About this ebook

The enduring classic, now with updated language for today’s reader... 

Seventeen years after Reverend Henry Maxwell first challenged his congregation to ask, “What would Jesus do?” Jesus himself arrives in the town of Raymond. He appears quietly at first, then attracts increasing attention—and with attention, controversy.  

Raymond, along with the rest of the United States, faces a new challenge: How will they respond when face to face with the radical—and sometimes uncomfortable—message of Jesus Christ? When confronted with the physical presence of Jesus in their daily lives, are they truly willing to follow him?
