My Favorite Book is "The Hiding Place" by
Corrie Ten Boom, with John and Elizabeth Sherrill.
Short Summary: The extraordinary adventure of one courageous Christian woman who
became a militant heroine of the anti-Nazi underground.
Summary on the back: Corrie ten Boom stood with her older sister Betsie, watching a
concentration camp matron beating a prisioner. "Oh, the poor woman," Corrie cried. "Yes. May God forgive her," Betsie replied. And, once again, Corrie
realized it was for the souls of the brutal Nazi guards that her sister prayed.
Both women had been sent to camp for helping the Jews. Christ's spirit
and words were their guide; it was His persecuted people they had tried to save -- at the risk of their own lives; it was His strength that sustained them
through times of profound horror.
Here is a book aglow with the glory of God and the courage of a quiet Christian spinster whose live was transformed
by it. A story of Christ's message and the courageous woman who listened and lived to pass it along -- with joy and triumph!
(thats my favourite
