In His Steps by the late Charles M. Sheldon (Wikipedia) is his vintage classic faith-exploring literary fiction novel (Wikipedia), originally out in 1896, which happens to have been the highly influential source of the popular "What Would Jesus Do?" quote and movement (Wikipedia), now available in an abridged and updated version specially intended to be more accessible to the modern reader, free courtesy of Christian publisher Barbour Books.

We've previously received an unabridged version free from Baker's Revell imprint, in case you wanted to compare.

Currently free @ B&N (also UK), Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK), Kobo (not available to Canadians), and ChristianBook (DRM-free ePub available to selected countries). May also be free at iTunes and/or Google Play for the US, as Barbour freebies are sometimes said to also show up.

Description (part-cribbed from the Baker edition, since the Barbour one just praises their abridged classics line)
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.

Whether your preference is for fiction or nonfiction, you’re sure to find a favorite in Barbour’s new abridged and updated classics line. Whether you’ve already been exposed to these inspiring classics—or if you’re new to the classics—these quick reads will encourage and entertain, while fitting perfectly into your busy life.
