About this listen

Corrie ten Boom was a Dutch watchmaker who became a heroine of the Resistance, a survivor of Hitler's concentration camps, and one of the most remarkable evangelists of the 20h century.

In World War II she and her family risked their lives to help Jews and underground workers escape from the Nazi's, and for their work they were tested in the infamous Nazi death camps. Only Corrie among her whole family survived to tell the story of how faith ultimately triumphs over evil. Here is the riveting account of how Corrie and her family were able to save many of God's chosen people.

For 35 years millions have seen that there is no pit so deep that God's love in not deeper still. Now The Hiding Place, repackaged for a new generation of readers, continue to declare that God's love will overcome, heal and restore.

Excelent reading of a book I loved many years ago

I read, The Hiding Place, as a teenager and was really enthralled by Corrie's story. When I saw it on Audible I wondered if it would be read as I read it, It was. It really brought the horror of the Concentration camps and the absolute faith of the sisters to life.

As a grown up it has challenged me to step up my faith and to accept that God is in control, even when it seems I am so far away.

Fully recommend this.

An astonishing account of a family united by God’s overwhelming love in desperate conditions. A true and honest account. It’s a life changing book and makes you feel grateful just to be alive.

Beautifully narrated, very moving story

What did you like most about The Hiding Place?

The narration. Bernadette Dunne's performance was perfect, with her lilting and gentle voice.

What did you like best about this story?

The testimony to God's strength and Corrie ten Boom and her family's faith. The whole story is beautifully described with some lovely turns of phrase.

What does Bernadette Dunne bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

I really felt that Bernadette Dunne WAS Corrie ten Boom, I felt as if I was listening to her own story.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Many. The descriptions of the living conditions in Ravensbruck were very vivid. The descriptions of her family life were very moving.

Any additional comments?

This was an utter delight to listen to due to Bernadette Dunne's lilting narration. In spite of the story being ultimately harrowing, it is suffused with hope.

A Favourite Book

I first read The Hiding Place back in the 70's. It's one of those books that you can read over and over. I chose it as an Audible book to listen for a change, to this amazing book. If you are not familiar with this true story, I highly recommend reading or listening to it.

A tale of tragedy, terror & trusting in God.

What a great book! Hearing the tale of the Ten Booms is encouraging and inspiring. Jesus is the light in the darkness and the darkness cannot overcome the light. It didn't get much darker than Nazi-occupied Europe but Corrie and her family were strengthened by God and used for tremendous good in awful circumstances. This book is a wonderful example of what God can achieve through us if we invite him in!

A definite must read book.

Bernadette Dunne reads this book very well. Sadly it is not a story but very true. I first read this book 40 years ago and it is lovely to have it read to me. The story is wonderful yet harrowing. Showing true faith in God and seeing His hand in their lives. 40 years ago I thought ...this would never happen again, we wouldn't allow it, yet it brought home just how many Christians are being persecuted today. God's people always being attacked by Satan. It shows us how to live and that God will bring us through everything if we only trust Him. The reader takes us on a journey and makes you feel you are actually there. A definite must read book.
