Praise for Becoming Home

"Two engaging stories with a powerful, transformational message!" Karl Forehand, author of Being, The Tea Shop and Apparent Faith

“The best stories are the ones we find ourselves in. In ‘Becoming Home’, author Ben DeLong weaves a beautiful tapestry of hope through the carnage of tragedy and pain. This is a deconstructionist’s ‘Pilgrim’s Progress’, helping guide us from wounding and shame to a place of healing and learning to be comfortable in our own skin.”-Jason Elam, The Messy Spirituality Podcast
