In His Image: 10 Ways God Calls Us to Reflect His Character Paperback – April 27, 2018

Jesus, I want to be more like You. Let me see with Your eyes. Let me feel with Your heart. Jen Wilkin provides a starting point in your journey of becoming like Christ. There are far more character traits we should strive to emulate, in the power of the Spirit, but these 10 are a great start. This short book is highly recommended.A few key quotes:"What is God’s will for your life? Put simply, that you would be like Christ.""Asking the question 'Who should I be?' means asking for the first place to set our foot to the narrow path. With every step forward, we increasingly 'put on the new self, which is being renewed in knowledge after the image of its creator' (Col. 3:10). Yes, the will of God is the narrow path for those who walk it. But we need not wander aimlessly, as those with no sense of where his will would have us place our next step, in danger of straying off a cliff. We simply walk in the steps of our Savior, Jesus Christ.""God’s will for our lives is that we conform to the image of Christ, whose incarnation shows us humanity perfectly conformed to the image of God."“For this is the will of God, your sanctification. . . . For God has not called us for impurity, but in holiness” (1 Thess. 4:3, 7). Simply put, God’s will for your life is that you be holy. That you live a life of set-apartness. That, by the power of the Holy Spirit, you strive for utter purity of character (Heb. 12:14)."The Bible is filled with exhortations for how we can reflect our Creator as we become increasingly like Christ.""Fullness of joy results when we seek to reflect our Maker. It is what we were created to do. It is the very will of God for our lives."

Love this book

Such a powerful book, it taught me so much about the character of God and how it applies to my life. It made me fall in love with God even more just knowing how much his character aligns with everything I have been searching for my entire life. It has made my marriage better and made me a better mother, just reading and understand more about Gods characteristics. You made have to read it a twice to really grasp everything it is trying to say but its so worth it.

I bought this book for Christmas to put in my stocking. I think it’s really really nice and it had good reviews. Someone posted it on social media so I decided to purchase it. I will do a follow up after I read it. Also, thank you very much for packaging. The books properly sometimes books come to me from Amazon and they get ruined, but these did not.

Love this book

Worth the read.

I purchased this book after a friend of mine spoke about numerous times during our ladies bible study and also during our ladies retreat. As a reader of this book I found myself challenged by Wilkins words by examining my own life in light of God's image and have been inspired to pursue deeper intimacy with Him. I also felt as though this book offers a new concept, fresh perspectives and practical wisdom that will enrich your own spiritual journey. Wilkins also does a great job by compelling the argument for restoration of the image of God through Christ, all while highlighting the redemptive work of salvation in renewing our likeness to God. I also really like how Wilkins places a series of questions along with a prayer at the end of each chapter as a reflection of what the reader had read. Overall I highly recommend this to any lady who is willing to gain more knowledge and intimacy with God our Father.
