TWO BOOKS TO HELP ONE BECOME
A BETTER TEACHER OF THE FAITH!
Exir Publishing is pleased to offer two books on teaching the Bahá'í Faith: "A
Privilege So Priceless" and "Responding". Though each can be read on its own, the books are considered "companion" volumes as each is based on different sections of a popular workshop on teaching the Faith given by the author in several countries.
What is being said about A Privilege So Priceless and Responding
by diverse Bahá'ís residing in different parts of the world:
Commenting on Responding, one early reader wrote, "Let
me say that this is a fantastic book and will be a great resource for
Bahá'ís. I'm certain that many will value this work immensely." Other
early readers in several countries, describing answers to various questions
covered in Responding, said: "very convincing", "easily
understandable and coherent". "I found... answers to be very convincing and
logical, and appreciated...[the] thorough footnotes." Another reader felt
that the insight, sensitivity, and thorough research applied by the author
to so many challenging questions sets a standard that will be difficult to
surpass. Two other readers said: "I cannot wait to get a copy once it is
published." "It is a major contribution to Bahá'í reference works!"
Regarding A Privilege So Priceless, an early reader
especially appreciated how the book discusses and then removes blocks which
believers may have about teaching the Faith, as well as how the book
focuses on seekers in the teaching process. A reader in another country commented,
"Overall, I like the style that the book is written in.... Key in this is
the use of historical examples from within the Cause, which strengthened
[points made]...in a simultaneously reinforcing and inspiring manner, and the
use of quotes alongside commentary.... This kind of book is really an
important step in Bahá'í literature and I am honestly grateful for the
opportunity to have read a bit of it." One reader felt the book conveys
wisdom, empathy for challenges encountered in teaching, and practical advice.
Readers have described A Privilege So Priceless and Responding
as "a great job", remarkable especially for their depth of content
and breadth of subject matter, and as a wonderful assistance and service
for readers. Exir Publishing believes both volumes should prove to be
valuable assets in any Bahá'í's personal library.
