“To be in Christ is to be shaped by the narrative of Christ’s self-giving love, a narrative that always takes the form of the cross. Cruciformity is the reenactment of the story of Christ in our lives, a life of faithful obedience and self-emptying love for God and neighbour.” — Michael J. Gorman, Cruciformity: Paul’s Narrative Spirituality of the Cross
