Ok, so what is this mustard revolution you ask?  It is about a seed that a Jewish man spoke of two millenia ago.  He said it was small, but it would grow to the point that birds would nest in its shade.  He was talking about a kingdom, but why would anyone want a Mustard Bush Kingdom?  That's what Jesus does.  He makes the everyday, mundane ordinariness, extraordinary.  Do we believe it?  Are we convinced that Jesus can make a kingdom out of a mustard seed?  If so, what could he do with me?
My name is Ben.  I go by 'B-smooth' too, but no one has actually called me that.  I am wrestling with what it means to be a follower of Christ, a good husband, a man who is relevant, purpose-driven and authentic.  I know there is something to this mustard seed.  I know that I am filled with discontent with how 'church' usually goes.  I know that there has to be more.  So it is...a mustard revolution...nothing big or extravagant...just an ordinary, everyday, run-of-the-mill bush...who longs to be radical.  Stay tuned as the seed is planted.
