Second Fiddles
Author: Todd V. Lewis
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 164258309X
Category : Bibles
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
Famed conductor and composer Leonard Bernstein once said, "The second fiddle. I can get plenty of first violinists, but to find someone who can play the second fiddle with enthusiasm-that's a problem. And if we have no second fiddle, we have no harmony." Instrumental music would be extremely boring if "first" instruments existed alone. Certainly, you would have a clear melody, but the supportive "second" and "third" instruments provide sounds that offer a much more beautiful "harmony" to any presentation. Second Fiddles is a variable week Bible study that explores the character of biblical persons who "played" secondary roles to others in primary leadership roles. Each chapter focuses on a "second" and "third" supporting player who helped the leader achieve his/her mission. Each chapter also has takeaway questions with insightful opportunities to apply biblical truth. This Bible study reminds us that there are more "second fiddles" in life than "first violins," and biblical characters offer a model for us to emulate as we discover that God frequently uses "sidekicks" and "background" characters to further His kingdom. Get ready to discover your own "second fiddle" contributions to God's wondrous symphony of grace and mercy. Todd V. Lewis is a professor and department chair emeritus from the Department of Communication Studies at Biola University in La Mirada, California. After teaching at Biola for forty-one years, he retired to the West Valley of Phoenix, Arizona in 2015. Currently, he is an adjunct professor of communication at Arizona Christian University in Phoenix, Arizona. He has a BA degree in speech communication from Biola University (1972), a master's degree in communication from the Ohio State University (1974), and a PhD in speech communication from Louisiana State University (1980). Todd is married, has two married sons, and three grandchildren. Oh, and Todd played third trumpet in his middle school band.
