"what an incredible story! so challenging! I never cease to be amazed by people who literally give up everything for the sake of gaining a hearing with someone who had formerly been so completely unlike them. I was half ready to pack my bags and move to Lincoln Park in downtown Long Beach!"

— AudioFile" This book was very interesting. Corrie ten Boom told little spiritual experiences she had after World War II as she traveled the world speaking to people about God. I liked the way she viewed life and taught those around her about God's love for them. It was a nice read. "
