How One Woman’s Faith Saved Hundreds of Lives

A Verse for Meditation, Thursday, 9/4/25

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;” Psalm 23:4a NIV

Cornelia “Corrie” ten Boom was a Dutch watchmaker who, along with her family, hid hundreds of Jews in their home during the Nazi Holocaust. It’s believed their efforts saved nearly 800 lives. 

They were caught, and she was arrested and sent to the Ravensbrück concentration camp. Her most famous book, The Hiding Place, is a biography that recounts the story of her family’s efforts and how she found and shared hope in God while she was imprisoned at the concentration camp.

The Hiding Place is a must-read for all Christ-followers. There is also a movie.
