From introducing the concept of God to toddlers to navigating teenage challenges, this anthology offers real-life insights grounded in the Bahá’í writings, making spiritual education both practical and meaningful.
Topics range from nurturing love for the Bahá’í Faith and teaching virtues of obedience, trustworthiness and moderation, to handling peer pressure, balancing work and home life, and preserving family sanctity.
