Picture a 52-year-old Dutch watchmaker's daughter standing in the frozen yard of Ravensbruck concentration camp, convinced she's about to die. A week earlier, her beloved sister Betsie had perished in this same hell. Now, in December 1944, Corrie ten Boom's name echoes across the roll call-a sound that usually means execution. But instead of death, she receives an incomprehensible gift: freedom. A week later, officials would order the killing of all women her age. The paperwork releasing her? A clerical error. Or was it? This moment marks not an ending but a beginning-the launch of three decades as what Corrie would call a "tramp for the Lord." Armed with nothing but a borrowed coat and an unshakeable conviction that her survival had purpose, this elderly woman would traverse 60 countries, smuggle Bibles behind the Iron Curtain, and teach millions about forgiveness. Her message wasn't theoretical-it was forged in the furnace of Nazi brutality, tested in face-to-face encounters with her former tormentors, and proven in the everyday struggles of bitterness and fear that haunt us all. Traveling three days by train to Holland, Corrie arrived at a Christian hospital where kindness overwhelmed her. The nurses, many former colleagues from her pre-war youth work, bathed her lice-ravaged body, dressed her in clean clothes, and served warm food that tasted like heaven after months of starvation rations. When Bach played on the radio, she sobbed uncontrollably-not from pain but from beauty. Prison had permanently altered her vision. Material success no longer impressed her. Money meant nothing. She'd tasted death and emerged ransomed for a purpose beyond herself.
