About: "A Cup of Tea" is about a fictitious character who meets Abdu’l-Baha through the portrait painter Juliet Thompson. Upper class, snobbish, and prejudiced, she is not prepared to change her life sufficiently to adopt Abdu’l-Baha’s teachings. Yet she is profoundly influenced by this imaginary meeting with Him. “A Cup of Tea” is written by Roger White and read by Anne Perry. (Download audio at 9starmedia.com/encounters-with-abdulbaha.)
