Sometimes the answer to one question changes everything
When Rev. Henry Maxwell asked the members of his small church to pledge not to do anything, whether significant or mundane, without first asking themselves the question "What would Jesus do?" he had no idea what the next year would bring. Neither did those who agreed to this seemingly easy task. One by one, their lives would change. But what they never anticipated was how their entire town would be affected. Now the novel that has changed millions of lives can change yours as well. Discover this classic story for yourself and find out why the words penned more than a century ago are more powerful than ever. Charles M. Sheldon was a pastor in 1896 when he chose to preach one Sunday night on the question "What would Jesus do?" A sermon became a series, that became an article, that became a book, that became a movement. And the book has sold over 30 million copies.

Notă biografică
Charles Monroe Sheldon nasceu em 1857 e cresceu em Dakota, EUA. Filho de pastor, Charles fora incentivado a ler diariamente a Bíblia, desabrochando nele, desde cedo, uma profunda paixão pela literatura. Aos 12 anos, começou a contribuir para um jornal de Boston. Em seguida, surgiram dezenas de pequenas obras e centenas de artigos para revistas e jornais. A influência de seu pai pôde ser percebida também na vocação pastoral. Formado pelo Andover Theological Seminary, Charles marcou seu pastorado por iniciativas inéditas à época, disseminando clubes de leitores, jardins de infância (experiência trazida da Alemanha), ministérios com trabalhadores e apoio aos pobres.Charles dizia que "pregava o evangelho para as pessoas simples". Quase 100 anos antes do movimento dos direitos civis, Charles Sheldon fazia questão de estar e servir entre a população negra. Aposentou-se do púlpito em 1919, mas continuou trabalhando como editor por diversos anos. Em 24 de fevereiro de 1946, faleceu aos 89 anos, vítima de derrame. Sua obra mais popular "Em seus passos o que faria Jesus?" tornou-se o nono livro mais vendido da história.
