In His Steps was originally written in 1896, by Charles Monroe Sheldon. This novel details how a minister and five influential Church members begin a year-long examination of truly doing what Jesus would do in everything they do. The whole town is effected by their mission and many lives are changed. This classic is what sparked the What Would Jesus Do? (WWJD), phenomenon.

About the Author
Charles Monroe Sheldon (February 26, 1857 Wellsville, New York - February 24, 1946) was an American minister in the Congregational churches and leader of the Social Gospel movement. Sheldon was educated at Brown University and Andover Theological Seminary.

In the fall of 1896, Sheldon developed a series of sermons that he preached from the pulpit of the Congregational church in Topeka, Kansas. The unifying theme of these sermons was based on posing the question, "what would Jesus do?" when facing moral decisions.

The theme of the sermons was later fictionalized into the novel In His Steps. The central ethos of the novel was not about personal redemption but about moral choices related to encountering circumstances of poverty and deprivation. Originally published in 1898, it sold for 75 cents in hardcover and 25 cents in paperback.
