Enrichment
comes through shared traditions
By REV. JOHN HATCHER

Last Wednesday,
I anointed my forehead with ashes in order to participate in centuries-old
practice acknowledging the beginning of Lent. You may ask, can an ole
Southern Baptist boy participate in Ash Wednesday? Even Wednesday night,
I rubbed ashes onto the foreheads of our church's children, sharing with
them lessons of repentance, denial, and self-examination.
