In 1896, Charles M. Sheldon's book, "In His Steps," was first published. As its story unfolded, readers found themselves witnessing the impact on the lives of the book's primary characters as they accepted the challenge to ask "What would Jesus do?" before making any decisions or taking any action...in every area of their lives. Their aim was to walk as closely as possible in the steps of Christ regardless of the immediate consequences.

Almost eighty years after that challenge was first posed on those pages, Robert L. "Bobby" Mitchell, a young Atlanta businessman, received a copy of In His Steps as a Christmas gift from his mother. Bobby found his own challenge clarified in the struggle of Sheldon's character Milton Wright, a businessman for whom applying the question "What would Jesus do?" had incredible ramifications. Nevertheless, regardless of the potential ramifications, Bobby, like Milton Wright, determined that following Jesus' steps through the business world was exactly what God was calling him to do.
