Podcast appearances and mentions of Corrie ten Boom

During World War II, Corrie ten Boom and her family risked everything to hide Jewish men and women from Nazi persecution—creating a secret refuge above her father's watch shop. Eventually, most of the family was arrested and sent to a concentration camp, where Corrie endured brutal conditions and heartbreaking loss, including the death of her beloved sister. In this episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef highlights how Corrie wrestled with the same question many believers face in suffering: Has God forgotten me? Yet in the darkness of her cell, Corrie discovered something astonishing—her fellowship with Jesus became closer than ever. Though imprisoned, she could honestly say she was free. Then, in a stunning turn, Corrie was released just one day before her scheduled execution—an unmistakable reminder that outcomes may vary, but God never abandons His children. As you walk through trials, this devotional anchors your heart in Paul's perspective: even when outwardly we are wasting away, inwardly God is renewing us day by day—and our momentary troubles are producing an eternal weight of glory (2 Corinthians 4:16–17). Prayer: Lord, I know Your love for me drives the darkness of this world away. I know that You will never leave me! Thank You. Help me to find comfort in this Truth, no matter how dark the situation may be. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “[E]ven the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you” (Psalm 139:12). Learn more in Dr. Michael A.

How Going Broke Made Me Rich A while back, I lost everything. Not "everything" the way people say it after a rough quarter. I mean I opened my banking app one day and saw a number with no digits in front of the decimal. Zero. The kind of zero that makes you sit very still for a minute. I'd been earning a million dollars a year. And then I wasn't earning anything at all. Here's the strange part, and it's the reason for this post and the episode it goes with: losing it might be the best thing that ever happened to me. If you've ever been afraid of losing what you've built — or you're in the middle of losing it right now — stay with me. "The recent unpleasantness" I've started calling it that, with a little wink, "the recent unpleasantness" (what's that movie? Anyone know?). It began with Parkinson's. Then the pandemic, which was not a gentle season for anyone running a business. Then shoulder surgery. Then brain surgery — and I want you to notice I just dropped "brain surgery" in next to "shoulder surgery" like I was listing errands. Add a few business decisions I'd love to have back, some personal ones I'd file in the same drawer, medical bills that arrived looking like phone numbers, and overhead that had grown to the size of a small kingdom. Underneath all of it, quietly, a crisis of faith. Not a wobble. A genuine dark night of the soul, the kind St. John of the Cross wrote about, where God seems to have left the room and shut the door, and you stand in the dark wondering if any of it was ever real. At the bottom of it, I declared bankruptcy. I'm not telling you this to perform my suffering. I'm not complaining. We're rebuilding, and I'm a new man — by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and I mean that as plainly as I can say it. So here's the question I had to ask myself. When I say going broke made me rich, is that just a clever line? A copywriter's sleight of hand? Or can a man say a thing like that and be telling the truth? It's true. Here's how. What was actually load-bearing When you get stripped all the way down, you find out what was holding the house up. I'd built a life with a lot of stuff in it. Income. Status. A reputation in my corner of the marketing world. The comfort of knowing the bills were handled and then some. None of that is wrong. I'm not here to tell you money is the problem and poverty is the cure — that's a sermon people preach when they've never actually been broke, and it's nonsense. What happened was simpler. Everything that wasn't essential got taken away, and I was left holding only what was. And the list of things that are truly essential turns out to be far shorter than the list of things I'd convinced myself I couldn't live without. Corrie Ten Boom said it better than I can: you don't learn that Jesus is all you need until the day He's all you have. I used to read that as a needlepoint-pillow kind of line. Then I lived it, and it stopped being a pillow and became the floor I was standing on. Because when you've got nothing left but God, you find out fast whether God is enough. He is. Not because I read it somewhere — because I tested it against the wall, with nothing to fall back on, and it held. What grew in the low place I spent a lot of that season on my knees. I mean that literally, not as a figure of speech. Some mornings I was flat on my face on the floor, talking to God. Sometimes not even talking. Just there. Out of words, out of plans, out of the energy it takes to keep pretending you've got it handled. And in that low place, things grew that had never had room before. Real humility — the kind that comes from running out of options and realizing you were never as in control as you thought. A habit of seeking God's will before a decision instead of after, when I just needed Him to bless what I'd already chosen. A patience I did not previously possess; ask anyone who knew me in the old days. I became a better husband, a better parent, a better friend, a better follower of Jesus. Not better than you, or anybody — better than the man I used to be. That's the only fair comparison there is. And the new one is a better creature. A reborn one. That's not a marketing claim. It's a report from the field. A different kind of builder I'm rebuilding the business now, with a few good people helping me, and it's going well. But it's going well in a completely different way. Before, I built fast and big. I added overhead like it was a hobby. If something looked like it might work, I threw money and people at it and sorted the details later. This time it's slow, methodical, almost annoyingly careful. Not because I've gotten timid — because I've become a different kind of business person. The fast-and-big version of me was running on a need to prove something, to be impressive, to outrun a fear I couldn't have named at the time. That guy got retired during the unpleasantness, and the fellow who replaced him builds differently. Going back through my old courses and trainings as part of the rebuild, I found most of it was sound. Well-built. Stuff I can stand behind. I'll say that carefully, because there's a version of it that's just bragging in modest clothing. I'm not proud of the work. I'm pleased by it — and there's a difference. Proud takes credit and puffs up. Pleased just looks at the thing honestly and notices the foundation's still square. The shortcut Here's where I land the plane. Some of us are slow students. I'll put myself first in that line. Apparently I'm the kind of student who needs the painful version of the lesson — going broke financially, physically, spiritually, getting taken all the way down to the studs before I'll finally surrender to God's will. That's how I learned it. The hard way. The expensive way. It doesn't have to be that way for you. You could skip all of it and go straight to the mercy seat. Straight to surrender and humility and trust, and find the freedom there before the tragedy ever shows up. The lesson is available without the tuition I paid. I had to lose everything to learn God was enough. You could simply decide He's enough today — on a perfectly ordinary Tuesday, business intact, bank balance healthy, nothing dramatic happening at all. Surrender now, while it's a choice, instead of later, when it's the only option left. That's the shortcut, and it's a real one. So if everything's going fine and you've been holding God at arm's length because you don't feel like you need Him at the moment — go to your knees anyway. Not out of crisis. Out of wisdom. Get there the easy way. And if you're in the dark right now, door shut, God seemingly gone from the room, hear this from somebody who's been exactly where you are: He hasn't left. It feels like it. I know. But the floor is still there in the dark. I found it. It held me. It'll hold you. Going broke made me rich. I mean that every way it can be meant. I lost the money and found the things money was always a substitute for, and knowing what I know now, I wouldn't trade back. This is the written companion to this week's episode of The Ray Edwards Show. If it landed, go listen to the full conversation — and then go do the thing only you can do. And remember whose you are.

2020524 6PMp JB Called to forgiveness. Reading: Luke 17:1-11. Corrie Ten Boom, author of the book, “The Hiding Place” told of an instance when she was confronted with the need for forgiveness in her heart, for prison officer from the prison camp she and members of her family were held in during the second world war.  “Forgiveness is about the greatness of your king, not about the greatness of your faith.”  In the church, we need each other ... to watch out for one another, to rebuke, to repent, and to forgive. In looking to the cross where Jesus died to gain our forgiveness, we can see the greatness of the grace with which we are forgiven, and how we are called upon to forgive one another. Speaker: John Batten. 

Pastor Bob's message profoundly addresses forgiveness, bitterness, and the spiritual impact of harboring offense. He stresses the necessity of guarding the heart, referencing Proverbs 4:23, and illustrates how bitterness and unforgiveness create barriers between us and God's presence. Through powerful personal testimonies, including John Bevere's story and Corrie Ten Boom's remarkable forgiveness of a former Nazi, he demonstrates how offense imprisons the soul, damages relationships, dulls spiritual sensitivity, and robs joy. The sermon highlights that bitterness, while seemingly protective, ultimately poisons and imprisons, whereas forgiveness, though challenging, ushers in freedom and healing.Pastor Bob offers practical guidance for overcoming offense: first, identifying bitterness in the heart; second, forgiving as an act of faith even when emotions resist; third, guarding one's thoughts; and finally, actively pursuing peace with others. Using the vivid analogy of carrying a sack of potatoes to symbolize the heavy burden of offenses, he shows how unforgiveness disrupts worship, prayer, and daily life.Importantly, he clarifies that forgiveness does not mean excusing wrongdoings or blindly trusting those who hurt us, but releasing the burden so the Holy Spirit can restore joy and intimacy with God. The message calls believers to embody an “unoffended life,” reflecting Christ's limitless forgiveness, and to proactively reconcile conflicts, especially within families and the church, to live in spiritual wholeness and freedom.

When the world collapses into chaos, how should the Christian respond? Is it possible to find a hiding place that serves as a spiritual fortress when everything else is shaken? In the face of increasing evil, how do we move beyond simple survival to a life of overflowing obedience?In this episode, Tracie and Abigail explore the life of Corrie ten Boom and the biblical mandate to give "so much the more." From the secret room in Haarlem to the horrors of Ravensbrück, Corrie's life demonstrates that the answer to our season's question, When War Comes, is not to retreat. Instead, we find the call of the Christian is to do more—to keep serving, keep loving, and keep standing for Christ until the very end.If you know of someone who can be helped by listening to the Abundant Living Podcast, please share this episode with them.

What if the very secrets we guard most closely are actually the chains that bind us? In this powerful message, Pastor Pencil delves into James 5:13-16 to expose how hidden shame becomes a prison of our own making. Through compelling examples—from King David's physical anguish over unconfessed sin to Corrie Ten Boom's transformative story of forgiveness—he illustrates how secrets thrive in darkness but lose their power when brought into God's light. Pastor Pencil draws a crucial distinction between guilt (which God uses to lead us to repentance) and shame (Satan's tool to keep us hiding), emphasizing that God's perfect love drives out fear. He challenges the cultural narrative that keeping secrets equals strength, instead revealing confession as a powerful offensive weapon in spiritual warfare. The message culminates in a stirring call to action for the congregation to stop managing darkness alone and step into the freedom of God's grace through confession and community. This teaching aligns with City United's current initiative to help people break free from toxic lies and embrace authentic faith relationships.

A new MP3 sermon from Alpha and Omega Ministries is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Corrie Ten Boom Attacked, Scholarship Under the Lordship of Christ Subtitle: The Dividing Line 2026 Speaker: Dr. James White Broadcaster: Alpha and Omega Ministries Event: Podcast Date: 3/19/2026 Length: 68 min.

Started off with a disgusting post from Michael Spangler attacking Corrie Ten Boom and the book, The Hiding Place. Just astonishing how Jew hatred rots the brain. Then we moved on to Dan McClellan's response piece, but spent most of today just discussing doing scholarship under the Lordship of Christ, and how this determines how you are going to interact with the text of Scripture. We will have to continue that response next week, hopefully from the Mobile Command Center!

Listen along as we near the finish of our journey through Acts. Notes//Quotes: Mike reading - Acts 28:1-16 “No crowd gathers for Paul's preaching, and no description illumines the situation of those believers who journey out to meet him. That minimalistic assessment should not obscure the importance of Paul's thanksgiving in v. 15. The journey all along has less to do with what will happen in Rome than with the God who directs Paul to that place.” - Beverly Gaventa Map Picture (attached) “God is always trying to give good things to us, but our hands are too full to receive them.” - Augustine, City of God Col 1:19-20 “There are no ‘if's' in God's world. And no places that are safer than other places. The center of His will is our only safety – let us pray that we may always know it!” Corrie Ten Boom

In 1944, fifty-two year old Dutch watchmaker Corrie ten Boom was arrested by the Gestapo for sheltering Jews. After surviving Ravensbruck and losing most of her family, she embarked on a three decade ministry, sharing a message of love, forgiveness, and hope. Who was Corrie ten Boom and how did she become the kind of person who builds secret rooms, undermines Nazis, survives a concentration camp, and then goes on to share the gospel with refugees, prisoners, and the Nazis who killed her family?

Kencan Dengan Tuhan - Sabtu, 7 Maret 2026Bacaan: "Karena jikalau kamu mengampuni kesalahan orang, Bapamu yang di sorga akan mengampuni kamu juga." (Matius 6:14)Renungan: Pengampunan sering kali merupakan sesuatu yang sangat sulit dilakukan. Kita lebih suka melakukan balas dendam kepada orang-orang yang menyakiti kita. Karena hal itu akan lebih memuaskan kedagingan kita yang selalu cenderung untuk menuntut balas. Mata ganti mata, gigi ganti gigi. Namun Tuhan Yesus mengajarkan hal yang lain kepada kita semua, Dia justru mengajar kita agar tidak membalas dendam, tetapi mengampuni setiap orang yang bersalah kepada kita, seperti Dia juga telah mengampuni kita. Corrie Ten Boom, juga mempunyai pengalaman dalam soal mengampuni. Ia dengan mata kepala sendiri menyaksikan kedua orang tuanya disiksa dan dibunuh oleh seorang tentara Nazi. la sendiri juga mengalami siksaan yang luar biasa sehingga hatinya dipenuhi kebencian terhadap orang itu. Setelah menjalani masa-masa penyiksaan yang berat di kamp konsentrasi, Corrie akhirnya dibebaskan. la pun mulai bersaksi dan memberitakan Injil. Suatu kali ketika memimpin Kebangunan Rohani, ia melihat pembunuh orang tuanya itu, sekaligus orang yang pernah menyiksanya ikut berdiri dan mengambil keputusan menerima Yesus sebagai Juruselamat. Saat itu hatinya penuh dengan pergumulan luar biasa antara kebencian dan keinginan mengampuni. Dalam ketidakberdayaan, ia berseru meminta pertolongan Tuhan. Tuhan menjamah dan mengalirkan kasih-Nya kepada Corrie, sehingga Corrie mampu memandang orang itu dengan cara pandang yang baru. la mendekati orang itu dan memperkenalkan dirinya. la berkata bahwa ia sudah mengampuni orang itu karena Tuhan telah mengampuninya. Orang itu terkejut dan dengan air mata bercucuran ia meminta ampun atas dosa-dosanya. Corrie mengalami pemulihan yang luar biasa. Ia merasakan beban kebencian yang menindihnya selama ini terlepas. Orang itu pun merasakan sukacita yang besar karena dosa-dosanya diampuni Allah dan Corrie. Jika kita merasa tidak mampu mengampuni, Tuhan selalu siap untuk menolong asalkan kita mau berseru kepada-Nya. Jadi, mari memohon pertolongan Tuhan. Mintalah Dia untuk mengalirkan kasih-Nya kepada kita, karena dengan kemampuan sendiri, kita tidak akan dapat mengampuni orang yang bersalah kepada kita. Hanya dengan pertolongan Tuhan, kita pasti akan dimampukan untuk memberikan pengampunan. Tuhan Yesus memberkati. Doa:Tuhan Yesus, ajarilah aku untuk mau mengampuni seseorang yang pernah menyakiti hatiku. Jangan biarkan rasa dendam menguasaiku sehingga aku kehilangan Damai sejahtera-Mu. Amin. (Dod).

Corrie Ten Boom shares her personal experiences of preaching the gospel and casting out demons. She recounts a time when she was in a concentration camp and witnessed the cruelty and hatred in people's hearts. Despite the fear and nervousness of the prisoners, Corey encouraged them to have faith in the power of the gospel and the authority given to believers by Jesus. She emphasizes the importance of being filled with the Holy Spirit and relying on Jesus to do the work through us. Corey references Mark 16 in the Bible, where Jesus commands his disciples to go and proclaim the gospel, drive out evil spirits, speak in new tongues, and lay hands on the sick for healing. She concludes by urging listeners to share these powerful messages with others.

What happens when obeying one of God's commands seems to require breaking another? Dave Rich continues this examination of impossible moral conflict by applying three major Christian ethical frameworks to two of history's most challenging scenarios: Rahab's lie to protect the Israelite spies, and the ten Boom family's decision to deceive Nazi soldiers to save Jewish lives.Conflicting absolutism says Rahab did the right thing — but still sinned and needed forgiveness. Graded absolutism says her higher duty to protect life suspended the lesser duty to tell the truth, and she bears no guilt. Non-conflicting absolutism says the conflict was never real to begin with — either she sinned by choosing to lie, or what she did wasn't truly a lie by proper definition.Each view carries genuine strengths and serious dangers. Can absolutes remain absolute if they can be set aside? Can redefining sin become a way to excuse it? And when Nazis are at the door, what does faithfulness to God actually look like?Rich closes with a vital reminder: hard cases make bad law. The goal of Christian ethics isn't finding the perfect framework for the rare impossible moment — it's a life of steady obedience, pursued with love for Christ and a well-formed conscience grounded in Scripture. ★ Support this podcast ★

Is there someone in your life whose forgiveness you need? Legendary cowboy actor Roy Rogers said something profound. He said that sometimes it hurts to do the right thing, but afterwards, you'll feel better. When it comes to forgiveness, this certainly applies to choosing to forgive someone who has wronged you. But have you considered that it can be even tougher to ask for someone's forgiveness? Humans hate to fail, and most of us hate looking foolish. It hurts. Maybe you've hurt someone recently, or maybe the hurt happened a long time ago, and it just festers.Luke 6:37 says, “Do not judge and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven.” Brenda Blakely knows all about this. The daughter of an alcoholic father, she resented both her parents for years. One day though, she realized that she had internalized her anger so much that it in turn targeted her mother. Brenda called her one day and began pouring out her heart, acknowledging that her bitterness had caused her to be difficult growing up. It was a painful revelation. Yet at the end of the call, her mother's heart was moved. She said to Brenda, “I forgive you, and please forgive me.”Choosing to ask for forgiveness might literally be the hardest thing you ever have to do. Maybe you're not there yet, but keep your mind and your heart open. The end result will be well worth the wait, and think of the person whose forgiveness you're asking. Remember the words of Corrie Ten Boom, who nearly died in a Nazi extermination camp. She said this, “To forgive is to set the prisoner free and to realize that the prisoner was me.” Let's pray. Father, our sinful human nature rebels against humbling ourselves and asking for forgiveness, but give us this practical thing, Father, to be objective and really examine ourselves to see if we've hurt someone and never made amends. Help us move towards reconciliation. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

Special guest Maureen Carrott recalls the impression the book The Hiding Place had on her as a 13-year-old girl. Corrie Ten Boom, the author, was imprisoned in a concentration camp alongside her sister Betsie. Betsie suggested they give thanks to God for the fleas that nipped painfully at their skin. Other stories, like the biblical story of Joseph, also instilled within Maureen that gratitude should transcend circumstances. As this episode is airing, wife, mother, grandmother, friend to many around the world, and missionary Maureen went home to be with the Lord on December 16, 2025. She began Crown of Beauty ministry with Sue Corl in 2005 in East Asia. They served together for seven years, and then several mission trips afterward. From the beginning, Maureen insisted that we offer one-on-one or small group prayer counseling at each conference. Most say that this is the highlight of each conference. Her honest, Christ-centered, vulnerable, joyful spirit and love for everyone we served brought healing to women wherever she went. Sue could not have pioneered this ministry without her. As Sue's best friend, their ministry to the Chinese, Thai Karen, Lebanese, English, and Ugandan women was truly one of the most rewarding and enjoyable experiences of their lives. Though Maureen left us earlier than any of us would have wanted, we know that her infectious laughter, deep worship and love of God, and deep connection with people is blessing those who have gone before us! Ephesians 5:20: "Always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ". This episode is dedicated to the memory of Maureen Carrott. SUPPORT His Heartbeat through Crown of Beauty Internationalhttps://www.crownofbeautyinternational.com/donateCONNECT with His Heartbeat and Crown of Beauty InternationalWebsite// Facebook//InstagramEmail: crownofbeautyinternational@gmail.comConnect with Sue Corl's Instagram//Facebook// WebsitePurchase Sue's Transformational Bible Studies and Devotionals on Amazon!Sue Corl's best-selling books: Crown of Beauty Bible Study, Broken But UndefeatedCrown of Beauty International: EMPOWERING WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD WITH GOD'S TRUTH!

As we close on the Christmas season, and head toward the new year, many of us tend to take some time to be reflective.  We might make some resolutions that don't usually last, but for the most part, the end of December is time to slow down from the presents and rush of the holidays.  On today's episode of the Missing Chapter, we are going to detail one of the most fascinating stories of one of the bravest and most courageous individuals we have had the privilege of discussing.  And if her story doesn't inspire you to look deeper into yourself and reflect, well, then I think you might need more coffee.  In fact, that reminds me, I need to top off my Missing Chapter mug before we begin.  Welcome to the Missing Chapter, everyone, let's get started.Want some Missing Chapter merchandise?

In this Advent message, Best Gift Ever, we explore the theme of love through the promise of Emmanuel—God with us. Tracing the prophecy of Isaiah and its fulfillment in the birth of Jesus, this episode reminds us that God doesn’t remove every fear or fix every circumstance, but He faithfully enters into them with us. From a frightened king to a confused Joseph to a suffering prisoner in a concentration camp, we’re invited to receive the greatest gift of all—not comfort or control, but God’s presence.

We explore Advent as "WAIT Training" - celebrating Jesus' first coming while anticipating His return. Living between two gardens, in the "now and not yet," presents unique challenges, especially when joy feels just out of reach.Joy is more than a feeling. Kay Warren defines it as "the settled assurance that God is in control of all the details of my life, the quiet confidence that ultimately everything is going to be all right, and the determined choice to praise God in all things."Scripture reveals Jesus as a man of great joy. People wanted Him at their parties. Children ran to Him. He came "feasting and drinking," fully engaged with life. We find joy by staying close to Jesus and abiding in His ways (John 15:10-11).We must also choose joy. James 1:2-4 calls us to "consider it pure joy" when facing trials. First Thessalonians 5:16-18 exhorts us to "rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances." Corrie Ten Boom gave thanks for fleas in a concentration camp, discovering later that those very fleas kept guards away, allowing Bible readings to continue.Sometimes we avoid joy because of its vulnerability. Nicole Zasowski reminds us that protecting ourselves through pessimism or cynicism doesn't remove the sting of potential loss - it only robs us of hope and delight. Gratitude spoken out loud helps us tolerate joy's vulnerability.We don't get exemptions from suffering, but God's grace meets us in every circumstance. As we practice this WAIT training, remember: our faithfulness in waiting matters less than God's faithfulness in coming. His Spirit offers joy right now, and our joy will be complete when Jesus returns.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

How can gratitude transform your perspective—even in the hardest times?In this Thanksgiving message, Jim Revelle, a chaplain serving Nussbaum Transportation through Corporate Chaplains of America, shares powerful stories of faith, resilience, and thankfulness.Jim begins with a personal account of his father's World War II experience—being rescued from a sinking ship after a kamikaze attack—and draws parallels to spiritual rescue and salvation. He also discusses his own practice of keeping a gratitude journal, filled with hundreds of daily entries throughout the year.The centerpiece of his message is the inspiring story of Betsy and Corrie Ten Boom, Dutch sisters imprisoned in Ravensbrück concentration camp for hiding Jews during WWII. Despite horrific conditions, including flea infestations in their barracks, the sisters chose to give thanks for everything—even the fleas. That gratitude ultimately protected their secret Bible study meetings from guard interference.Jim encourages listeners to find gratitude even in difficult circumstances, reminding us that God can work through challenges for greater purposes. He concludes with a heartfelt prayer for the Nussbaum community, emphasizing divine mercy, grace, and care for each individual.Press play to hear this uplifting message and discover how gratitude can change your life!FROM TODAY'S PODCAST• Guest: Jim Revelle, Corporate Chaplains of AmericaLET'S CONNECT• Visit us online at terminalexchange.org • Follow The Terminal Exchange on social media! • Facebook• Instagram • XABOUT NUSSBAUM Employee-Owned, Purpose Driven | Nussbaum is an industry-leader in over-the-road freight transportation.

Presented by Jackson Williams

Presented by Julie Busteed I've been looking at what it takes to build healthy relationships. And I've saved the best for last: forgiveness. This verse in Matthew always catches me short. For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins (Matthew 6:14-15). I need to take to heart this command! Relationships are living, growing things because they involve people who are growing and changing. And because you are human, there will be times when words are spoken or actions are taken that hurt someone in the relationship. You and I need to forgive others and also ask for forgiveness—things that are not easy to do, except through the power of the Holy Spirit. But wait—there's more! Jesus said we should love our enemies. I look at Jesus' example of laying down his life for you and me. When he was on the cross, suffering, he forgave those who crucified him. Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do (Luke 23:34). That's the ultimate in forgiving your enemies. It really seems quite impossible, doesn't it? Jesus was fully God and fully man. But I don't think that excuses you or me to forgive even our enemies. Corrie Ten Boom and her family helped many Jewish people escape the Nazi's in WW2. As a result, she was arrested and sent to Ravensbrück concentration camp. She survived and wrote books and spoke about her experience. Corrie recounts the following as she was speaking about forgiveness at a church in Munich in 1947: Afterward, I saw him—a man moving toward me through the crowd. I recognized him instantly: a former guard from Ravensbrück, the concentration camp where my sister Betsie and I had been imprisoned for hiding Jews. He approached me, now dressed in civilian clothes, and said, “A fine message, Fräulein. How good it is to know that all our sins are at the bottom of the sea.” Then he extended his hand. “I was a guard at Ravensbrück. I've become a Christian, and I know God has forgiven me, but I would like to hear it from you. Will you forgive me?” I stood frozen, remembering Betsie's suffering and death. Forgive him? I could not. Yet I knew Jesus' words: “If you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive yours.” Forgiveness is not a feeling—it's an act of the will. So, I prayed silently, “Jesus, help me. I can lift my hand; You supply the feeling.” Mechanically, I reached out—and as I did, a current seemed to pass from my shoulder to our joined hands. A warmth filled my heart. “I forgive you, brother,” I said, “with all my heart.” In that moment, I felt God's love more deeply than ever before.[1] May you and I be obedient and lift our hands and trust God to fill us with his love. --- [1] Corrie Ten Boom, Sherrill, E., & Sherrill, J. L. (2008). The hiding place. Chosen Books.

Corrie Ten Boom's story shows the supernatural power of forgiveness. Even after losing her family in Nazi concentration camps, she chose to release bitterness and extend grace to her captors. This message will challenge you to let go of offense and step into the freedom only Jesus gives.

When we practice hospitality like God directs us to, He can change the course of history. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses how we can shape culture by opening our homes and being receptive to God's instruction. He shares from the history of the early Church and how apostles like Peter and Paul practiced hospitality in ways that furthered God's mission in the earth. Pastor Allen also relates the history of World Outreach, starting with his own family's willingness to open their home to gathering, and he tells stories from the life of Corrie ten Boom, whose family's hospitality saved over 800 lives during World War II. It's rarely convenient to share your kitchen table with the community, but by practicing hospitality, we join with God in extending His Kingdom.

Episode 87 Laura Smith is a writer, speaker and mom to four young adults. She is from the charming, small college town of Oxford, not England, but Ohio! These are the kinds of random facts I love getting to know about my guests. Even more, I loved learning about Laura's newest book, Brave Women, Mighty God: 30 Things You Can Do. I've been a Christian my whole life, since I was 3 years old, but I loved learning about some of these women that I have never heard of. And then to think about the women, whose stories I know, in new ways and to learn from them. It's so important for us to know and remember that God created us as women with intention and purpose. We have a reason for being, and we matter in His plans for us and His plans for eternity.  Talking about these stories, and some in particular, with Laura brought me to tears. I felt such a deep connection to many of them and realized I needed the reminder that I am God's daughter, and I am beloved. This conversation was so encouraging, and I am sure you're going to love it just like me!  Resources mentioned in this episode: Books about Godly, inspiring women that Greta has loved reading: Corrie Ten Boom, Amy Carmichael, Betty Green, Darlene Deibler Rose, Courageous World Changers: 50 True Stories of Daring Women of God (great for kids!) Find Laura: Find Laura's website here Find Laura's book here Find Laura on Instagram here  The Greta Eskridge Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

Colossians 3:1–3 (NIV)Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.The Bible Knowledge Commentary says that “hidden” implies both concealment and safety, invisibility and security.Paul, who wrote the book of Colossians, understood this deeply. Even while he was concealed in prison, he knew he was safe and secure with Christ.In this episode, we'll look at what it means for our lives to be hidden in Him—through the story of Corrie Ten Boom, the example of Jesus, and the secret place described in the Psalms. I'll close with the song “In Him I Will Trust,” inspired by Psalm 91:He who dwells in the secret place of the Most HighShall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.I will say of the LORD, “He is my refuge and my fortress;My God, in Him I will trust.”If you would like to support this podcast with a monthly or one-time gift, thank you!⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.sherriyoungward.com/support⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠To find out about upcoming gatherings and new projects, please join my email list at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.sherriyoungward.com

It's not always popular to stand for the truth, but are we willing to be voices for the Jewish people and the nation of Israel anyway? In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the heritage of faith we inherited from the Jewish people. God has not and will not reject them, and it's from them we receive our Messiah, Jesus. As World Outreach Church joins with the International Fellowship of Christians and Jews to commemorate the October 7 attacks, Pastor Allen shares practical steps we can take to show support and mercy for Israel. God is shaking the earth, and we want to move with Him.

We don't have the power to transform the culture we live in, but we do have the power to be obedient to God. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses Satan's responses to God's movements. In the Old Testament book of 2 Chronicles, we read about King Hezekiah's obedience to the Lord, which brought about both a renewal of his culture and pushback, hardship, and threats from the enemy. However, as Pastor Allen shows, God is always faithful to intervene when we choose His ways. Like King Hezekiah, we will experience backlash when we live for Jesus—but if we will choose obedience to God in an unrelenting, courageous way, God will do what we can't: transform our culture.

Corrie Ten Boom shares how she could go through humiliation and suffering at the concentration camp, because Jesus did it for her.

In this episode, Jennifer Kelley shares the story of Corrie ten Boom and what Christians today can learn from her life. Jennifer T. Kelley taught high school for fifteen years. She is also the author of 'The Story of Corrie ten Boom: The Watchmaker Who Forgave Her Enemies' from Crossway. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Read the full transcript of this episode.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ❖ Listen to “The Life and Legacy of Elisabeth Elliot” with Lucy S.

It's a several-part series. Destination: Haarlem, Netherlands. It's a Dutch city that's often overshadowed by Amsterdam, but has just as much charm—and far fewer crowds. I'm talking about Haarlem, Netherlands. Haarlem is only 15 minutes by train from Amsterdam, making it an easy and quiet alternative for solo travelers over 50. What you'll love is its slower pace, historic streets, and safe, flat, walkable layout, making it ideal for mobility challenges with a big square. Haarlem's Train station is brick and historic. A block away, you will find double-decker bike racks. That is genius and a growing trend.

Www.noord-hollandsarchief.nl)  They had two exhibitions: "Printers of Value," a historic printing lab, I learned about Laurens Janzoon Coster, the purported inventor of the printing press.  https://noord-hollandsarchief.nl/english/family-history At the heart of Haarlem is the Grote Markt, the main square. Here, you'll find St. Bavo's Cathedral, famous for its massive organ, once played by Mozart and Handel.  And a few steps away from the Grote (gro-ta) Markt (marked), find the Corrie Ten Boom museum in Haarlem. This former home has now been converted into a museum, about which I've heard for four years. I've been hoping to get here, and God is making that possible, so I went in and met the people in the store.  I also met a family from Norway who wanted to tour today, and they were pleased that I told them there would be a possibility for them to see the tour. For those with mobility issues, please visit the virtual tour, as the house is relatively small and not wheelchair accessible.

Mike Harrelson - September 7th 2025 Every false hope will sink, but Jesus—the true King—never will. This week, Mike continues our King and His Kingdom series in Matthew 17:22–23, where Jesus again predicts His betrayal, death, and resurrection. Just as the Titanic was thought to be “unsinkable,” the disciples' misplaced expectations of a political Messiah blinded them to God's true plan. Mike shares how our own false expectations can leave us disillusioned, but the cross confronts and reshapes them with truth. Through the Spirit, God reframes our hopes, reminding us that Jesus alone is trustworthy, holy, and unsinkable.

You've probably heard the saying, "They who will not learn from history are doomed to repeat it." That's something to ponder as you listen to this presentation; a recording of a VCY rally in Southeast Wisconsin this past April that wasn't your typical one. With its historical narrative, it featured a live actress retelling a story that is important for people to hear and understand today. The name Corrie Ten Boom is well known in Christian circles. She's best known for her bravery and Christian faith during the holocaust as she helped many Jewish people escape Nazi persecution. Her efforts to help the Jews came at a price as she also suffered physically, emotionally and spiritually.
