Operation: Mustard Seed - Paperback

by D. Michael Gross (Author)

Microwaved communion bread. Peanut butter sermons. One awkward kid's mission to figure out if faith still matters.

Parker Cross didn't mean to become the face of a middle school faith movement. He just accidentally nuked the body of Christ in a microwave and got volunteered for a church-sponsored "Faith in Action Challenge."

Armed with his best friend, a binder of terrible ideas, and a backpack full of mismatched socks, Parker launches Operation: Mustard Seed-a chaotic, barely-legal attempt to serve God in public.

Viral videos. Dead microphones. Cafeteria Bible debates. And a whole lot of doubt.

What if God's not listening? What if Parker's the only one not "feeling it"? And what if faith doesn't look like thunder and miracles-but socks, sarcasm, and showing up anyway?

Operation: Mustard Seed is a laugh-out-loud, emotionally honest Christian novel for real kids with real questions and mustard-seed-sized hopes.

Perfect for readers ages 10-14 who like their faith stories funny, awkward, and full of grace.
