On October 29 and 30, 2019, the Bahá'í community invites you to join in celebration of the Bicentenary of the Birth of the Báb (the Gate), the Forerunner of Bahá'u'lláh. The Gate of Heaven Podcast is an audio-only version of the Gate of Heaven Video Diary, a series of storytelling videos posted on YouTube in 2019 to accompany the release of my new album, Gate of Heaven. The diary tells the story of the Báb and His heroic followers, as recorded by Nabíl in his 19th-century chronicle, The Dawn-Breakers. For more resources visit gateofheavendiary.com
