Today is Ash Wednesday. In case you don’t know, Ash Wednesday marks the beginning of Lent on the Christian calendar. It’s a time to reflect and prepare your heart for Easter.

Even though I grew up Methodist, I don’t remember celebrating it in my church. When I switched to Lutheran, I went to Ash Wednesday services, but it’s not something I wish to do anymore.
