A Life That Says Welcome
Simple Ways to Open Your Heart & Home to Others

Great hospitality isn’t about gourmet food
or gorgeous décor (what a relief!)

You can pitch the excuses and start inviting others into your home. Why? Because it doesn’t matter what size your house is, how it’s decorated, whether or not it’s spotless, or what you cook or don’t cook. The secret to hospitality is more about the condition of your heart than the condition of your home.

A Life That Says Welcome helps you make others feel refreshed, rather than impressed, in your presence. It’s packed with delicious, simple recipes and inspiring tips on how to:

ensure that your family feels loved, wanted, and welcome

decorate well on a budget

de-clutter your home

make the most of your space (no matter how small)

be prepared for unexpected company
You’ll be encouraged to not only open your home but to open your life as an avenue for God’s love everywhere you go.

Praise for Karen’s Latest Book:

“Wouldn’t it be fun to have Martha Stewart, Betty Crocker, and Shirley Dobson as your next-door-neighbors? Well, okay, maybe not. How about something even better – your very own “mentor in a book!” In A Life That Says Welcome, Karen Ehman is all of those wonderful influences without the intimidation. If you’ve ever longed for someone to come alongside and demonstrate what it means to be a godly home-maker, someone to show you how to truly make your house a home, then your (and my) prayers have been answered.”
