Reviews

In His Steps left me speechless....


(5 stars)

This wonderful book changed my life. In all of the fifteen years I have lived on this earth I have never listened to such a convicting and beautiful audio!!!! Left me utterly speechless! Chapter after chapter, I could not stop listening to this incredible novel! Such a splendid read filled with convicting and heartwarming stories of men and women living out the words 'What would Jesus do?' Throughout this book the men and women that have vowed to follow the words 'what would Jesus do' for an entire year use their gifts, talents, jobs, income, place in society and line of work to point others to Christ. In this deep and inspiring novel street beggars, drunkards and dwellers of the wretched tenants ask the pastor and the church why the wealthy people of the town can sing the words 'All for Jesus' and not truly carry the cross with them all the way. Are Christ and His cross too heavy for them? Do they truly mean 'I will follow Jesus all the way' or do they merely want the respect of a common churchgoer? Is Christ a part of their Sunday routine or their entire lives? Furthermore the lost, confused and unsaved people ask what Jesus would do in their positions as low-class street beggars. I was so very moved by this book I cannot explain how I feel. It is almost as if Christ, through Charles M. Sheldon's book, has lit a match in my heart and started a fire for Christ and His lost and broken people. As Ronald Reagan would say 'If you can't make them see the light, make them feel the heat'. As you partake in this audiobook may the light of Christ heat a fire in your soul as it did my own. Thank you LibriVox for this arrangement of cast and their voices. Lastly, I must ask this question to you readers: What would Jesus do?
