagers all over America. It is truly an inspired play that captures the miracle of the love of Jesus healing one hurting human heart of the enormous, wrenching pain caused by sin’s alienation. And it is not merely one girl’s story–it can be all of our stories.”

More Endorsements For The Play:

"I have had the privilege of experiencing Broken Heart since its debut in the early 1980's. I have seen it in many different venues, with many different actors, and with various script modifications. The Spirit has consistently and mightily used Broken Heart to reveal the battle that goes on for every young person's heart. It also powerfully demonstrates Jesus' heart for us and the beauty of receiving a new and restored heart from him. I highly recommend it."

Jeff VancilFormer Young Life Regional Director, Western Washington
