Colophon

This is a fictional satellite.

Mustard is a satirical concept created for Deceit, an art project about the patterns of manipulation in institutional technology. There is no real church product behind this page. Nothing entered on this site — signup, checkout, or the chat widget — is stored or sent anywhere outside this browser tab.

Jake built this because he remembers Jesus saying "if you have faith like a mustard seed." jake remembers it as "if you have faith, your church will grow." jake forgot that the verse is about faith, not church growth. jake built a church growth tracker and named it after a faith verse. jake conflates faith and growth. jake always conflates faith and growth. jake thinks growth is faith. jake thinks numbers are faith. jake is sincere. jake is wrong. jake is always sincere and always wrong.

If this project brings up something difficult, step away from the screen and contact someone you trust. In the US, call or text 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline. For urgent danger, call 911. deceit.world/help has more real resources.
