Perhaps most distinctive, however, is Wilkin's thesis.The first chapter explains in her own words: The general index, Scripture index, and blank pages for notes and reflection also suit such a purpose. This book and its companion volume are excellently suited for use as small-group or one-on-one discipleship materials, or in a book club focused on Christian books. Third, each chapter closes with Scripture references and reflection questions. Second, her decision to place the incommunicable and communicable attributes of God in separate volumes adds clarity and, I suspect, has a teaching benefit in keeping the categories clearer for readers. She communicates rich, challenging content without lofty, hard-to-understand style. What sets Wilkin's book apart? First, her engaging, clear, contemporary writing style and knack for apt illustrations mean that here the cookies are most definitely on the bottom shelf. Tozer's The Knowledge of the Holy and Arthur Pink's Attributes of Godare notable among them, and Wilkin acknowledges her debt to previous writers. Many books already exist on the attributes of God. In His Image, on the other hand, examines God's communicable attributes, characteristics like kindness and holiness which God does work into Christians through the sanctification process as we are conformed to the image of Christ (Rom. The earlier book focused on characteristics of God which are unique to Him and not transferred ('communicated') to believers in Christ attributes like omniscience, omnipresence, and self-existence fall in that category. Jen Wilkin's newest book, In His Image, continues the consideration of God's attributes which she began in her book None Like Him:10 Ways God Is Different from Us (and Why That's a Good Thing).
