Bible Question (short): Why celebrate Ash Wednesday? |
Question (full): Why celebrate Ash Wednesday? Can anyone provide me with reasons to observe this holiday other than "The church says so?" I know it isn't in the Bible and I believe it started around 900 AD. But, if someone can give me healthy reasons for it, I'd love to hear them. Also, any background you want to provide would be nice. And, what do you (you personally) do on Ash Wednesday? (I'm not "against" it. But I would like to hear reasons for being "for" it.) Thanks. MJH |
