Our Seven Families explores the value of human social life – why we need human connections. Drawing on her experience as a social scientist and on insights derived from a deep study of the Bahá’í Sacred Writings, Elaine McCreary offers a fresh perspective on human affairs, revealing new hope and opportunities for action.
Her analysis expands our conception of the nature and range of human relationships, stresses the link between spiritual activities and social transformation, and suggests creative practical solutions for restoring a sense of true and loving fellowship, personal well-being and security. She skillfully weaves together the threads of a rich tapestry of social possibilities, identifying elements essential for the creation of a future society characterized by peace, diversity and justice, a society that is bound to be radically different from any established in the past.
