Abstract

Abstract The development of education in the contemporary era is marked by changes in the character of students, advances in digital technology, and increasing plurality of values and cultures. This condition presents challenges as well as opportunities for Christian Religious Education (PAK) in implementing relevant and contextual learning strategies. This study aims to describe the implementation of Christian Religious Education learning strategies, analyze its relevance to contemporary era education, and identify challenges faced in learning practices. This research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method, supported by analysis of various sources of scientific journals, academic books, and relevant educational documents. The results of the study show that PAK learning strategies that are contextual, participatory, and reflective have strong relevance in answering the needs of today's students. However, the implementation of the strategy still faces internal challenges, such as educator competence and limited methods, as well as external challenges in the form of technological developments, cultural change, and value pluralism. The main conclusion of this study emphasizes that the development of adaptive and contextual PAK learning strategies is an urgent need so that PAK continues to play a significant role in shaping the character and spirituality of students in the contemporary era.
