This article discusses the relationship between Christian education, globalization, and civil society. First it addresses how young people view globalization. Another point of reference is civil society. The data (from Germany) show that young people are concerned about globalization but that many of them appear to be unclear what to think of it. The author argues that education must strive for equipping young people with a degree of global reflexivity—a concept that is suggested here in relationship to young people’s awareness that will enable them to critically think about globalization. In a second step, the author discusses the question why Christian education should be concerned with globalization. In this respect, the concept of civil society and, more specifically, Christian education’s contribution to civil society (which is discussed in a separate section of the article) should play a crucial role. In conclusion, a number of perspectives for the future of Christian education are suggested.

소개
한국에 복음이 들어오고, 교회가 설립된 것은 19세기 말이었다.
해방이 되면서 한국교회는 더욱 발전하게 되었고 그에 따라 기독교교육의 중요성과 필요성도 강조되게 되었다. 그러한 과정에 기독교교육을 전공한 학자들이 귀국함에 따라 그들을 중심으로 한국기독교교육학회를 결성할 필요성을 느껴 설립하게 되었다.
한국기독교교육학회의 설립 목적은 기독교교육학의 이론적 발전과 실천을 위한 연구와 장을 확대해가려는 것이다. 그리고 학자들간의 연구교류와 교제를 위한 장을 마련하기 위하여 본 학회를 1960년에 설립하였다.
