Beneath the Ashes

Sometimes God doesn't meet us after the fire. Sometimes He's already standing in the ashes. “Beneath the Ashes” takes the story deeper into the darkness. After the initial fight to break free, the character is forced to confront what remains after everything has burned away. It's a song about discovering that brokenness doesn't make someone worthless. Even when faith feels distant and hope feels impossible, Christ can still be present in the places we are most afraid to look. Beneath the shame. Beneath the regret. Beneath everything that was destroyed... there is still life.
