When Corrie ten Boom was in her late forties, she became part of the underground Christian resistance movement during World War II when Hitlers army occupied Holland. The account of Corries experience during this time period can be read in her best-selling book, The Hiding Place. In My Fathers House is the story of Corries life with her mother, father, and the rest of the family before they began hiding Jewish people in their home. This book is a testament to how God prepared one family through a fathers faithfulness to his Savior and the Word of God for the most sacrificial service a family could do. Beginning in the years before Corrie was born, In My Fathers House details the events in the Ten Boom family.
