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.
