Hello everybody, welcome to Pastor Rick's Daily Hope. This is the Bible teaching ministry of Rick Warren.

Hey, we're so glad you're here with us today. We are continuing in a series called Talking About Stuff That Matters.

Now, in this series, Rick looks into the scriptures, and he's unpacking what it means to live in community, have real conversation about what matters most, and face discouragement with courage and faith.

It's honest, hopeful, so stay tuned. You won't want to miss a second.

Now, let's jump in for the final part of a message called

Don't Let Anyone Steal Your Identity.

Now, let me share something with you.

You've probably never thought of before.

You have one thing that nobody else in the entire world has.

You have an advantage over everybody else that nobody else has.

If you're a woman, you have this advantage over every other woman in the world.

And if you're a man, you have this advantage over every other man in the world.

You know what it is? They can't be you.

They can't be you.

Only you can be you. And God made you to be you only you can be you and god made you to be you not them so they will never be

you so whether it's a group of teenage girls stand in a circle in junior high and they're all

trying to be like each other, which is impossible.

They never will.

You need to go and say, you know what, none of you girls

can ever be like me.

You don't need to say that, but just think it.

Well, it's nice knowing you.
