The Hiding Place

This is a great book about finding faith in truly disheartening times. Corrie ten Boom was a brave dutch woman who, along with her family, worked with the dutch underground to hide jews from the German soldiers. They obtained stolen ration cards, forged papers and addresses for families in outlying areas who could take them in. The few that were a higher risk because they looked “too jewish” or they had health problems stayed with Corrie and her family. A secret room was added to the house so they could hide when the Gastapo came. They had drills and tried to be prepared for the grueling questioning by the german soldier's but how can one really prepare for such a thing?
