The Meaning Behind Ash Wednesday: Mortality and Repentance

This week, we're kicking off a new segment - Kids Say the Most Heretical Things. instead of starting with a question, we let kids take a crack at explaining why we put ashes on our heads for Ash Wednesday. Their answers—funny, profound, and sometimes theologically questionable—give us insight into what we’re really teaching in church, whether we mean to or not. Along the way, we'll explore the history and significance of Ash Wednesday, how it connects to repentance, mortality, and Christian hope, and why facing our sin and death isn’t as dark as it seems.
