About this episode
Your character is being shaped right now. In this episode, John Ortberg invites you to consider the quiet truth we all feel: we’re always becoming someone. Whether it’s intentional or accidental, today you will change. Drawing from Matthew 6:33 and insights from C.S. Lewis, this teaching explores how to seek first the Kingdom of God in a world of noise, distraction, and drift. If you’ve ever felt stuck, aimless, or overwhelmed by your own habits—this one's for you. You’ll walk away inspired, challenged, and reminded that change is not only possible—it’s inevitable. The question is, what kind of person are you becoming?
