Faith through radio. But he urges you to do all you can to always, however
small the reference you are able to make to it may be, clearly identify or
associate what you are giving out with Bahá'u'lláh. The time is too short now

firmly believe, find inner conviction, peace and security. So they have a right
to at least hear of the Cause as such! (From a letter dated 24 April 1949
written on behalf of Shoghi Effendi to an individual believer; The Compilation
of Compilations, Vol. II, The Use of Radio and Television in Teaching)
