Propelled by forces generated both within and outside the Bahá’í community, the peoples of the earth can be seen to be moving from divergent directions, closer and closer to one another, towards what will be a world civilization so stupendous in character that it would be futile for us to attempt to imagine it today. As this centripetal movement of populations accelerates across the globe, some elements in every culture, not in accord with the teachings of the Faith, will gradually fall away, while others will be reinforced.

HearTheWritings.com is pleased to present The December 12th Message to All National Spiritual Assemblies from The Universal House of Justice.

In this message, The Universal House of Justice shares with “all National Spiritual Assemblies and their training institutes further guidance on the implementation of the main sequence of courses and those that branch off from it.”

This is an indespensible message for all believers wishing to gain greater insight into the institute process. The House of Justice addresses the concepts of “The Path of Service”, “Coordination”, “Classes for Children”, and “Educational Materials”.

The 2011 Ridván Message

“let every believer look to ‘Abdu’l-Baha… Tirelessly, He expounded the teachings in every social space… Uncompromising in defence of the truth, yet infinitely gentle in manner, He brought the universal divine principles to bear on the exigencies of the age. To all without distinction… He imparted love, wisdom, comfort, whatever the particular need. While elevating their souls, He challenged their assumptions, reoriented their perspectives, expanded their consciousness, and focused their energies. He demonstrated by word and deed such compassion and generosity that hearts were utterly transformed. No one was turned awaY…. Set His example before your eyes and fix your gaze upon it; let it be your instinctive guide in your pursuit of the aim of the Plan.”
~The Universal House of Justice


HearTheWritings.com is pleased to present the 2011 Ridván Message from The Universal House of Justice.

The Universal House of Justice welcomes in this most joyous Ridván season with this message of love. Addressing the Bahá’í world they encourage and prepare the believers to meet the challenges and opportunities present in this current and newly inaugurated Five Year Plan.

The House of Justice addresses the turmoil present in the political, social, and economic affairs of humanity. It directs the community of the Greatest Name to play its part in combatting these ills by “building capacity for effective action amongst the diverse populations of the planet”.

The beloved House of Justice offers the framework, goals and confirmations that, over the course of the next five years, will steer the community as it strives to fulfill the sacred obligation to “convey to others the spark of faith.”

“Conscious of their high calling, confident in the society-building power which their Faith possesses, they press forward, undeterred and undismayed, in their efforts to fashion and perfect the necessary instruments wherein the embryonic World Order of Bahá’u’lláh can mature and develop. It is this building process, slow and unobtrusive, to which the life of the world-wide Bahá’í Community is wholly consecrated, that constitutes the one hope of a stricken society.” ~Shoghi Effendi


HearTheWritings.com is pleased to present The December 28th 2010 Message from The Universal House of Justice. Just as we had finished and released our version of The 2010 Ridván Message The House of Justice released this powerful message addressing the key features of the next five year plan. Naturally, with its significant implications to the work of the Cause, we had to release an audio version of it as well. We are pleased to offer it to you here, now.

(The Advent of Divine Justice, The 2010 Ridvan Message, and The December 28th Message.)

The House of Justice refers extensively to both the 2010 Ridván Message and The Advent of Divine Justice in the December 28th 2010 Message so we thought we would give away several bundles for those who help us share our new release.

““There is no time to lose. There is no room left for vacillation. Multitudes hunger for the Bread of Life. The stage is set. The firm and irrevocable Promise is given. God’s own Plan has been set in motion… Such an opportunity is irreplaceable.” ~Shoghi Effendi


HearTheWritings.com is pleased to present The 2010 Ridván Message from The Universal House of Justice. As we near the last few months of the current plan we felt impelled to create an audio version of this weighty message to share with the community in the hopes that those who take the opportunity to study it deeper might be galvanized in their efforts to serve the Cause. Since this message is so critical to the growth of the Faith, and the timing so critical, we are offering the MP3 download for FREE. If you find this to be of value to you please take a moment and click the “tweet” button and/or the “like” button to share it on Facebook. We want to make this audio version as widely available as possible. Both buttons are at the top of this post. Thank you for helping spread the word.

In this weighty message, The Universal House of Justice condenses the last four years of progress in the Bahá’i community and recounts the marvelous victories that have been won as well as focusing the community’s attention on those goals that have yet to be achieved.

Special care is taken to outline the power present in the believers moving away from a formulaic understanding of the guidance explored in the Ruhi institute to a more holistic integration of that material into their everyday lives. Those laboring on the front lines will find themselves better equipped to build genuine and lasting relationships and to confidently and effectively share the healing message of Bahá’u’lláh in a language addressed to the heart.

The Supreme Body builds upon the successes of the four core activities by focusing our attention on the concept of relationship building and the necessity of integrating the greater community in the transformative work of the Faith through programs of social action.

An exceptionally powerful message at once weighty and inspiring is a must read for all believers wishing to “take a decisive part in building the Kingdom of God on earth”.

Blessings and delays

Some of you might be wondering why there has been such deafening silence here since the release of our first title a couple months ago… Well… God saw fit to bless me and my wife with a beautiful daughter… Lua Michele Rezin was born on April 3rd and has been the focus of all of our attention. She is amazing and I must say that spending time getting to know this new soul reinforces my resolve to create this resource not only for the larger community but also for her.
