There has been an increased interest in exploring the relationship of faith and language teaching and learning over the past decade as practitioners and scholars in various parts of the world have begun a discussion about the possible role and impact of a teacher’s and students’ faith in the language classroom. The proposed volume intends to continue this exploration by adding a data-based research dimension to the topic. The editors have been part of language teaching conferences and publications where such discussion has occurred, and would like to invite colleagues from every area of applied linguistics and language teaching to contribute to this anthology to be published by an international publisher. At this stage we are calling for statements of intention by potential contributors (accompanied by a short abstract – see below) so that we can prepare a book proposal in order to formally approach publishers.
