Improving Local Classes and Personal Deepening Efforts: The Role of
World Order Magazine
by Robert H. Stockman
Overview
This workshop taught the friends how to use World Order magazine
as a highly effective tool for personal and group study of the concepts
from the Bahá’í Writings and their application to
world events and issues.
Outline
1. World Order was created
by the National Spiritual Assembly of the Bahá’ís United States
to stimulate, inspire, and serve thinking people in their search to
find relationships between contemporary life and contemporary religious
teachings and philosophy and to address issues of broad social concern.
As such it contains many articles that are relevant to study of the
Faith and to explaining the Faith to people of capacity.
2. Most issues of World Order
are still in print and contain a goldmine of articles suitable for copying
for local institute courses and deepenings, if they can be found (which
is why we will offered finding aids).
3. World Order seeks to help
Bahá’ís learn to study the Faith deeply and relate it to the contemporary
world. It also wishes to develop new authors who can write about the
Faith.
