How can Christian educators teach effectively in different cultures? Here are winning principles drawn from educational theory and personal experience.
"A must-read book for all cross-cultural instructors"
"Drawing on decades of research and experience, the authors identify sources of bewilderment for both teachers and learners, then suggest a wealth of practical techniques with which to meet the challenges. Here is a 'must read' book for all cross-cultural instructors, whether novices or seasoned practitioners."
--Patricia M. Davis, Summer Institute of Linguistics, Dallas
"Christ's Commission is much broader than reaching the unreached. Jesus commands us to make disciples of all nations through teaching. Each person teaching in another culture will benefit from the principles and examples in this book."
--Jim Plueddemann, international director, SIM (Serving In Mission)
"Incarnational teaching is truly the strength of this book. It allows readers to reflect from both a teacher's and a learner's perspective. The book provides a deeper understanding of the importance, as Christian educators, of taking culture seriously. Readers will be challenged to reflect in ways that bring growth as a teacher as well as a Christian."
--Elizabeth Conde-Frazier, Claremont School of Theology
"The contents of this book must become functional knowledge for everyone who seeks to disciple the nations. I have been in a formal education setting for twenty years and have been developing ideas of my role as a teacher. After reading this book, I need to do a U-turn!"
--Julius Wong Loi Sing, Moody Graduate School
"Written with power, grace, and a wealth of wisdom, Teaching Cross-Culturally is essential reading for all Christian leaders who are called to teach the gospel of Jesus Christ in an ever-dynamically changing world."
--S. Steve Kang, Wheaton College
"Using sound missiological principles and timeless biblical truths, the Lingenfelters provide a truly Christian approach to teaching successfully in intercultural contexts."
