Part of the “Helpful Books” series. Shane Shaddix & Justin Bailey discuss James K. A. Smith’s You Are What You Love. Smith argues that we are not merely thinking beings, but we are most fundamentally loving beings, meaning that our discipleship cannot simply be about knowing the right things. Instead, we must cultivate habits and disciplines that shape our hearts to love Christ, his Kingdom, and the things he loves.
