Beautiful Ashes

Beth’s Story

Beth’s Testimony aired at Cross Timbers Church and its satellite campus in Denton, TX. The release of her testimony served as a catalyst for discipleship, her and Vic authoring and publishing Beautiful Ashes, inevitably spring-launching Beautiful Ashes Ministries.

BORN TO BLOOM

Featured Event

This podcast will help you get to know us and better understand our mission.

Born to Bloom was an annual conference designed to equip women with practical tools and encouragement, through inspiring speakers and interactive workshops, all while cultivating a meaningful community.

This featured video shared the journey of Beautiful Ashes, highlighting Beth’s story, her encounter with Jesus, her friendship with Vic, and the supportive community that helped bring Beautiful Ashes Ministries to life.

Alone? Never.

At the retreat, you’ll find space to breathe again- space to be still, connect, and let God meet you right where you are.

Here’s what you can look forward to:
- Quiet moments journaling with Jesus
- Deep, soul-filling conversations around the campfire
- Live worship that draws your heart back to His
- Peaceful time kayaking along the river
- Breaking bread and sharing meals with new friends
- Interactive sessions that spark healing and growth
- Community that keeps walking with you long after the weekend ends

Every part of this retreat is designed to help you slow down, connect deeply, and let the Spirit work in and through you.

Come expectant. He’s already preparing the way.

We’re so excited to welcome Anna Boyd as one of our new speakers for the October retreat! Anna first joined us as an attendee- and now she returns to share a powerful session on our nervous system’s design for relationship with Christ.

Through simple, accessible language, Anna will show how God beautifully wired our bodies to draw us back to His presence. She’ll explore why practices like stillness, silence, and meditation truly work- helping calm our nervous systems and bring us into deeper communion with Him.

We can’t wait for you to experience her wisdom and gentle encouragement this fall at Rest Yourself River Ranch 💜

🍂 The first day of fall is a reminder to pause and reflect:

-Where do I feel distant from Jesus right now?
-In what ways am I isolating myself from community?
-What would it look like to invite someone into the hard places I’m walking through?
-Where do I need to be honest with God—and with others—about what I’m carrying?
-How might God be asking me to trade hiding for transparency, fear for accountability, or loneliness for encouragement?

Take a moment to sit with these questions today. Fall is a season of release and renewal- what might God be inviting you to release, and where might He be asking you to step in closer to Him and His people?

💭 Maybe you’ve been here before:
On the floor.
Exhausted.
Ready for something different- yet unsure where to even begin.
Searching for answers, for Jesus, for people who will understand.

That’s often where women first meet Beautiful Ashes.

And by God’s grace, here’s what happens next:
🤍 Transparency - honest conversations where you don’t have to hide.
🤍 Accountability - sisters willing to speak truth in love.
🤍 Encouragement - a community that carries one another’s burdens.

This is the journey from isolation to connection, from hiding to healing, from ashes to beauty. You don’t have to walk it alone.

We are thrilled to welcome back Jayme Dixon as a returning speaker at the Beautiful Ashes Fall Retreat!

If you’ve been with us before, you know Jayme has a gift for bringing deep wisdom with warmth and clarity. This fall, she’ll be leading us into the intersection of attachment and theology- helping us see how our attachment styles can reflect the way we show up in relationship with Jesus.

Through grounding ourselves in the secret place with God and seeking His wisdom in Scripture, Jayme will walk us toward secure attachment and deeper intimacy with Him.

Her sessions are always powerful. You won’t want to miss this one!

A healing journey that leads to reconnection with Jesus requires grit.

It’s hard. It’s humbling. And sometimes, it hurts more before it helps.

You say you want to heal, but you still cling to the version of yourself that survived- not the one that’s ready to be made whole.

You keep numbing what needs to be felt. You keep hiding what needs to be brought into the light. You keep praying for change without making space for transformation.

Here’s the truth: Healing won’t happen if you’re more committed to comfort than to growth.

But here’s the hope: God is not afraid of your mess. He’s not waiting for you to get it together. He’s just waiting for you to let Him in 😌
