In the multiple presences of authority claims from different cultures, the context of Christian education in today’s global world is characterized by the ever growing need to acknowledge mutual respect and understanding as well as to recognize interconnectedness and interdependence for one another. In order to engage in a meaningful education in this global context, the four challenging characteristics are identified and analyzed-(1) unequal distribution of power and educational resources, (2) the expanding horizon of information acquisition, (3) the multiple presences among different authorities, and (4) a need of searching for the common roots beyond individual particularities. One of the tasks of Christian education is to educate God’s people to create a ‘hospitable learning space’ through faithful Christian practice. Hospitality nurtures mutual respect and trust that are essential in the relational learning process and also provides a more holistic mode of epistemology that integrates belief and ethics in the context of global education.

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.
