Description
You Are What You Love: The Spiritual Power of Habit by James K. A. Smith explores how the things we love shape our hearts and ultimately, who we are. This book reveals how our cultural influences can teach us to love rival gods instead of the One we were made for. Smith offers practical insights and individual and communal practices to help us shape the Christian life.
Through engaging examples from film, literature, and music, as well as new material on topics such as marriage, family, youth ministry, and faith and work, Smith helps us recognize the formative power of culture and the transformative possibilities of Christian practices.
With a focus on the spiritual power of habit, Smith provides a unique perspective on how our daily choices and practices can lead us closer to God. This book is a valuable resource for anyone seeking to deepen their faith and live a more intentional life.
