This offering is a compilation of lesser-known Bible characters, their stories, and life examples taken from each. The format makes it even easier to digest and will keep the reader looking for what is next. Each entry is structured the following way: the honoree for each chapter is identified along with the number of verses that s/he appears in the Bible;the "Backstory" or the general context that gives rise to the events surrounding the lesser-known's application to daily life and living;the related scripture forming the basis for the lesson(s) to be considered;a cite or cites for further Scriptural study on this individual;the big one: A related set of takeaways for application. Each is carefully drafted to comport with the Scriptures; andfootnotes citing proofs that can be readily accessed by those who are interested in deeper study.There are important life lessons exhibited by somewhat obscure Bible characters that are unaddressed in any other offering. A review of available topics in bookstores or a search for offerings online will show that there are many opportunities to learn from the Bible's better-known characters. Examples of those would include Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, Ruth, David, Peter, the apostle Paul, and many others. While one may presume that hours spent learning from those examples are well-spent, there are within God's Word so many other accounts of individuals--lesser-known men and women.Recognizing and applying the truth of 2 Timothy 3:16: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching," it follows that among the many lesser-known Bible characters there are also valuable examples from which we might learn.An opportunity to do just that is what one may expect from these pages and no others.
