What You Can Do to Better the World
The world is facing so many problems it’s difficult to know what one person can do.
The process of community building that members of the Bahá’í Faith and their friends are engaged in throughout the world, opens the opportunity for each person to become involved.
The times in which we live are characterized by two powerful processes: disintegration and integration. We see examples of disintegration every time we turn on the news. If we look more closely we can also identify examples of integration, where people are working for racial amity, gender equity, intercultural understanding, moral education, protection of the environment, and many other worthy causes.
Each and every person has the possibility of contributing to the process of integration. Unfortunately, many remain spectators, observing and lamenting what is happening without taking any action to better the situation. Often they do so either because they don’t know what to do, or feel that due to the magnitude of the problems facing society, their efforts would have little effect.
Bahá’u’lláh has revealed teachings that give us a clear vision of the future society characterized by unity, justice, and peace that we are called to construct.
The Universal House of Justice gives concrete guidance on the most effective actions we can take at this moment. It calls us to participate in a worldwide program of community building, grounded in the moral and spiritual education of different age groups – children, junior youth, youth, and adults. It further provides a proven curriculum, including materials and training, open to anyone interested in participating in this magnificent undertaking.
As this program expands in a neighborhood or small community, ties of friendship and solidarity deepen, and conversations turn to the social and economic challenges faced by the community and actions that the inhabitants can take to improve the situation.
Those who join the effort become part of a planetary network, receiving guidance and support in their efforts to contribute to a better world.
The book integrates easily-understood explanations with relevant quotes from Shoghi Effendi and Messages from the Universal House of Justice, including numerous quotes from the Messages of December 29, 2015 and December 30, 2021.
The book helps you to grow in your faith in spite of all that is happening around us, providing constructive solutions in response to the forces that seem to be destroying the planet.
If you want a fundamental understanding of what is happening in society, combined with practical steps you can take to contribute to a better world, you will love this book.
Discover today what you can do to respond to today’s social problems.
