Things We Couldn't Say

I could hardly put this book down. Diet's story is fascinating and gripping - and such an inspiration and testament to her faith in God. Highly recommend!

This book is about doing the right thing, no matter what the cost and not loosing sight of God. It is a story of courage and great hardship. This should be a must read for anybody who has any desire for what history can teach us.

Diet Eman was in the Dutch resistance when the Nazi's occupied the Netherlands. As a 19 year old, she 'smuggled' Jews to safe houses under the noses of the Nazis. Later, she moved them on trains to the countryside, even more risky. A very important aspect of WWII history, inspiring.

Wow - what a book. Diet and her friends were certainly God's hands and heart in their work. They loved so big - so courageously. I would so like to meet her. It would be an honor to be able to talk with her about how she lived her faith out. To her it is so real.Reading her book has made me wonder what she thinks - or what we think - of our "convenient lifestyle" as Americans. And how we treat each other. Diet risked her life many times for her neighbors - and I do not even know all of the people in my small neighborhood.Thank you Diet for your writing your book. I am sure it was a struggle to put all of the stories back together in your mind and then write them out. Yeah for you. Christ's peace,Paula Gallagher Carlsbad CA

I loved this book, it is so inspiring and really makes you count your blessings, that we aren't at war now, and for some of us have never had to live through a war! We can thank and praise God that He has been faithful, and also was faithful to Diet Eman and many others, He never left them. I recommend this book true story) to anyone.
