Missed It By That Much Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 20, 2008

Little Is Much Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 5, 2017

Jesus used the tiny mustard seed as a comparison to the Kingdom of God. Although it was small, it had potential to become great. The church would start very small, but soon make a significant and eternal impact on humanity.
