Cornelia Arnolda Johanna "Corrie" ten Boom was a
Dutch watchmaker who helped many Jews seek refuge during the Holocaust. In her
unforgettable biography, The Hiding Place, ten Boom recounts her extraordinary
experiences through World War II and illustrates how Christ's strength
sustained her.
Ms. ten Boom has long been honored as a heroine of
Christian faith in action. Her words and stories continue to have great
relevance and impact in our world today.
As a senior in College I had the opportunity to travel the Winter Olympics in Innsbruck, Austria. On the flight to Zurich, our group discovered that Corrie ten Boom was on our flight. I seized the opportunity to introduce myself and enjoy a 20 minute conversation with this hero of faith!
Here are a few of my favorite quotes
from this inspirational figure.
