This study discusses the development of students' Christian spirituality through Christian Religious Education (PAK) learning based on contextual theology. The purpose of the study is to analyze how the integration of contextual theological principles in the PAK curriculum, learning strategies, and the internalization of Christian values ​​can foster students' spirituality and character. The method used is descriptive qualitative, with data collection techniques in the form of semi-structured interviews, participant observation, and analysis of learning documents, including students' reflective journals. The results show that the integration of contextual theology in the curriculum enables learning that is relevant to students' experiences, while reflective strategies such as discussions, case studies, real-life experiences, and journals strengthen spiritual awareness. Christian values ​​such as love, justice, forgiveness, patience, and integrity have proven effective in shaping character and guiding students' moral actions.
