About this Event
Inspired by the book The Pain Is Real, But the Promise Is Eternal: What to Do When God’s Will Hurts by Whitney J. Hogans
Life does not always unfold the way we expect. Loss, disappointment, unanswered prayers, and seasons of deep pain can leave us questioning God’s plan and struggling to reconcile faith with heartbreak. Beauty for Ashes: Finding Beauty in the Debris is a sacred gathering for women who are navigating those very moments—when faith feels stretched and healing feels uncertain.
Rooted in the powerful message of Whitney J. Hogans’ book, this experience creates space to honestly acknowledge pain while rediscovering the eternal promises of God. This is not about denying hardship or rushing healing. It is about learning how God meets us in the debris and transforms what was broken into something purposeful, beautiful, and redemptive.
During this event, participants will be guided through thoughtful reflection, faith-based encouragement, and practical tools to help them:
- Understand the purpose of pain without minimizing it
- Process grief, disappointment, and unmet expectations with honesty
- Strengthen trust in God during seasons when His will hurts
- Release shame, guilt, and spiritual confusion
- Embrace healing, hope, and renewed identity
Whitney J. Hogans brings transparency, compassion, and biblical truth to a conversation many believers struggle to voice. Through storytelling, scripture, and lived experience, she offers a message of hope for those who feel worn down, weary, or spiritually conflicted.
This experience is ideal for women who:
- Are walking through grief, loss, or major life transitions
- Feel stuck between faith and frustration
- Are seeking clarity, restoration, and renewed spiritual confidence
- Desire a safe, faith-centered environment for healing and reflection
Beauty for Ashes is more than an event—it is an invitation to sit with God in the midst of the mess and discover that even here, He is faithful. The pain is real, but the promise truly is eternal.
Come as you are. Leave encouraged, strengthened, and reminded that your story is not over. Discover simple ways to heal and glow from within. It’s all about turning life’s challenges into your personal beauty for ashes story. Don’t miss out on this empowering experience .
