About this episode

Dan Stribling discusses the difference between static and kinetic faith, drawing insights from Colossians to encourage spiritual growth.

In this powerful Part 3 of the “No Substitutes” Colossians series, Senior Minister Dan Stribling reveals the difference between a static faith that stays comfortable and a kinetic faith that keeps moving with Jesus. Drawing from Colossians 1:24–2:5, Pastor Dan shows how Paul rejoices in suffering, proclaims the revealed mystery “Christ in you, the hope of glory,” and toils with Christ’s energy to present everyone mature in Him. Discover why your faith might feel stuck—even when you’re doing “all the right things”—and practical steps to break the plateau.If you want a faith that grows, moves, and bears fruit, this message is for you.📍 FCC Brazil • Brazil, Indiana👉 Subscribe for weekly sermons from the No Substitutes series— Connect with us:• Instagram, Facebook & X: @fccbrazil• Website & service times: fccbrazil.org• Office: office@fccbrazil.orgNew here?
