Corrie Ten Boom was a Dutch Christian watchmaker and writer who, along with her family, helped many Jews escape the Nazi Holocaust during World War II by hiding them in their home. Arrested in 1944, she survived imprisonment in the Ravensbrück concentration camp. Her deep faith and acts of courage made her a symbol of resistance and forgiveness. After the war, she traveled the world speaking about her experiences and the power of forgiveness, even forgiving her former captors. Her story is best known through her book The Hiding Place, which has inspired millions with its message of hope and faith.
