Free Kindle None Like Him: 10 Ways God Is Different From Us (and Why That's A Good Thing) ebooks Download
Human beings were created to reflect the image of God—but only to a limited extent. Although we share important attributes with God (love, mercy, compassion, etc.), there are other qualities that only God possesses, such as unlimited power, knowledge, and authority. At the root of all sin is our rebellious desire to be like God in such ways—a desire that first manifested itself in the garden of Eden. In None Like Him, Jen Wilkin leads us on a journey to discover ten ways God is different from us—and why that’s a good thing. In the process, she highlights the joy of seeing our limited selves in relation to a limitless God, and how such a realization frees us from striving to be more than we were created to be.

This book is a breath of fresh air for the believer! I shared it with many and everyone (men and women) were blessed by it. We need to know who God is and who we are in light of Him. Jen writes like I imagine she talks so her message is not lost in translation. I'm re-reading this every year for some "fresh, well-seasoned, perspective" to use a phrase from the movie Ratatouille.
This book has changed my view of God, but mostly it's changed my view of myself. My God is LIMITLESS but I'm limited. He is ALL in ALL and I'm nothing apart from Him.I plan to use this book as the basis for a Women's Bible Study in the near future. That's how good it is. I want all my friends to read it and experience the change.
None Like Him: 10 Ways God Is Different from Us (and Why That's a Good Thing)By Jen WilkinPublished by CrosswayAn uplifting book and takes us to a deeper issue as God and His attributes. Written in an entertaining and accessible language while remaining deep.The author shows us with much biblical evidence the natural attributes of God, also uses many illustrations and personal experiences that help us better understand the content.Although it seems to be aimed at a female audience, None Like Him, it is a book for men, that is for every believer in Jesus Christ. Some of the issues addressed are:The infinity of God: The God without limits.Self-existence.Self-sufficiency.God's eternity.At the end of each chapter, you can find: Bible verses (to memorize or study), application questions and a prayer. These elements allow the content of this book was even more marked in our minds.None like Him is an introduction to the topic of Divinity. It shows God as the Scriptures reveal. This book will be very enriching for all those who want to know God."Even the most intellectually gifted theologian will barely scratch the surface of understanding who God is."
As a christian we try are hardest to be be like god and to have all the attributes that God has but we can not. We were born in to sin that is why Jesus died for us so that we can be saved by his grace, Jesus is interceding on the right had of his father for us . When I read about this book when it was presented to me, I knew it was something that I need to read because all of need to realize that we are made in his own image but there is know way that we can be like him because he is perfect he is sinless. I love that fact that the book talks about the 10 ways God is different from us.They are broken down from: God is INFINITE(He is the God of no limits),God is INCOMPREHENSIBLE (He is the God of infinite mercy), God is SELF-EXISTENT(He is the God of infinite creativity),God is SELF-SUFFICIENT (He is the God of infinite provision),God is ETERNAL(He is the God of infinite days),God is IMMUTABLE(He is the God of infinite sameness),God is OMNIPRESENT(He is the God of infinite place),God is OMNISCIENT(He is the God of infinite knowledge),God is OMNIPOTENT(He is the God of infinite power),God is SOVEREIGN(He is the God of infinite rule).The authors lets us know that we can not be and will never be on the same level as God and that is a good thing. There is no comparison to god no matter how hard we try. What I love about the book is at the end of each chapter it includes:verses for meditation,questions for reflection and a prayer. We need to focus on worshiping God and not trying to compare ourselves to him, God designed us to be a certain way for a reason and we need to trust God for that."I received this book for free for my honest opinion from FlyByPromotions."
I’m always hesitant to read an audiobook narrated by its author, as most authors are not professional narrators. This can make listening difficult. Thankfully that’s not the case with None Like Him by Jen Wilkin.She nailed it!She sounds crisp, clear and has the right intonation. Her reading speed was neither too fast nor too slow, which made the pacing of the book flow comfortably. The audio sounds professionally produced with no background noises to distract.In this audio, she covers ten attributes of God. These aspects will make you remember how to be in awe of the Creator all over again.And though these aspects might sound scary and intimidating, they aren't. The author manages to explain through Scripture and story, that these scary-sounding attributes are actually meant to comfort us.No longer do we need to feel obligated to be in control of everything. God has it all under control! And He loves us like no one ever could. So we can let go of that false sense of running the show and let the One who made the show have His power back.With ten chapters devoted to each attribute, the author provides relevant Scriptures to study at the end. Along with a few study questions to help you dig deeper into each aspect of God. I particularly like the very end. This is where the author encourages the reader to write out a prayer based on that chapter’s attribute.Overall, I found this audio book to be professionally produced and filled with great information. I can see this book being used in a small group study on God’s attributes. But, it would work equally well as a personal study for any individual interested in learning more about God and how we are created in His image, but He is so much more than we could ever be (and why that’s a good thing)!.I received this audio book free from the publisher in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.
