When the disciples cried out, “Lord, increase our faith,” Jesus pointed them to something small, stubborn, and invasive: the mustard seed. In the ancient world, mustard was not a polite herb, it was a weed that spread everywhere once it took root. That is what real faith looks like. It does not stay safe or ornamental. It disrupts, it grows, it takes over.In this message, Rev. Shawn Garan explores Luke 17:5–10, the surprising cultural background of the mustard seed, and what it means for us to nurture a living, persistent faith. Faith is not about quantity but about nature. Faith is Dory saying, “Just keep swimming.” Faith is William Wallace crying, “They may take our lives, but they cannot take our freedom.” Faith is Churchill declaring, “Never, never, never give up.”Join us as we discover that mustard-seed faith may be small, but it will not be stopped.📖 Scripture: Luke 17:5–10 (NRSV)
