Bible Answer: Celebrating Ash Wednesday really belongs to Catholic / high church Christianity and is not generally celebrated in evangelical circles. Check out this article for information: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/01775b.htm Apparently Mel Gibson has chosen Ash Wednesday (the first day of Lent) to launch his film "The Passion." |
