This is a contemporary retelling of the classic Christian novel "In His Steps" by Charles M. Sheldon. It is actually written by his great-grandson.
"For almost a century, Charles M. Sheldon's In His Steps has been one of the most beloved Christian novels ever. Now his great-grandson, Dr. Garrett W. Sheldon, brings a contemporary retelling of the story to a new generation.
In What Would Jesus Do? Dr. Sheldon uses updated characters and settings to shed a new and inspiring light on the question, "Just how Christ-like are you willing to be?"
Sheldon's Pastor Maxwell puts this question to his modern day church and what happens as a result will have you asking some basic questions of yourself all over again:
Are you willing to truly surrender your life to follow in the footsteps of Jesus? Are you willing to stop substituting personal activities for personal involvement with people? Are you willing to sacrifice your convenience and work to aid and comfort others?
What Would Jesus Do? is a story of commitment and courage, a challenge to walk in faith and power and- most importantly- a reminder that individual acts of love are still the surest way to change lives and reach people for Christ."
