The Hiding Place

This book was so encouraging. Corrie and her sister went through so much and yet they maintained their Faith in God! I really like the book and will listen to it again!

This story will stay with me for the rest of my life. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to feel challenged to live with more gratitude, faith, and joy. The narration was excellent and the story was life-changing.

Corrie's story is truly amazing. I had read "The Hiding Place" three times previously but due to visual problems am now a listener. I listen to books while walking and my walk were longer than usual while listening to "The Hiding Place." The shining faith and dedication of the Ten Booms in the face of Nazi horrors will inspire all. I enjoyed this narrator better than most I've listened to so far.

Inspiring, comforting, frightening

Nollie ten Boom, Corrie's sister.

Her lovely voice. I'm dsylexic.

It made me want the walk of faith in Jesus that Corrie and her family had.

It's easier to tell the truth when it will cost you just your life. But when it could cost others theirs? Yet Jesus is supposed to be Truth. Fascinating book. I was struck with Corrie's sister Nollie. She didn't lie.

Heartwarming, educational and thrilling!

One of the most memorable moments for me is the way that Corrie was let out of the concentration camp BY "ACCIDENT!" the time when the home of the Ten Booms was invaded and the family was taken away, while the Jewish "guests" were not found, was also exciting.

No, I have not listened to other books read by Wanda McCaddon, but she does a great job. I could feel Corrie's feelings in the way she read the story.

I cried many times during the book- when Corrie's mother passes away, Times when Casper would teach a life concept to Corrie, and when Betsy dies. There were also many fun and happy times that made me laugh.

A nice book to listen to on a rainy day when feeling sorry for ones self.

My wife recommended this book to me years ago and I somehow didn't read it then. Too bad I waited so long for this treat. What a fantastic story. The faith of the people in this book is amazing and beautiful. I came away from this with so many reminders of how blessed the children of God are. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. The narrator did an excellent job. Definitely one to have in every home.

The story is so improbable it could only be true: an elderly spinster watchmaker becomes a leader in the Dutch underground of World War 2.

The richness of the characters and their deep faith in God drew me in.

The narrator's lovely accent helped transport me to Dutch Harlem. The names of people and places roll off her tongue so easily; if I was reading the book myself I'd have to stop and think about each one.

I've had to ration myself to listen to this book on my commute, but it's definitely changed my perspective about the drive. I eagerly anticipate when I can get into to the car and immerse myself in The Hiding Place. I'm more excited to get back to the book than I am to get home.

I read this book in high school....many, many years behind me now, and to listen to this book just made me rekindle that forgiveness, love and understanding of God is all in His time. When our flesh can't do it God gives us the strength to put our hand out. Corrie and her sister Betsy were extraordinary women, I loved her story, How they conquered their time in a horrible place, always going forth with HOPE and FAITH. I will re-listen to this book over and over again.

The way I could "feel" every situation the narrator painted the picture excellent.

Hard to choose

YES!

I liked the accents, and they were not difficult to understand. Helped me feel like I was there.

Cory, of course! She's was just an amazing person. So much courage!

No

Yes.

I enjoyed this very much. I'd heard many times that this was a good book, but never had time to read it. I'm thankful for Audible that I finally was able to have it read to me! I found it very educational too. The graphic descriptions made me feel like I was there witnessing everything Cory was seeing.

Looking back on her life growing up with her parents and the Tantas. The love and warmth and candor of that time was very heartwarming and relatable....I listened to the early time several times for its nostalgia.

Corrie was my favorite because she was so human and someone I could relate to......not so faith driven that she was saintly.

Her voice just lulls me...the way she spoke the name corrie was magical to my ears...I know these characters because their personalities where painted with soft strokes of vocal sounds and tones, pitches and speech patterns.

When the family had the argument because nollie's daughter couldn't lie to the Gestapo....when Corrie was chiming in with her reasoning, it sounded very life-like....

I believe this was a story of great substance and the value was realized based on the talent of the story teller....she truly made the book come to life,
