Book Overview
When it was first published in 2001, Cruciformity broke new ground with a vision of Pauline spirituality that illuminated what it meant to be a person or community in Christ. Beginning with Paul's express desire to "know nothing but Christ crucified," Gorman showed how true spirituality is telling the story, in both life and words, of God's self-revelation in Jesus, so that we might practice "cruciformity"--the impossible possibility of conformity to the crucified Christ. Two decades later, Gorman's seminal work is still a powerful model for combining biblical studies and theological reflection to make Paul's letters more immediately relevant to contemporary Christian life. This twentieth-anniversary edition includes a new foreword by Nijay Gupta--a next-generation Pauline scholar heavily influenced by Gorman--as well as an afterword by the author, in which he reflects on the legacy of Cruciformity in the church and the academy, including his own subsequent work in Pauline theology.
