Certainly, mimicry helped Paul if he did not change his Gospel presentation for the different Gentile groups, he ministered to he would not have been the Apostle to the Gentiles. And it makes a good deal of sense a missionary should be able to culturally integrate or at least understand the people he or she seeks to evangelize. Paul, of course, was the one of the greatest missionaries in history and his skill for attunement shows in his letters he never once tried a cookie cutter statement of &#8220;Okay here the Gospel now you guys just need to get with it Jesus is great.&#8221; Rather he carefully tailored his presentation of eternal gospel truths to the needs of the congregations he wrote to. All of this attunement he did he based of their letters and his personal experiences with them. Obviously, Christians should be able to take this history of attunement and integrate it both into our relations with the body of Christ and into our business lives.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we have discussed the topic of attunement I am reminded of the very Christian nature of the concept.
