In His Steps

Last summer, I was a temp. for my church's secretary while she was on vacation. The job was a joke! I mean the secretary had told everyone she knew she'd be gone and not to call the office. My job?... answer the phone! So that week I got paid to answer about five calls and be completely and utterly bored out of my mind!

So on my break (from sitting), I walked around and went to the annex. On the long front table, that sits by the door, I spotted a pile of books that looked like they held the promise of quenching boredom. I scanned through them and found one that looked interesting; the title was In His Steps, and the author was Charles Sheldon.

The theme of the book is WWJD (for those who are not familiar with this let me enlighten you WWJD= what would Jesus do?). Right off the bat, in the introduction, the author lets you know that this is a challenging read, but not because of big words but the thought provoking message it sends.

The novel is about the founders of the acronym; about a small town church making a pledge to ask WWJD before EVERY decision they make. This movement shook their community for years after.

If your a christian and your wondering what you can do for your community, how to reach out to your surroundings, or want to develop your christian mindset, read In His Steps.

If your not a christian but your looking for something for your mind to mull over, like dramatic stories, or searching for something different, read In His Steps.
