Zeke and the Secret of the Mustard Seed: A Story About Real Faith for Children

What if you do not need big faith? What if small, real faith is enough?

Zeke Miller is ten years old and not particularly brave. He does not like speaking in front of people, he sometimes gives away the best half of his sandwich, and he once accidentally filled a church corridor with fog.

But across seven funny, warm, and quietly powerful chapters, Zeke discovers something that changes everything. Faith does not have to be loud or certain or perfect. It just has to be real.

From standing up to a dare at a sleepover, to sharing his lunch with someone who annoys him, to finally stepping onto a stage when his legs feel like noodles, Zeke learns that courage, kindness, truth, and forgiveness are not just Bible words. They are everyday choices that grow a mustard seed faith into something extraordinary.

Perfect for children aged 7 to 12. Includes seven chapters, reflection questions for each chapter, and a Bible verse highlights page.

A gentle, engaging, and genuinely funny read for children and families.
