Abstract

Character education is a fundamental aspect of human development, particularly within the Christian educational context, where moral formation is inseparable from biblical teachings. This study examines how the Batak cultural philosophy of Dalihan Na Tolu can be integrated into family, based Charistian character education. Employing a qualitative literature review approach, the research analyzes twenty validated sources, including scholarly journals and books, to explore the interplay between local cultural values and Christian moral formation. Findings indicate that the principles of Dalihan Na Tolu, namely, somba marhula-hula, manat mardongan tubu, and elek marboru, resonate with Christian virtues such as respect, responsibility, and relational harmony, and can effectively complement family, based character education. Integrating these local values within a Christian framework provides a contextualized and culturally sensitive approach to character formation, enabling families to cultivate virtues aligned with both cultural norms and biblical principles. This study contributes to thr discourse on contextualized Christian education by demonstrating how indigenous cultural systems can reinforce moral and spiritual development in family settings.

Abstract

The Rongkong area in North Luwu carries historical wounds due to the DII/TI rebellion, leaving prolonged social and spiritual trauma. This study aims to critically analyze the role of the Church and Christian Religious Education (CRE) in the process of trauma healing, social reconciliation, and sowing hope post-conflict. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were collected through literature review, in-depth interviews with church leaders and community members, as well as limited participatory observation. The study is grounded in the theoretical framework of memory theology (Johann Baptist Metz and Paul Ricoeur) and critical pedagogy (Paulo Freire), emphasizing the importance of collective memory and liberating education within the context of historical wounds. The findings indicate that the church acts as a healing community through liturgy, pastoral care, and social advocacy, while CRE serves as a transformative space that builds historical awareness, spirituality of forgiveness, and intergenerational participation in reconciliation. This article offers theological-pedagogical reflections and contextual praxis for the church and Christian educators in nurturing memory and fostering hope within post-conflict communities.

Abstract

This study examines the didactic reconstruction of Christian Religious Education based on digital technology and local wisdom as an effort to overcome the challenges of the Strawberry Vulnerable Generation. The research uses a qualitative approach with a literature study method. The results of the study show that the Strawberry Generation requires an adaptive, contextual, and transformative model of Christian Religious Education. The integration of digital technology through e-learning platforms, mobile applications, social media, and interactive media has been proven to be able to increase student involvement in the learning process. However, the use of technology needs to be balanced with strengthening local wisdom values such as mutual cooperation, solidarity, respect for the community, and contextual spirituality so that students are not trapped in individualism and instant culture. The didactic reconstruction of Christian Religious Education that was developed emphasizes the synergy between digital innovation and the preservation of local cultural values as the foundation for the formation of resilient Christian character. This research contributes to the development of Christian Religious Education learning models that are relevant to the digital native generation while strengthening faith and cultural identity in the digital era. Thus, Christian Religious Education based on digital technology and local wisdom can be a strategic approach in building a generation that is adaptive, critical, characterful, and resistant to the complexities of modern life.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of Educaplay-based interactive learning media integrated with local wisdom in increasing students' interest in learning Christian Religious Education at SMAN 3 Palangka Raya. The research uses a quantitative approach with a quasi-experimental design. The research subjects consisted of two groups, namely class XI-9 as an experimental group that used Educaplay media based on local wisdom and class XI-11 as a control group that used conventional learning methods. The integration of local wisdom is carried out through the presentation of materials, illustrations, and learning activities that raise local cultural values, so that learning becomes more contextual and close to students' life experiences. The research data was collected through a learning interest questionnaire that has been tested for validity and reliability. The results of the analysis showed that the use of Educaplay-based interactive learning media and local wisdom significantly increased students' interest in learning. The average learning interest score of the experimental group increased from 49.35 in the pretest to 63.30 in the posttest, while the control group only increased from 51.75 to 53.80. Hypothesis tests using paired sample t-test and independent sample t-test showed significant differences between the two groups. This study concludes that Educaplay-based interactive learning media combined with local wisdom is effective in increasing interest in learning Christian Religious Education. These findings recommend the development of contextual and local culture-based digital learning media to create a more interesting, relevant, and meaningful learning process for students.

Abstract

This article examines the relationship between ecopedagogy and the concept of sangserekan as a relational foundation that supports the integrity of creation within contemporary Christian education. Ecopedagogy is understood as an educational approach that encourages critical awareness of ecological crises, the development of ethical responsibility, and the formation of transformative practices that nurture just relationships between humans and the environment. Sangserekan, a local wisdom tradition emphasizing reciprocity, cooperation, and communal interconnectedness, offers significant potential to enrich theological reflection and pedagogical practice within Christian settings. Through a review of relevant literature and theological–pedagogical reflection, this article proposes the integration of these two perspectives to create a framework that emphasizes not only cognitive learning but also character formation, ecological spirituality, and relational consciousness. This integrated approach can help learners understand their vocation as stewards of creation, cultivate solidarity with others and the natural world, and build stronger commitments to sustainability. Thus, ecopedagogy and sangserekan provide a relevant and contextually grounded relational foundation for churches and Christian educational institutions seeking to address global ecological challenges and promote just and sustainable learning practices.

Abstract

This study examines the historical transformation, institutional dynamics, and contemporary challenges of church-based education in Tapanuli, North Sumatra, Indonesia, from 1950 to 2024. Although missionary education played a foundational role in the development of formal schooling and Christian leadership among the Batak, the post-independence trajectory of church schools has received comparatively limited attention as a process of institutional transformation. This study employed a qualitative historical research design using archival documents, published historical sources, oral histories, field observations, and material evidence. The findings demonstrate that church-based education underwent three major transformations: the transition from missionary education to an Indigenous church-based educational system after independence; institutional professionalization and adaptation to national educational structures; and contemporary transformation in response to educational competition, technological change, professional standards, and cultural expectations. The study further demonstrates that Batak communities actively appropriated educational institutions as instruments of literacy, social mobility, leadership formation, and “hamajuon” (social progress). However, tensions remain between inherited Western educational epistemologies and the need to strengthen Batak cultural and Indigenous knowledge within Christian education. The study concludes that the future relevance of church schools depends on integrating theological identity, educational quality, technological innovation, and culturally responsive pedagogy. Church schools should therefore be understood as dynamic institutions of educational, ecclesial, cultural, and social transformation.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between students’ perceptions and learning attitudes in Christian Religious Education (CRE), with particular attention to the cultural context in which religious learning takes place. A quantitative correlational approach was employed to analyze data from 32 respondents. Students’ perceptions were treated as the independent variable, while learning attitudes constituted the dependent variable. Data were analyzed using Pearson correlation and simple linear regression. The results indicate a moderate positive relationship between students’ perceptions and learning attitudes, with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.5432. The coefficient of determination (R² = 0.295) indicates that students’ perceptions statistically accounted for 29.5% of the variance in learning attitudes. The regression model was expressed as Y = 10.918 + 0.437X, with a t value of 3.5432 and a significance level of 0.00132, indicating a statistically significant relationship. The findings suggest that students who hold more positive perceptions of the learning process tend to demonstrate more positive learning attitudes. Within CRE, this relationship should be understood in connection with students’ cultural experiences, local values, social relationships, and everyday realities. Culture was not tested as an independent statistical variable; rather, it functioned as a contextual lens for interpreting the findings. The study highlights the importance of culturally responsive and contextual CRE that connects Christian teachings with students’ lived experiences while supporting meaningful learning and character formation.
