<![CDATA[Abstract: Against the background of the lack of enthusiasm for student learning, and the lack of attention from the Christian religious education teacher to the learning of Christian religious education, which has been described, the problem is formulated; what is meant by the role of the christian religious education teacher, the way the christian religious education teacher carries out his role in the growth of student faith, as well as the role of the christian religious education teacher in the process of growing student faith. This study aims to determine the role of the Christian religious education teacher in the faith growth of grade III students and VI Lempelero Salvation Army elementary school. The method used in this research is qualitative. The samples taken were 15 students and 1 teacher. The results of the study show that the role of the Christian religion teacher can change the character of students' bad habitual behavior, such as; lazy to pray, do not like going to school during Christian religious education lessons to become Christian character and good behavior, students are more diligent in coming to school and like to pray and read the Bible before starting lessons, thus a Christian religious education teacher has the character of Christ, not only rather than transferring their knowledge, instilling their faith in Christ by guiding and directing and encouraging students at school. If this role is carried out properly, it will have a positive impact on the growth of students' faith.
