" Professional storytellers tell of getting an audience in a “story trance”; people so come under the spell of a story that they start breathing together, nodding their heads in unison, gasping in unison, smiling in unison, moving eyes in unison. It’s almost as if they are reenacting the story in real time. Could this be what it means to “have the same mindset as Christ Jesus” (Philippians 2:5)? By the telling and retelling of the Jesus story, God syncs our mind with Christ. "
