Thank you most sincerely for sharing your amazing story. Thank you for your selfless services towards the betterment of mankind.
I really liked how he opened with describing the time he grew up in. I also remember those times. No cell phones, no CZcams, no color TV, rotary dial phones that hung on the wall, no credit cards, no 4K movies or even DVD for that case, NO INTERNET. Sometimes, I don't even know how we survived. Me & my brothers would LITERALLY go outside & sword fight with sticks, & try to skip rocks at the pond at the park. That's right, no TikTok. Those were the good old days, sometimes.
What an illumined soul!. Thank you for your beautifully said story. 🌹
Thank you for sharing your favorite stories and prophesies. Especially the 'new name' prophesy. I also enjoyed the poem.
I realy enjoyed this episode of the Baha'i Faith Modern Perspective. Thank you Dr. Gottlieb for sharing your spiritual journey, its always wonderful to hear how different souls come to hear and adhere to the Baha'i Faith.
Thank you Steven for sharing your story. To read more stories like this one, I'm thankful to have a copy of your book, "Once to Every Man & Nation: Stories about Becoming a Baha'i". It's a pleasure to hear your story - it never gets old 🙂. Just a footnote for the introduction: the pronunciation of Yakima is Ya- kim- ah not Yakeemah.
Baha’i Happy New Year

I dinot about bahai buy it is hidden faith
What is your chert o pert comment
Not very hidden. Here it is, all over CZcams.
The Bahai Faith is certainly obscure and not many people know of it for it's only 180 years old. But it'll get there when the whole world will know and embrace the message of Oneness
