The Hiding Place
by Corrie ten Boom
My only excuse for waiting this many years to read this book is that I thought I already knew it. I had heard stories of the ten Boom family and even seen videos of Corrie ten Boom speaking. Outlines and shadows had been drawn throughout my childhood and youth, but they did no justice to the fullness of their story.
This was a tremendous book beautifully and softly written. The horrors of WW2 are couched in joy, faith, courage, and determination. I found it both inspiring and convicting. Not just the family's experiences with the war, but their gracious and generous habits before and after the war. It's a sobering encounter to see some of such meager provisions give so freely.
I cannot recommend this book loudly enough.
