Stumbled on this at You Tube, a very nice presentation of the story of Corrie Ten Boom, the Dutch woman whose family hid Jews from the Nazis during WWII, were betrayed and spend years in concentration camps where her father and sister died. She escaped by a "fluke" which was the hand of God, and spent her last years traveling and talking about her experiences and the love of Christ which sustained her through all of it. The sort of story that reminds me what a weak useless Christian I am.

In the book that was written about her experiences she recounts a couple of miracles which for some reason are left out of this film, perhaps just a lack of time since others are included so it isn't a bias against the supernatural. But I miss the ones in the book: her vision or dream of her family being taken away in a truck, which she had some time before that actual experience occurred when they were arrested; the small bottle of medicine that never ran out in the baracks, that she shared with all the other inmates.
