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 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

"This book is one of my favorites. The faith and trust this family put in God is exemplary and extraordinary. It's hard to know that people had to live through such horrible events. "
Mia Corkum
"I loved it! Truly a life changing book on how to live with faith and love. January 2nd"
Melissa Hudson
"A simply amazing book. Possibly the best memoir about the Nazi occupation. A must read."
Ricki Marking-Camuto
"I really liked this book but it was way more religious than I expected. It’s about a watchmakers daughter and how they took in anyone who needed help"
Ela Sommer
"Books that leave me with a book hangover are the best. This is one of those books. <br/><br/>This book made me laugh, and it also made me cry. Corrie highlights her experience with some of the horrors of WWII concentration camps, without dwelling on them, instead using these experiences as examples of how God can work even in the most wretched of situations."
Megan McCormick
"The story of Corrie's commitment to ALWAYS telling the truth has inspired me to strive to do the same for the last forty years. I've shared it with many others. "
