The word character comes from a root word, which means, "to tear, cut into, engrave." When God calls us to follow Him, He also begins the process of building our character. Experiences and lessons, which are engraved into our souls will build our personalities, and influence our faith, our convictions, our desires, our action-our character. In Building Godly Character Ray Bentley takes us through a study of the life of David as an example of how God works in our lives to build His character in us. Ray Bentley is the senior pastor of Maranatha Chapel in San Diego, California. Maranatha serves 7,000 people weekly. He also hosts the daily Maranatha Radio program heard across the United States and around the world.
