Corrie ten Boom cover

A hidden room, a secret resistance network – and a call to witness for Christ in the darkest of places

 

Corrie ten Boom and her family were watchmakers living in Haarlem, Holland in the early 20th Century. They loved God and loved to help others where they could. But their happy lifestyle was shattered when the Nazis occupied their country.

 

Corrie became involved in the Dutch resistance network to help Jews, and others targeted by the Nazi regime, find safe places to hide. But when they were found out one day, little did Corrie realise that the work God called them to was just beginning. God used Corrie to show his love, even amidst the suffering of a Nazi concentration camp.

 

The faith and courage displayed by Corrie ten Boom and her family shine through in this short, narrative biography. Part of the Hall of Faith series, you will not be able to put this thrilling book down. Be encouraged and challenged in your own faith as you read this amazing story.

Christian Focus’ Hall of Faith biographies … are highly accessible through their abbreviated length and engaging style. They will doubtless whet the appetite of many readers to learn more about these noteworthy Christians.
