Jesus Teaches Christian Readers to Ask Which Desires a Book Is Strengthening

[D Vandergraph]

Books can shape desire as much as belief.

Jesus teaches us to pay attention to the heart.

As you read, notice what the story or argument trains you to want.

Does it make selfishness attractive? Does it deepen compassion? Does it normalize cynicism?

Christian reading is not fear of ideas. It is discernment about formation.
