![]() ![]() It’s far best savored, considered and maybe re-read. ![]() ![]() At just 121 pages long, this is a book you could read in an afternoon sitting. My only quibble with the book is its brevity. Because there are so many books out there that study the names of God and what they say about His character, Jen’s approach to the character of God stood out as unique. It didn’t feel like a chore or a seminary exercise to read this book, and yet the way she draws on Scripture has great depth. She explains things so clearly and it’s so well-written. I’ve read other books before that discuss comprehensive theology such as this Jen’s is my favorite thus far. There’s so much freedom when we stop trying to be all-knowing or all-sovereign, and when we allow God to be God and worship Him for who He truly is! She also reminds us that we aren’t like God and that’s a good thing. In the book, she discusses how God is: Infinite, Incomprehensible, Self-Existent, Self-Sufficient, Eternal, Immutable, Omnipresent, Omniscient, Omnipotent, and Sovereign. Jen Wilkin gives an insightful, accessible overview of the attributes of God in her book, None Like Him. None Like Him: 10 Ways That God is Different Than Us (and Why That’s a Good Thing) ![]()

![]() The universal truth is that we don't replay, so in life we shouldn't put up with situations where we're patently unhappy or dissatisfied. The message that I'm interpreting from this book - certainly from the ending - is that we don't have the luxury of rewriting our past lives or living them differently. We don't all have the luxury of stripping back twenty years' worth of life and starting again.
