Thank you so much for your positive feedback, Zachary! I’m happy to say the book was released by George Ronald Publisher this past May. You should see it if you click the link to their website at the bottom of the article.

The last quote is particularly poignant, encapsulating the essence of true spiritual leadership—service to humanity, humility, and dedication to justice. His answer to being asked whether he was the Messiah is a powerful reminder of the qualities we should all aspire to: unity, compassion, and sincerity in our actions. This insight into ‘Abdu’l-Bahá’s character is inspiring, and I’m eagerly awaiting the release of the book (is there a link?)!

What a novel concept these days. Any specific suggestions on how to hold people to their words? I’m referring mostly o Trump and his ardent followers. We can pray for them that they see the light or truth. Time is a-wasting I know. But we should be able to join together in some way to make it less likely that a second Trump presidency comes to pass. Peace from a Catholic perspective. Jim Lein
