In this sermon, guest speaker Osvaldo Castro shares his faith journey and the inspiration behind his book, 'The Second Violin.' Converted to Christianity in 1996, Osvaldo emphasizes the significance of harmony, service, and embracing roles that may seem secondary but are crucial for the community's overall functioning. He reflects on his personal struggles with feeling undervalued and finding purpose, relating these experiences to lesser-known biblical characters who played vital roles. Osvaldo encourages the congregation to find joy and fulfillment in serving God and others, regardless of recognition, and to maintain harmony and faith in their spiritual and everyday lives.
