One of the things that I like most about James K. A. Smith’s approach to Christian faith and practice in You Are What You Love is how well he turns certain concepts and principles upside-down. Consider the language of ritual and liturgy. From a modernist Baptist approach, those are words you would not use often (if at all) when talking about ministry. They’re too “high church” and too connected to a particular understanding of “salvation by works.” Even in this short video about youth ministry, Smith takes two seemingly disparate things and brings them together smashingly well.
