The Family Virtues Guide is subtitled, Simple Ways to Bring out the Best in our Children and Ourselves
by Linda Kavelin-Popov with Dan Popov, Ph. D. and John Kavelin
One virtue per week x 52, this book provides a simple framework for your family, your Bahá’à school, or even your Assembly to study a wide range of virtues.
The section for each virtue has seven parts: a quotation (many, but not all are from the Bahá’à Writings), a definition, a WHY practice, a HOW to practice, a What would it look like, Signs of Success & failure, and an affirmation.
To explore the themes of this book further, consider getting the matching Family Virtues Cards, the Classroom Virtues Cards, or the new Baha’i Family Virtues Cards.
