Beauty of Ashes

BEAUTY OF ASHES What a strange statement! What beauty can we expect from a heap of ashes? There is nothing attractive about it. At best ash can be thrown to the ground as manure to be trampled over by men.

I am not surprised that when Jesus saw the weariness of his apostles, the Lord not only told them to go away to a quiet place, but he also called them to be with him. Getting away wasn't enough. Resting and being alone, far away from the crowd, wouldn't rekindle the holy fire they needed to minister. No matter how restful retreat from the maddening rush may seem at the time, getting away by itself will not restore ... More

Study Material

Your word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. We look to the Bible as the guidebook for our lives. It illuminates our feet, so that we know where we are, and shines light on our path to show us where to go. Therefore, it is important to have an accurate understanding of the Scriptures. We gather to study the Bible regularly. As we progress through different books of the Bible, God teaches us and confirms our faith. More
