Abstract

The curriculum is a major component of the education system that determines the direction and quality of the teaching and learning process at various educational levels. This study aims to analyze the stages of curriculum development in Christian education and to identify its relevance and challenges in the current social and cultural context. The research adopts a qualitative descriptive method, utilizing literature review and document analysis to explore theoretical frameworks, best practices, and contextual applications. The findings indicate that effective curriculum development in Christian education involves three main stages: formulating content aligned with the vision and mission of Christian education, designing learning activities that foster students’ active participation and spiritual growth, and determining evaluation methods that comprehensively measure the achievement of learning objectives. Results also show that integrating Christian faith values with learning materials enhances contextual relevance and holistic student development, although challenges remain in adapting to the rapidly changing social and cultural environment. This study underscores the need for continuous curriculum review and adaptation to ensure that Christian education remains transformative and impactful.

Abstract

Character education is an important aspect in forming a young generation that is not only academically superior, but also has integrity and strong moral values. YWAM (Youth With A Mission) Sentani Papua is one of the educational institutions that integrates academic and spiritual learning through a discipleship program. However, the success of this program is highly dependent on the quality of staff mentoring for students. This study aims to examine how staff mentoring can be optimized in the formation of student character, as well as identify the challenges faced and strategies for increasing the capacity of mentors. The data shows that most staff do not have specific training in character education, which has an impact on the effectiveness of discipleship. Therefore, ongoing training and parental involvement are needed to support the holistic character formation process. Routine evaluation of program implementation is also needed so that it can be continuously improved. This study is expected to contribute to the development of character education in a faith-based educational environment
