The first and most important word in the title, “cruciformity,” is my own term for a concept commonly believed to be central to Paul’s theology and ethics: conformity to the crucified Christ.10 It will be the task of this book to uncover what Paul means by conformity to the crucified Christ, showing that this conformity is a dynamic correspondence in daily life to the strange story of Christ crucified as the primary way of experiencing the love and grace of God. Cruciformity is, in other words, Paul’s oddly inviting, even compelling, narrative spirituality. It is, as the subtitle says, a spirituality of the cross — the focus of his gospel and life. Paul’s mission in life was to seek to “order the lives of Christian congregations by pulling everything into the tremendous gravitational field of the cross.”
