"During our thirty years of friendship, I have watched Beth put into practice the ideas she shares in this delightful book. In her relaxed way, she has captured the essence of what it means to make a dwelling place. Creating cozy spaces that allow for more intimate interactions and reaching out to "homeless hearts" are two of the many themes she develops. And to give a broader perspective, Beth has incorporated the wisdom of many interesting people she interviewed. This book offers inspiration and practical advice to anyone who desires a place where body, soul, and spirit can be refreshed." -Mimi Wilson, co-author of Once-a-Month Cooking and author of Holy Habits  

"Beth's writing is authentic and inviting - because that's who she is as a person. Lucky for readers that Dwelling is a thoughtful extension of who she is, reminding us of the one thing that connects us to each other, despite our cultural, economic or religious differences, the longing for home. This is a helpful and insightful book that gives new meaning to the word, homecoming." -Jo Kadlecek, author of Desperate Women of the Bible, and The Lightfoot Trilogy (fiction) and assistant professor of creative writing and communication arts at Gordon College  

"Thank you for sharing your book with me it couldn't have came at a better time for me right in the middle of making the house I bought become the home I have always wanted.  Thanks for helping me start to re align my distorted vision of home. Thanks for helping me put into place so many things I thought I had lost and for leaving me with such a settled feeling about family and home. I can't wait for you to see what an amazing thing God has done by providing me with a home to call my very own and some place to start to make good memories. -Kim  With a warmth that's as attractive as a crackling fire on a wintry day, Dwelling is a praise song to all the charms of home.  Gather the ones you love around you and use Beth Lagerborg's ideas for creativity, fun, style, deeper relating, and expressed love to transform living spaces into soulful places that deserve to be called home.
-Valerie Bell, author of Faith-Shaped Kids and A Well-Tended Soul.
