The author holds a Master's degrees in Christian Education from
Eden Seminary and in Nursing Education from Washington University,
St. Louis. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from
MacMurray College and a nursing certificate from Blessing Hospital.
Awards include: Curator's Award from University of Missouri, Ford
Foundation teaching internship, United States Public Health Service
Grant, and academic scholarships. She has been recognized by
Blessing nurses' alumni association as Nurse of the Year and
inducted into her Palmyra, Missouri school district's Academic Hall
of Fame. She was a missionary teacher for twenty years under the
Presbyterian Church USA and vocational and program agencies. From
1974 to 1978 she was a Nursing Instructor at the University of
Azarabadegan in Iran and from 1978 to 1988 she was a Christian
Education Teacher at Maridi Teacher Training Institute and the
first American woman to become Chair at their Department of
Religion. Marjorie White, a missionary teacher for over twenty
years, has written this book at the request of missionary schools
who want to train educators to serve in Muslim countries. The book
covers the personal perspectives and experiences in Iran during her
time of service and her own perspectives on relating to those of
the Muslim religion that she learned from interaction with her
Muslim students, friends and co-workers. The books of Moses were
the only text that she was allowed to use in her religious
education classes in both Sudan and Iran and this presentation is
fairly representative of what she taught. Parts of this book are
devoted to her use of the new teaching technique of using literary
methods to teach science and other non-literary subjects. This book
is timely, as it addresses today's new interest in teaching Bible
truths throughout school curriculum.
