The life of Corrie Ten Boom (1892 – 1983) is an inspiration to us all.
I read her book, saw the movie and visited her home in the Netherlands, seeing first hand 'the hiding place'.
From Wiki
"Cornelia Arnolda Johanna "Corrie" ten Boom (15 April 1892 – 15 April 1983) was a Dutch watchmaker and later a writer, who worked with her father and other family members to help many Jews escape the Nazi Holocaust during World War II by hiding them in her home. They were caught and she was arrested and sent to a Nazi concentration camp (Ravensbrück concentration camp). Her most famous book, The Hiding Place, is a biography that recounts the story of her family's efforts and how ten Boom found hope while imprisoned at the concentration camp."
