Thanks everybody for the great response to my Thanksgiving perspectives article on what we can learn about giving thanks in all circumstances from the life of Corrie ten Boom. My friends over at Chosen Books saw the article and wanted to partner up for a special giveaway. Three winners will receive a Corrie ten Boom prize pack featuring the 35th anniversary edition of The Hiding Place, the young reader’s edition of The Hiding Place and Life Lessons from the Hiding Place.
“Give honor to whom honor is due.” Unfortunately the vast majority of Christians today know little or nothing of the rich heritage of men and women who “contended for the faith” that proceeded them. Biographies, like yours, are a great way to be educated and encouraged. Let’s not allow their love for the Savior and work for His glory go overlooked. The great “hall of faith” continues to grow!
Thanks, Alan. May our tribe of those who deeply appreciate and greatly benefit from historic Christian biography continue to increase as well … to the glory of Christ.
Corrie was a remarkable general of the Christian faith.
From her I have learned about humble, complete surrender to Christ, that it is never to late to start your journey with Christ and that God uses simple people to achieve His greates works. I have learned that in surrendering your daily activities to God, you can use that as a platform to bring glory to God.
Thanks for sharing these thoughts. May many others be benefited by reading Corrie’s remarkable life-story, and may Jesus be glorified.
