Beautiful Ashes Podcast Series: Authors Beth Shuey McGuire & Victor Fadool
After writing Beautiful Ashes, we prayed “What's next, God?”. We knew the story didn't end on page 140. Maybe you've prayed something similar, wondering about God's plan for your life. Trust me when I say, His plans are beautiful (Jeremiah 29:11). WE ARE SO EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THE RELEASE OF THE BEAUTIFUL ASHES PODCAST SERIES! We'll be walking through the Beautiful Ashes Stepping Stones of healing, outlined in Chapter 7 of the book (page 136). In each episode, we will unpack one stepping stone, diving deep into the context of each chapter. Thank you for celebrating this exciting launch with our team. Please listen to the first episode, and expect another one soon. We'd love for you to share with your loved ones and join the conversation!

Stepping Stone One: The Floor
“My story begins with me in the fetal position on the floor. I was shaking uncontrollably, reflecting on the past twenty years of my life. I lay in the entrance to the bedroom that rarely provided the safety or intimacy I had craved my entire life; the room most people consider the safest in their home.
All I could do was cry while trying to prevent myself from vomiting.
I don’t know if I can accurately convey in words the reality of this moment. If you’ve been here, you know. If you haven’t, or feel that you’re en route, I will do my best to share what I wish I had known before it got to this point. If one marriage is saved by a willingness to do the impossible (fighting as if their lives depended on it while obtaining a level of forgiveness and grace only exhibited in and through the love of Jesus Christ), then I will have fulfilled what I now understand is God’s purpose for my life.
I’ll say this over and over: It will get better. If all you hear is that right now, that’s okay. Trust me that it will get better.”
- Beth Shuey McGuire, Chapter One, Beautiful Ashes
THE BEAUTIFUL ASHES PODCAST SERIES: THE SEVEN STEPPING STONES TO HEALING
In this Beautiful Ashes podcast, Stepping Stone One: The Floor, we’ll encourage you as hear Beth navigate moving from the floor. If you haven’t read the book, we encourage you to follow along in our podcast while reading Chapter 1.
Joining the conversation will be founding pastor and director of the Healing Place at Cross Timbers Church. Brian’s experience alongside Beth and Vic will begin the process of navigating out of the ashes and into the beautiful life God has in store.
LETS GET OFF THE FLOOR TOGETHER!
We’d love for you to share with your family, friends, and anyone you know that would benefit from joining the conversation!
