Ash Wednesday 2026: From Dust to Glory – Biblical Truth vs Pagan Myths
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
On this Ash Wednesday, February 18, 2026, join Doug Billings on The Right Side for a powerful 15-minute deep dive into the true meaning of Ash Wednesday and Lent.
Whether you’re Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, or simply feeling the call of faith today, discover why the ashes on your forehead are straight from Scripture – from Job and Daniel to Nineveh and Jesus Himself – and how this 2,000-year-old practice is more relevant in 2026 than ever.
Doug addresses head-on the “pagan roots” critics who claim Lent, Ash Wednesday, and even the Christmas tree are corrupted because of ancient origins. With charity and firmness, he dismantles the myths (including Alexander Hislop’s debunked The Two Babylons), explains how the Church Jesus founded on Peter redeems culture for Christ, and shows why these traditions bear beautiful fruit today.
Plus: the explosive 2026 faith revival among young men (Barna data), practical Lent tips for prayer, fasting, and almsgiving, and a hopeful message that the same Jesus who started His Church is still in charge – even with an American Pope calling the world to renewal.
This encouraging standalone episode is perfect for anyone seeking real hope on Ash Wednesday 2026.
