There is still space in the Wilmette Institute's course on The Covenant. The three-month e-learning course will start by reviewing the Covenant in Judaism, Christianity, and espcially Islam, turn to the Covenant of the Bab, then examine in detail Baha'u'llah's Covenant with `Abdu'l-Baha and the Administrative Order. Related subjects such as Covenant-breaking and the individual's relationship with the Covenant will be considered as well. Texts will include major works by Baha'u'llah, `Abdu'l-Baha, and Shoghi Effendi, as well as works about the Covenant such as Adib Taherzadeh's books.
The course will provide a systematic and thorough study of a very important subject for Baha'is and thus should prove of great use to those who take it. The cost is $150 for individuals and $300 for local study groups and the Institute has financial assistance available to those who need it. Readings will either be in common Baha'i books or will be available on line at the course's private web page. Discussion occurs via a web-based Forum. All students and groups will be assigned a mentor who will assist the learning process. For more information, go to http://www.wilmetteinstitute.us.bahai.org or email us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
