Review: The Hiding Place and Giveaway ($10 Amazon Giftcard)

I would like to invite you all to experience The Hiding Place (stage production) in this spectacular new global cinema event, coming to theaters on August 3 (tomorrow) & 5 only. The Hiding Place tells the heroic true story of Corrie Ten Boom and her family in the Netherlands. They risk everything (including their lives) to hide hundreds of Jewish refugees during World War II until they are discovered and as a result, they have to endure terrible consequences. The Hiding Place was beautifully adapted for the stage by A.S. Peterson, directed by Matt Logan, and filmed for cinema audiences in Nashville, Tennessee.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. It is 2 1/2 hours long but it went by quickly because I was totally absorbed into the story and performance. Brilliantly performed by the cast. Great music score, too. A simple family of watchmakers shows hospitality and offers safe shelter to multitude of persecuted Jews during the time of darkness in Europe under the ruthless tyranny of the Third Reich and Nazi regime. God shines His light through the lives of Corrie, Betsie, and Casper Ten Boom. Scripture reading and praying are seen throughout the movie. "The blacker the night around us grew, the brighter and truer and more beautiful burned the Word of God." (Corrie Ten Boom)

I highly recommend this captivating and inspiring movie. Even though I already knew the story well, I still was touched and teary. It is such an incredible story of faith, courage, hope, agape love, and forgiveness in the midst of unthinkable evil and unimaginable suffering.

"You are my Hiding Place; You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance." (Psalm 32:7)

“This is what the past is for! Every experience God gives us, every person He puts in our lives is the perfect preparation for the future that only He can see.” (Corrie Ten Boom)

“There is no pit so deep, that God's love is not deeper still.” (Betsie Ten Boom)

DVD Review and Giveaway: A Mile in His Shoes

A Mile in His Shoes is a family-friendly movie (PG) about a young man diagnosed with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of autism) and how his God-given talent (his amazing throwing ability) helps him and others. It's about overcoming challenges in life. It is based on the book "The Legend of Mickey Tussler" (a true story). It's directed by William Dear, the director of "Angels In the Outfield." It stars Dean Cain who plays Arthur Murphy, a baseball coach and Luke Schroder who plays Mickey, the main character. Excellent performances! My family and I enjoyed this movie. It spoke to my heart deeply because one of my kids has symptoms that are similar to Asperger's Syndrome but the doctors diagnosed him with anxiety disorder, instead. My son is very athletic and great with numbers like Mickey. He is also sensitive to noise and crowds like Mickey. When Coach Murphy sees Mickey (a farmer boy) throw apples at a bucket for his pigs, he knows that he has just fo
