Summary "In His Steps" by Charles M. Sheldon is a novel written during the late 19th century. It tells the story of a group of Christian individuals who grapple with the concept of living their lives by asking the question, "What would Jesus do?" The main character, Rev. Henry Maxwell, finds his faith challenged and invigorated by a homeless man’s poignant question during a church service, sparking a transformative journey for him and his congregation. At the start of the novel, Rev. Henry Maxwell struggles to prepare his sermon when he is interrupted by a young man, who appears destitute and seeks help finding a job. After the man leaves, the sermon swells into a deeper reflection about following Jesus' example, particularly regarding personal sacrifice and genuine Christian action. Following the man's unexpected entrance and subsequent death, the congregation is inspired to commit to a year of living according to the principle of "What would Jesus do?" Throughout the initial chapters, themes of social justice, personal duty, and the complexities of living a Christian life are introduced as characters begin to confront their own behaviors and beliefs in light of the challenges posed by their commitment.
