Discovering Beauty from Ashes

Finding God's Purpose in Your Deepest Pain

 

Discovering Beauty from Ashes

A Bible Journaling Class of Hope, Healing, and Renewal

Finding Redemption in the Middle of Real Life

There was a time I thought my story was too messy to be used by God.
Too painful. Too broken. Too unfinished.

But what I found was this:
God doesn't waste a single chapter.
Not the sorrow, not the setbacks, not even the seasons when it all felt like ashes.

He was writing a story of redemption all along.

In Discovering Beauty from Ashes, I invite you to walk with me through real-life stories of heartbreak and healing—woven together with Scripture, Bible journaling, and creative reflection.

You’ll see that the God who brought beauty from my ashes is ready to do the same in your life, too.

This Class Is for You If:

  • You’ve walked through grief, disappointment, or broken dreams.

  • You’re longing to see purpose in your pain.

  • You want a creative, soul-nourishing way to draw closer to God.

  • You need the reminder: Beauty is being born even now.


Why This Study is Different:

Discovering Beauty from Ashes isn’t just another Bible study.
It’s not a set of neat lessons or distant theology.

This study is a walk through real life—through heartbreak, loss, mistakes, and redemption.
In every lesson, I lay open pieces of my own story alongside the timeless truths of Scripture, so you can see what it looks like when God's promises meet real human pain.

Here, you won’t just read about healing—you’ll feel the ache, the hope, and the slow, beautiful work of restoration.

Through storytelling, journaling, and reflection, you’ll experience the power of vulnerability, creativity, and the living Word meeting you right where you are.

This isn’t about having the right answers.
It’s about meeting the God who makes beauty out of brokenness.

MEET YOUR INSTRUCTOR

Hi, I'm Robin Sampson McCarthy. 

I've written 37 Bible journaling classes over the years, but Discovering Beauty from Ashes has been the hardest by far. 

Why?
Because this time, I couldn’t stay at a safe distance.
God called me to open the doors I would have preferred to keep closed—to share the hidden scars, the dark valleys, the parts of my story most people never see.

This class is different.
I don’t just teach about God’s power to redeem pain—I bleed on every page.

Every lesson is an offering of real life, real loss, and real hope.

If you've ever wondered whether God could bring beauty out of the broken places in your life, I want you to know:

You are not alone.

There is a Redeemer who writes stories more beautiful than we could ever imagine—even from ashes.

I would be honored to walk this journey with you.
