(Unpublished manuscript—copyright protected Baker Publishing Group) Foreword They are out there, but they are few and far between. People who bring joy to any and every situation; the ones who refuse to take life as it comes and instead redefine it based on their faith in God and daily choice to be a life-giving person. These individuals are so much more than the “life of the party” or “fun to be around” or a “peacemaker.” Their words always seem to encourage you somehow, and their actions always speak louder than their words. These God-given friends make you reconsider your own life and how you’re living it; they inspire you with their contagious attitude to be more grateful and more hopeful in every area of your life. They are people like my friend Rick Bezet. Rick is one of those guys with an irrepressible passion for life—someone I simply love being around. He is so genuinely positive that I always feel lighter after talking with him or hearing him speak. In fact, he brings light wherever he goes— both illuminating everything and everyone around him while also lessening the weight they often feel from life’s burdens. 11 Rick Bezet, Real Love in an Angry World Baker Books, a division of Baker Publishing Group, © 2017. Used by permission. (Unpublished manuscript—copyright protected Baker Publishing Group) Foreword Rick also challenges me to see the truth of God’s Word in dynamic new ways. He is truly a breath of fresh air. That’s why I’m so thankful you’re holding this book. Rick has taught me something we all need to learn and to live by: life isn’t what happens to you; it’s how you respond to what happens to you. This is especially true when it comes to your relation- ships and responding to people—not just your loved ones and other important people in your life, but everyone with whom you come in contact. As followers of Jesus, we’re all called to be life-giving light-bearers, but unfortunately, we sometimes allow the cultural darkness around us to diminish our impact. We want to be positive, hopeful, and encouraging, but the negativism and critical spirit of our age feel overwhelming. You don’t have to go far to experience this friction. You see it in the news, observe it in politics, encounter it on blogs and social media sites, and face it in your community, work- place, and neighborhood. The culture around us has become so toxic, so opinionated, and in many cases, so downright mean that it has polluted our spirits and caused our hearts to be guarded. Many people have resigned themselves to the fact that the only way to survive is to fight back. So we engage in the Facebook comment war, let the political battles ignite our rage, withdraw from people we once called friends, and at the very least, quietly form unhealthy opinions about others in our hearts. And before long, we too become toxic, defensive, resentful, bitter, and vengeful. But this is not who God calls us to be, and it’s definitely not the example we see in the life of Christ. As followers of Jesus, we are all called to respond a different way, a better way, and I believe that God wants to use Rick’s experiences, 12 Rick Bezet, Real Love in an Angry World Baker Books, a division of Baker Publishing Group, © 2017. Used by permission. (Unpublished manuscript—copyright protected Baker Publishing Group) Foreword story, and wisdom to help us live this life of love. More than ever, if we are to rise above the hatred simmering all around us, we need the life principles Rick teaches in this book. I know that’s a tall order. Few books deliver on their prom- ise to improve your life. Too often, books contain a lot of hype and spin and too little relevant substance and practical application. Many authors know how to tell us what sounds good but fail to share what they’ve tested in the hard trenches of daily life. But that’s not the case here. If you take Rick’s message to heart, reflect on the truth of his teaching, laugh as hard as I know he will make you laugh, and apply the truths of God’s Word, then I guarantee you’ll learn how to be a person who brings light and life wherever you go. You will know how to share Real Love in an Angry World.

(Unpublished manuscript—copyright protected Baker Publishing Group) 1 Truth and Love A couple of years ago, my dad was diagnosed with pancre- atitis. He’s healthy now, but for about a year, he was quite ill and I traveled to visit him as often as I could. During one visit, the doctors informed me that Dad wasn’t going to live much longer. Maybe only a few hours. Dad is one of the funniest men I have ever known. You never know what he’s going to say! But this was a serious moment. “When you go in there today,” the doctors told me, “you need to speak to him like this is the last time you’ll ever see him.” My head was spinning when I entered the room. I was thinking about all the important things I wanted to tell him before I said my last good-bye. In that moment, I felt respon- sible to express my love and respect for him, to thank him for leading and loving me. So I did. I did it right! I honored my father in what I believed were the final moments of his life.

YOU WON’T LIMP OR STUMBLE AS YOU RUN.’ “ Proverbs 4:12 ne of the worst things to happen to a runner when in a race is to develop a limp. Even worse than that is falling over. In this proverb, life is presented as a Orace in which we are runners. It suggests that a commitment to seek wisdom, to listen to the wise counsel of others (seniors and sensitive peers), to consider options, to gather information, to wait, to act, to be diligent, will result in progress, despite apparent setbacks. Living by wise pointers will mean that we avoid pitfalls, helping us not to limp and stumble along. The fruit will be development and steady progress as we run the race of life. Andrew Rashford-Hewitt, ‘101 Proverbs for Life’ This ‘Training Manual’ has been specifically prepared to train youth in churches and mosques in Malawi. The reason behind is to ensure young people lead a good life, be happy and to get the best out of life. This publication intends to promote better communication between young people and their parents, faith leaders, peers and the world at large.

  • 12 Signs of Love
    12 Signs of Love Notes from talks delivered by Tom Price at the Bahá’í Summer School in Finland 2014 These are personal notes taken while listening to this talk. They do not reflect the whole talk, may very well include misunderstandings, for sure does not cover all that was said during the talk, conveys the subjects and his reasoning in a much more condense form than the talk itself, and the text is my text reflecting what I understood to have been conveyed. The notes do not capture some of the stories told; neither do they convey the humor of Tom Price when delivering his talks. So at best these notes are very limited but hopefully helpful in some way. Introduction Tom Price began by reading excerpts from the letter of the Universal House of Justice dated 10th of July 2014. A sporting contest, even one on such a scale as this, cannot obscure the severity of the challenges that confront humankind. But in the weeks to come, we hope that observers everywhere--especially the youth of the world--will take heart from the many examples of teamwork, fair play, valour, and earnest striving that are sure to surface in the tournament. God willing, they will aspire to show those same qualities in their lives, in service to their communities, and in the promotion of peace. Whether labouring for the elimination of every trace of racism and discrimination, championing the equality of women and men, or seeking to advance justice, the efforts of every member of the human family are necessary.
