Detailed description:
“Every experience God gives us . . . is the perfect preparation for the future only He can see.”–Corrie ten Boom
Corrie ten Boom was a Dutch watchmaker who became a heroine of the Resistance, a survivor of Hitler’s concentration camps, and one of the most remarkable evangelists of the twentieth century. In World War II she and her family risked their lives to help Jews and underground workers escape from the Nazis, and for their work they were tested in the infamous Nazi death camps. Only Corrie among her family survived to tell the story of how faith ultimately triumphs over evil.
Here is the riveting account of how Corrie and her family were able to save many of God’s chosen people. 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.
“A groundbreaking book that shines a clear light on one of the darkest moments of history.”–Philip Yancey, author, The Jesus I Never Knew
“Ten Boom’s classic is even more relevant to the present hour than at the time of its writing. We . . . need to be inspired afresh by the courage manifested by her family.”–Jack W. Hayford, president, International Foursquare Church; chancellor, The King’s College and Seminary
“The Hiding Place is a classic that begs revisiting. Corrie ten Boom lived the deeper life with God. Her gripping story of love in action will challenge and inspire you!”–Joyce Meyer, best-selling author and Bible teacher

I loved the way it’s written. It’s a story of courage in the worst times. And how you can burn the candle of love in absolute darkness

I really love history in general and often find myself drawn to documentaries and biographies. Especially regarding WWI and WWII. I honestly feel this book has changed my life.
I would like to add I had read Anne Frank’s diary, which leaves you sad. I also didn’t feel comfortable reading her diary when it came to her teenage romance. It was uncomfortable for me and made me wonder if she would have been okay with such personal information shared with millions of strangers. On a personal note, I have many journals and when I reread them sometimes I am happy and other times I rip pages out because it is so far removed from who I am today that I wouldn’t want anyone reading them, including myself.
I have also been listening to The Watchmaker’s Daughter on Audible, which gives historical context this book does not as well as shares other people’s diaries, including Anne Frank. The Hiding Place is not like that at all.
This book is written from Corrie’s point of view and is remarkable. Will leave you feeling encouraged and changed for the better. Like, no matter what circumstance you find yourself in, no matter how dark, how impossible, how complex or evil God is always with you. It shows how we can find things to be grateful for even when on the surface they are not good.
It really shares in great depth the dynamics in her family. Her father, her mother, and her sisters, even in taking care of their aunts as they aged. This information is not found in The Watchmaker’s Daughter. The foundational beliefs formed within her home are clearly described in this book. I listened to The Hiding Place on Audible first and had to have the book. There are many pages I want to highlight and return to.
While it is a scary topic and should include a mature adult to explain, I truly think children even as young as 8 yrs old, could benefit.
Anytime I start to feel down, I will remember Betsey and Corrie’s father. Unbelievable faith and resilience. If only everyone was raised with parents with such unwavering faith. Corrie does well describing her areas of faults and growth. She shares moments of fear, moments of being conflicted between what is right and wrong (such, as lying to Nazis or Gestapo), and moments where she reflects on her sister Betsey’s great faith and allowing it to change and grow her. I have read Corrie’s book Tramp for Lord is the next book to read after The Hiding Place. I can’t recommend this book enough.

I’ve read this book many times and each time I feel inspired. This is a story of the Ten Booms love for others and the cost of that love. However, they had no regrets… During the nazi occupation of Holland this family hid and helped many Jews. Corrie records everything they did to help them… it’s incredible! They were sent to prison for it and while some didn’t survive, Corrie was released after being in two concentration/work camps. Her story starts before the war begins and how Semitic mentality slowly creeps into Harleem…the results of war and the after effects of the war. But above all, it is a story of faith. Tremendous faith and trust in the Almighty! When everything seemed hopeless ( and their situation was dire) they chose hope. It’s so inspiring!

Li este livro quando andava no liceu, e nunca mais me esqueci dele! A historia das irmãs, num campo de concentração Nazi, e tudo que passaram – e a fé que as manteve vivas – é um testemunho inesquecível. A frase que nunca mais esqueci – embora já me tinha esquecido do titulo do livro – e que me ajudou a encontrar o livro foi “Graças a Deus pelas pulgas”. Parece improvável, mas no meio de tanto mal, tanto sofrimento, tão pouca esperança – A Corrie ainda agradeceu Deus pelas pulgas. Só lendo…a acreditem, vale mesmo a pena ler.
Quando pensamos que não há esperança, há sempre algo pelo qual temos que agradecer. Sempre.

Excellent book that causes you to cry, laugh, and seek His face in the midst of a trial. The wisdom Corrie possessed is timeless.
