In My Father's House
In My Father's House: The Years Before The Hiding Place | Corrie ten Boom, Carole C. Carlson
2 posts | 1 read | 2 to read
Concentrating upon her family and their life in Holland before the war, this inspiring and revealing book describes in moving detail living above the family watch shop in Harlem and her memories of the family together before their lives changed for ever with the advent of war and persecution. Corrie believed that this life helped prepare them for carrying out God's work later and gave her the strength to survive the war, brutal hardship and persecution and begin her worldwide ministry. This much loved book is being re-issued in B format with a contemporary cover.

In My Father‘s House was a chance op-shop find. I was attracted to it because the cover illustrations reminded me of the warehouse where the Frank family sought refuge. I loved this book, Connie has such a beautiful voice and her stories of growing up in pre-war Holland are evocative. There‘s a lot about her faith, it‘s uplifting and inspiring. Yesterday I chanced upon another of her books, about her father. I still want to read The Hiding Place.
