4.0 out of 5 stars What Would Jesus Do... Really..., August 23, 2006
By Gerald Khoo (Singapore) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
Every wondered where the phrase "What would Jesus do?" came from? It began from this book. Despite today seeing many WWJD products around, reading this book brings us to the very heart of not only how the phrase came about, but also what that phrase really means.

This book was first written as a series of unusual sermons that was a continued story, one chapter to be given out each week about what happened in the lives of various persons with different backgrounds and vocations, but all applied WWJD to every decision they made. Charles Sheldon was the author, and he was the pastor of Central Congregational Church in Topeka, Kansas, and this series began in June 1896.

One of the amazing things about this book is that despite it being written over 100 years ago, the story still applies to this very day. As you read it, you will find not so much that you travel back to 1896, but it feels like it was written for today. What would Jesus do if He were you?

This book challenges the reader to consider the question "What Would Jesus Do?" in every decision in life. It tells of different persons who after taking an oath to do that began to bear their cross as a Christian, but at the same time experience the Spirit's work in their lives and through their lives. Though it is a story written by Sheldon, it could very well have been a real life story as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gentle reminder, May 13, 2007
By Deborah J. LeRoux (Massena, NY USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book although over 100 years old holds a gentle reminder that is still applicable in our modern society as to just what following Christ means. It holds no condemnation, simply a soft calling to everyone to be who God has created them to be in His love and grace. It is a book that should be in everyone's library to be picked up and read whenever one is feeling out of touch with God.

4.0 out of 5 stars A wonderul classic!, July 14, 2006
IN HIS STEPS, by Charles M. Sheldon, is without a doubt, the
most heartwarming tale of redemption, honor, and love.

It asks the very interesting question, "What would Jesus do?".
Well, that's a very intriguing concept! What WOULD Jesus do?????

You'll get more out of this than you think! AND you will figure
out the true meaning of Christ's death!
