Description

In darkness God's truth shines most clear.

Corrie ten Boom was the first licensed female watchmaker in the Netherlands who became a heroine of the Resistance, a survivor of Hitler's concentration camps, and one of the most remarkable ministers of hope in the twentieth century. 

In World War II she and her family risked their lives to help Jews and underground workers escape from the Nazis. In 1944 their lives were forever altered when they were betrayed, arrested, and thrown into the infamous Nazi death camps. Only Corrie among her family survived.

This is her incredible true story--and ultimately the story of how faith, hope, and forgiveness triumphed over unthinkable evil. For 35 years millions have seen that there is no pit so deep that God's love is not deeper still. Now The Hiding Place, repackaged for a new generation of readers, continues to declare that God's love will overcome, heal, and restore.

This 35th Anniversary Edition includes:
● Photos
● Timelines
● Ten Boom family resources
● Introduction by Brother Andrew

    I could not put this book down once I got past her younger years. This book definitely makes you feel privileged because of all the hardship described. History must not be forgotten. It is heavy on the heart, though, so be prepared.
  • True faith in action
