In His Steps by Charles Sheldon

What Would Jesus Do?

Chapter 1, page 9 ~ “The minister went up into his study and shut the door. In a few minutes he heard his wife go out, and then everything was quiet. He settled himself at his desk with a sigh of relief and began to write. His text was from 1 Peter 2:21: ‘For hereunto were ye called; because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example that ye should follow his steps.’.”

Page 13 ~ “No one had ever accused Henry Maxwell of being a dull preacher. On the contrary, he had often been charged with being sensational;”

Page 14 ~ “The sermon had come to a close….the entire congregation was startled by the sound of a man’s voice…The next moment the figure of a man came out of the shadow there and walked down the middle aisle. Before the startled congregation fairly realized what was going on, the man had reached the open space in front of the pulpit and had turned about facing the people.”
