    Sep 6 2025

    In Baháʼí writings, "Might" (or Izzat) refers to divine spiritual power and strength, not just physical power, that is available to believers who are aligned with God's Will and the teachings of Baháʼu'lláh. This spiritual might enables individuals and communities to overcome challenges, build civilization, and achieve spiritual victories by drawing on the confirmations of the Holy Spirit and the power of God's Word.

  • Names of God, Episode 2
    Aug 28 2025

    In the Baha’i faith, the names of God are considered qualities that describe aspects of God’s nature. All of creation reflects the attributes of God to some degree, and we humans are created to reflect these names. The names of God illumine our souls and refine the character of humankind.

    Welcome to Dawn Prayers. Today, we turn our hearts to the Names of God—each a jewel of His beauty, each a ray of His light. They whisper of His mercy, His justice, His love, His majesty. As we breathe these Names in prayer, may they awaken the divine qualities within us and draw us nearer to the One who is the Source of all being.

    We invite you to comment or make a request for a prayer.

  • From Estrangement to Connection
    Aug 24 2025

    In this episode, we turn our hearts to the healing power of prayer as we reflect on the journey from estrangement to connection, from separation to unity. The Bahá’í writings remind us that the divisions among humanity are not permanent walls but passing shadows, and that the light of God’s love can draw us together as one family. Through prayer, we open the door to reconciliation, understanding, and the deeper bonds that unite all souls in the spirit of oneness.

  • Names of God, Episode 1
    Aug 24 2025

    Welcome to Dawn Prayers. In this episode, we’ll turn our hearts to the many beautiful Names of God. Each Name is a window into His infinite attributes—like Compassionate, All-Knowing, Healer, Ever-Forgiving—reminders of how the divine presence touches every part of our lives. As we pray together, let us reflect on how these Names call us to embody love, mercy, and truth in our own actions, and draw nearer to the Source of all goodness.

  • Respect
    Aug 3 2025

    In the Bahá’í Faith, every soul is seen as a noble creation of God, worthy of dignity, kindness, and fairness. Bahá’u’lláh reminds us that “the earth is but one country and mankind its citizens.” Prejudice of any kind is condemned, and unity in diversity is celebrated—not as passive tolerance, but as an active commitment to uplift others and build a just and harmonious world.

    In Anishinaabe wisdom, respect—Mnaadendimowin—extends beyond humanity, embracing the land, water, air, and all living beings. It teaches reciprocity, humility, and the wisdom of listening with patience and acting with care. The bison, a symbol of this interconnectedness, reminds us that to live respectfully is to walk in balance, honoring both what we receive and what we give.

    Today, as we offer these prayers, we reflect on respect as a sacred bridge between cultures and faiths, a call to see each other as one family and the whole earth as one home.

    “Graciously aid me to serve Thy cause… Grant me communion with Thee in my loneliness. Thou hast created humanity from the same stock, and all mankind are sheltered beneath Thy tabernacle.”

    May this morning’s prayers help us clothe ourselves not in silks, but in courtesy, compassion, and reverence for all creation.

  • The Feast of Kamál, Perfection
    Jul 29 2025

    Welcome to Dawn Prayers, a space where hearts gather at daybreak to remember God, lift our spirits, and draw nearer to the One who is the source of all light.

    This episode is dedicated to the Feast of Kamál — Perfection. In the Bahá’í writings, perfection is not the absence of flaws. It is the radiant presence of virtue, purpose, and love in action. God created us so that we might know Him and love Him, and in that love, we find the strength to turn toward the light each day.

    Perfection is not a destination; it is a path — a path of striving to reflect divine attributes such as kindness, compassion, and justice, and to help build communities where every soul is uplifted. As one prayer reminds us: “No path have I trodden, nor any will I seek, but the path of Thy love.”

    At the hour of dawn, when the world is quiet, we remember that in Him are potentially revealed all the attributes and names of God. We are invited to lift our hearts above the present, and with eyes of faith, look toward the future — a future shaped by unity, justice, and the transforming power of His love.

    Join us now in prayer, as we refresh our spirits in His beauty and perfection.

  • Beyond the Veil: Life After Death in the Bahá’í Writings
    Jul 24 2025

    Welcome to Beyond the Veil: Life after Death in the Baha'i Writings. In this episode, we journey into the mystery of what happens to the soul when it leaves the body, how the next world is described in the Bahá’í Writings, and what it means to live a life that prepares us for that eternal journey.

    Drawing on the words of Bahá’u’lláh, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and Shoghi Effendi, we’ll reflect on the purpose of this life, the continuity of the soul, and the hope and reassurance these teachings offer us. Whether you’re grieving a loved one or seeking deeper understanding, may these words bring you peace and clarity.

    "The world beyond is as different from this world as this world is different from that of the child while still in the womb of its mother." — Bahá’u’lláh
