"The Hiding Place"

My book club met this past Tuesday and we discussed The Hiding Place by Corrie Ten Boom. I was excited because this is my favorite book of all time. It's a true story about Corrie T en Boom and her family who lived in Holland during World War II. Although they weren't Jewish, they worked hard to help hide Jews and aid people in any way they could. Corrie, her sister Betsy and their father were ultimately caught and sent to a concentration camp. Corrie and Betsy were two inspiring women who worked hard to uplift the people they came in contact with. They always acknowledged the hand of the Lord in all things and were so devout, even in the midst of horrible circumstances. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes inspiring and uplifting books.
