In His Steps

by Charles M. Sheldon

   When a man asks the congregation of a church what it really means to follow in Christ’s step, a community is changed forever. The man’s question challenges the Reverend who begins to realize that he was not living as Jesus would. The reverend proposes to his congregation to pledge, for one year, to ask, "What would Jesus do?" in every circumstance, welcoming anyone who wished to join him. A newspaper editor makes dramatic changes in his paper’s content. A soloist in the choir decides not to except a career of singing for fame and money. A rich heiress becomes a minister to poor homeless women.

   I was challenged by this book to ask myself, "Would Jesus do this?" in every aspect of my own life. Read this book and see if it challenges you as well! 430 pgs.
