Abstract

Inclusive education is an approach that places all students, including those with special needs, in an equal and equitable education system. In the context of Christianity, inclusive education is not only a response to pedagogical needs, but also a manifestation of theological values such as love, justice, acceptance, and recognition of the dignity of every human being as the image and likeness of God (Imago Dei). This article analyzes inclusive education from a Christian perspective by reviewing the basic principles of inclusivity and pedagogy, the legal foundations, as well as those underlying its application. This research also reviews the role of churches and schools in forming inclusive educational communities, including in curriculum development, provision of infrastructure, and social-spiritual empowerment. The method used is a literature study of academic literature and biblical texts. The results of the study show that inclusive education in Christianity is not just a social obligation, but a deep call of faith to restore and embrace all of God's creation in its entirety. The Church and Christian educational institutions are required to be exemplary in building a humane and liberating education system.

Abstract

This research explores Smokol Tinutuan as one of the habits of the Minahasa people and also as a philosophy embraced by Minahasa people who living in North Sulawesi Province. In their daily lives, the culture of smokol (breakfast) or shared breakfast is integral to the Minahasa people (in local language call Tou Minahasa), not only in North Sulawesi but also wherever the Minahasa people have migrated, even abroad. The culture of smokol together with Tinutuan has become like a ritual for the Minahasa people. Unbeknownst to many, Smokol Tinutuan contains a philosophy that is deeply embedded in the Minahasa person's character, promoting values such as gratitude and harmonious living together. From these two values, I have drawn parallels with the values of the Kingdom of Heaven in the Bible. The philosophy of Smokol Tinutuan can be seen in several Biblical stories about the character of strong leaders. If this philosophy is developed in Christian Religious Education, it can serve as a foundation to build excellent character and mentality, much like the leaders in the Bible, such as Daniel and his three friends in Babylon, as well as the disciples of Christ with Christ by the shores of the Sea of Galilee.
