He is editor of the Journal of Bahá’í Studies, editor of the Wilfrid Laurier University Press Bahá’í Series, and author of more than 25 books. He was nominated this year for the Templeton Prize, which honors a living person who has made an exceptional contribution to affirming life’s spiritual dimension, whether through insight, discovery, or practical works. He and his wife Lucia live on a farm in Plant City and have four children and eight grandchildren.

Bahá’ís believe, additionally, in the oneness of humanity, the independent investigation of truth, the agreement between religion and science, and that there is only one God who created all of the major religions. More information is available at www.Bahai.org.
