James K. A. Smith: You Are What You Love

| May 12, 2017 | no comments

One may leave the pages of this book wondering if Smith intentionally placed these two ideas side-by-side between the covers of one book in order to spark a new conversation on the essential postmodern concept of moving the emphasis of discipleship away from the mind and onto the heart. Was he of two minds as he wrote it? Or was he reorienting the reader to think about discipleship in a fresh manner. No, we’ve just been instructed that retraining our thinking is not the path. We must retrain our heart to love the right things.
