The Baha’i Faith is a recognized independent world religion established by Bahá?u’lláh in the 19th century in Persia but is now attracting increasing attention and a growing number of followers in the US and around the world as people search for practical spiritual solutions for their lives. It is the second most widespread of the world’s independent religions in terms of the number of countries where adherents live.
Baha’i teaches the essential worth of all religions, the oneness of God, and the unity of all people, openly rejecting notions of racism and nationalism. This class will introduce participants to a thoroughly inclusive religion, which accepts the divinity and sanctity of all Faiths.
We will look at the teachings and principles given by Baha‘u’llah (1817-1892), whom Baha’is around the world regard as the Messenger of God for this day. We will also look at how the faith is administered, community building in the US and around the world today, and the Baha’i vision of an unfolding divine plan for the future.
