Welcome to Sifter of Dust! We are a small group of Philadelphia-based Baha’is who felt that this marvelous religion needed to be shared with the world more broadly, using all the modern tools by which people do that kind of thing. We thought a lot about the tone we wanted to strike. We wanted to be fair-minded and honest in sharing our religion, but also let our enthusiasm shine through. We wanted to take an approach that was always respectful of the need for people to have space when exploring a religion. We wanted to speak to our common humanity, all of us, all around the world, and challenged ourselves to present our faith in a rational way that anyone could understand. And we wanted to uplift, inspire, and inform anyone who came to our site.
The result is Sifter of Dust. May it become a forum where all people can learn about Baha’u’llah and the astounding faith He founded in a manner that is open, honest, and faithful to the spirit of the sacred Gift that He has given us all.
