Teachers of the English language, about half of them proclaimed Christians, examine how Christian English language teachers in non-English speaking countries integrate their spiritual
identities and the pedagogy, and grapple with the dilemmas created when their faith agendas conflict with their professional ethic of respect for host countries and students. Among their topics
are missionaries and their critics, historical and current realities of English and education in anglophone Africa, the English language and the word of God, classroom guidelines for teachers
with conviction, and the spiritual ecology of second-language pedagogy. Discussion questions and responses to essays are included. Annotation 穢2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
