None Like Him: 10 Ways God Is Different from Us (and Why That's a Good Thing)

Outstanding truths based in scripture help us to better understand who God is and who we are - and are not. This is a must read for a believer ready to take their walk with God to a new level.

Reminded me and convicted me - what an Awesome God who desires for us to know him, not just a book for women

This is a great book! It was recommended by a friend of mine and now I’m in a Bible study that is using it. Would highly recommend.

In my opinion, Jen Wilkin is one of the most important teachers of our time. In a time where Christian resources and a plethora of ideas abound, we need solid exposition and teaching, and Jen Wilkin is that. If she is anything, she is faithful to the Word of God. Her materials do not reek of fluff and silly alliteration or other literary devices. In contrast, her illustrations are meaningful and relatable, bringing depth and context to the point at hand. Wilkin is at once profound yet accessible. After working through Tozer, Grudem, and Pink in studying God's character and attributes, her book is a welcome change, well organized and easily grasped. Readers should know that this book is a study of the 10 Incommunicable Attributes of God (attributes true only of Him) whereas her new release, "In His Image" is a study of his communicable attributes (attributes true of God and of the believer). Early on in this book she provides a list of both of these. His incommunicable attributes that are discussed in this book are: 1. Infinite 2. Incomprehensible 3. Self-Existent 4. Self-Sufficient 5. Eternal 6. Immutable 7. Omnipresent 8. Omniscient 9. Omnipotent 10. Sovereign Each chapter is followed with verses for meditation and questions to journal through. Could easily be used for a book club and/or women's study. I'm using it as a resource to develop materials for our upcoming women's retreat at church. Cannot recommend it highly enough.

I’m only half way through and can safely say this book is a triumph. It gets us close as we can to the heart of an unsearchable God. It challenges us to understand him better and teaches to accept the unknown Lover of our souls. Jen - thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world.

Great book ! Helps to make you realizes and understand Gods attributes.

I purchased this book on the recommendation of a number of evangelical leaders I follow on various social media. It's a good thing none of them mentioned (or I missed) that Wilkin wrote this book specifically for "Christian women", otherwise I probably would not have bought it, and therefore would have missed a jewel of a book, and a treasure trove of practical and convicting insight into the character of God. But once I paid cold, hard cash for the book, I was compelled to read it, and I'm glad I did. While Jen's purpose in writing the book, as outlined in the Introduction, was to help our Christian sisters to become God-fearing women, I would humbly suggest the truths therein are hugely impactful to both genders, and may be even more applicable to men in some cases (see the chapter on Power). Each chapter in the book describes a characteristic that can only be attributable to God. Some of them you you probably learned in Sunday School, such as Omnipresence, Omniscience, and Omnipotent, but a number of others, such as Incomprehensible, Self-Sufficiency, and Sovereign, to name a few. And she does so in a way that is perfect for a devotional, or even a group Bible study. The text doesn't just provide a description and Scriptural basis for the trait in question, but ends with verses on which to meditate, convicting questions to ask yourself, and suggestions on how to frame your prayer accordingly. Jen has a wonderful writing style that is easy-to-read, humble, and engaging, with some funny personal anecdotes as well. I highly recommend this book. --------------- I noticed Amazon and Goodreads have a slightly different meanings to their 5-point scale. I thought it was odd to have a different rating for the same book on two different sites, so I came up with my own scale below. For the record, it is fairly close to Amazon's scale, but allows me to be consistent between the two sites. 5 - Fantastic. Life-altering. Maybe only 30 in a lifetime. 4 - Very good. 3 - Worth your time. 2 - Not very good. 1 - Atrocious.

This was my first time reading anything by this author so I was curious. The theme of the study book and the chapter headings had me eager and ready for some thought-provoking reading and a chance to further study a subject that will always pull me in- The character of God. Wilkin's writing style and careful inclusion of theology and Scripture were well-done. It was easy reading on one level, but challenged the reader to meditate and consider, pray and study more on another level. I chose to spend a great deal of time on and between each chapter including doing the study questions, further meditation reading, and prayer journaling along with the chapters. I enjoyed pursuing further study on each chapter. The introduction and wrap-up chapters were great, giving me a direction at the beginning and an overview to remind me where I'd been while pulling it all together for me. I highly recommend this book and study to deepen Spiritual walk and knowledge. It's for everyone and makes a good group read-study manual.

I have long sought to temper my presentation of the Attributes of God with real life examples to bring home the wonders of knowing Him. Jen Wilkins book is a Master Class in this. Every Christian should read, and re-read it.

Jen Wilkin has written a winsome and compelling read in None Like Him. There is so much to delight about in knowing how and why God is so different from us and why that's a good thing. In many ways, it helps creation rediscover it's purpose and awe in its Creator. Certain parts of the book spring to life and register an imperative reminder that only God can be God and we cannot even if we tried. It liberates, transforms and incites us to know who we are and who God is. Excellent read!

Muy buen libro!

Perfecto, lo estuve buscando en muchas partes, y aquí lo encontré super bien. El tamaño excelente, y muy linda la portada. El contenido aún no lo leo, aparte de que sirve para practicar el inglés.

Awesome book.
