Established in 2005 by a former stripper & her husband, a recovered porn addict, Beauty from Ashes Ministries, Inc. is a 501(c)3, not for profit, non-denominational, faith-based public charity dedicated to reaching women, men and children involved and/or associated with the adult entertainment and/or sex industry.

Our goal is to reach and rescue them, teach and demonstrate to them how to embrace the destiny that God has planned for them, and then train and send them back out as harvesters, to proclaim the Good News and help others in the transition.

We meet and assist with practical needs, by providing them and their families with support, life skill development, assistance with education, job placement, relocation, short term and/or residential housing, as well as Christian discipleship and addiction rehabilitation. We assist them in the transition out of and/or away from this lifestyle by providing sound biblical guidance and direction for situations brought about by their choices such as substance abuse, pregnancy, occultism, prostitution, abortion, etc. By expressing Jesus’ unconditional love, we help them to deal constructively with the consequences their and/or other’s decisions to be involved or associated with this industry and/or lifestyle have produced. Teaching them responsibility, character development and how to daily maintain a victorious and abundant life through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is our objective.

It is also our purpose to network with and support other faith-based organizations dedicated to the same and/or similar goals in assisting individuals and families that desire a healthier lifestyle.

The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,
to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor and the day of vengence of our God,
to comfort all who mourn, and provide for those who grieve . . .
to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of despair. They will be called
oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of His splendor.
Isaiah 61: 1 - 3
