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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e 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 \u003ci\u003eCruciformity\u003c\/i\u003e in the church and the academy, including his own subsequent work in Pauline theology.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eMichael J.
