Religion should be the cause of Love and Affection

Something which can sometimes be forgotten is that religion should unite all hearts – this is the third principle of Bahá’u’lláh.

Unity of religion and the purpose of religion was the subject for discussion at a ‘Time to Unwind’ prayer and meditation session in Newbury recently.
