10 Inspiring Quotes from Corrie ten Boom

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!
