This newly expanded compilation prepared by the Research Department of the Universal House of Justice will serve as an invaluable guide for members of all families. Whether starting a family or a member of a well-established family unit, the reader will find a wealth of soul-stirring and thought-provoking passages to shed light on their path and illuminate the nature of their relationships with their loved ones.

Drawing on the writings of Bahá'u'lláh and the Báb, the writings and utterances of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, the writings of Shoghi Effendi and the messages of the Universal House of Justice, Family Life addresses the subjects of marriage, the equality of women and men, the raising of children, and more. The extracts in this new edition are organized according to subject matter and include a number of passages not available in previous editions.
