Summary: The Original WWJD Book/Author
Comment: I am ordering several of these as gifts! What a great all-occasion "stocking stuffer"! When I moved to my present location, I passed the library - where they were giving away books to make more room(?)! I came across the original edition of this book and it started me to thinking of how I could actually put His teachings to work in my life on a daily basis, and become a better example of what Christian- "ity" is really supposed to be: Christian,literally translated, meaning - "Christ-like" - and all actions coming from a center of love. Or: WWJD? I hadn't been aware of WWJD?, but I soon came across the same book, in paperback, on a revolving rack at a drugstore - then the jewelry started popping up. Christmas, I found WWJD? music on CD! This is what the author was intending to happen when he wrote the book back then! This is an extremely readable book, for all ages - young and old - with a wonderful storyline that represents an entire town that has met the pastor's challenge of trying for a full year to do as Jesus would do. They thought, as Christians, it would be a simple thing - but as you will see in this book, sometimes the simplest things can be the hardest to do! After I read the book, I wanted to be a part of something like was illustrated here. I'm working on it! It would be especially fun, even, for small towns to try it and see if they could set a prototype of this sort - or even challenge the church-goers where you live to try it. This book tells us how. But, read it, first, just because it's so GOOD!

Summary: What an awesome book!!
Comment: In His Steps is without a doubt a great book, and it is perhaps the second best book I have ever read, the best being the Bible itself, of course. It is such a great book not because it employs superb imagery, excellent symbolism, or the type of plot that would "woo" critics over, but because of the very core of the book, its message. The message is one whose roots go way down into what it means to be a Christian, a follower of Christ. What does it mean to follow Christ in every aspect of life? This Bible-based book puts forth a challenge to do just that through one question that is the main point of the book, "What Would Jesus Do?" - that is, to do what Jesus would do in every situation we are in. That question - "What Would Jesus Do?" - is one that should echo around at all times in the minds of those who profess to be Christians. It is a question that is not easy to answer, and Jesus never said it would be; He just said, "Pick up your cross, and follow Me." It is the greatest challenge, adventure, and fulfillment in life to follow Christ, to continually ask that question and use it as the basis for every action throughout our lifetimes. That's what this book puts forth, and that it why it is such a great book. This book has sparked a revolution in my life about what it means to follow Christ. What Would Jesus Do? That's what it means to follow Christ all the way - to give your life to Him as He gave His life to you and follow Him as Savior, Lord, and Master. What Would Jesus Do? - John Becker
