Corrie was not subtle, sophisticated, or clever. How, then, could the Beje become a meeting place for need and supply?

Chapter six involves another learning process for Corrie, by which she gains the skills to navigate the Dutch Underground movement. Corrie matures and grows, although she credits God for giving her the ability to be clever and innovative. When Willem explains that developing her own sources will increase the safety and longevity of her operation, Corrie begins immediately. Corrie writes with a tense and excited tone, which conveys the sense of her work’s danger and importance.
