This is Pastor Rick's Daily Hope, the audio broadcast ministry of Pastor Rick Warren.

Today we continue with our series called Building Character.

In these teachings, Pastor Rick teaches us why it's important for us to mature in our

faith.

He shows us how to continually grow and develop spiritually so we can become more like

Jesus.

Before we get started, we want to let you know that very generous friends of the ministry

are offering a hundred thousand dollar matching grant.

That means that every dollar you give right now to help daily hopes share the hope of

Jesus around the world will be matched up to one hundred thousand dollars.

Making your gift go twice as far.

You can find out more by going to PastorRick.com or by texting the word daily to 800-600-5,000-4.

Right now, here's Pastor Rick with Part 1 of a message called Building Character at Work.

Today I want us to look at how God uses your work to build character, your job, your career.

Now that's important because the fact is you're going to spend approximately 40% of your

life at work.

In other words, it's your job.

That's about a hundred and fifty thousand hours over your lifetime and surveys show that

about a third of all people say, I hate my job and other surveys show that nearly two-thirds

of people are in the wrong job.

You may not know this, but you can even like your job and still not be in the job that's

best suited for how God shaped you.
