The focus is entirely on God, and once we have seen him we can clearly see who we are too. Our flaws and weaknesses are exposed in the light of the glory of The Perfect One. “None Like Him” turns this the other way around. Most of them feel very anthropocentric (as in, “what does God want to say to me today” instead of “how can I see God’s glory today through Scripture”), and designed to move emotions instead of the mind. I usually don’t care very much for devotional books. Wilkin leads us through Scripture so we are able to see how amazing our God is, and how that affects us for his glory and for our good.Īt the end of every chapter you’ll find verses for meditation, questions for reflection, and a call to prayer. Each chapter introduces one of God’s incommunicable attributes: infinite, incomprehensible, self-existent, self-sufficient, eternal, immutable, omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent, and sovereign. The subtitle reads, “10 ways God is different from us (and why that’s a good thing)”. But then I looked closely, and my complaints vanished. I really don’t like girly Christian books. It is a relatively thin, teal book with flowers on the cover. Instantly, I was sold.Īt #TGCW16 I bought her most recent book: “None Like Him”. She clearly loves God, his Word, and teaching. I first heard her speak at The Gospel Coalition’s Women Conference back in June.
