Sunday Devotional: The Faith of a Mustard Seed?
Jesus tells us that if we have faith as small as a mustard seed, nothing is impossible. But if nothing happens when we pray, is our faith not strong enough?
There are over 650 prayers in the Bible, and Scripture records 26 prayers of Jesus. Christians are told to pray, and we do! Some of us are better at it than others. (This is not a boast--it's more of a confession that I could do better.)

"Cheap grace," a term coined by theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, describes a superficial form of Christianity that avoids the difficult work of confronting societal wrongs.
