It has been about 10 years since Dr. Maria Harris passed away from us. I dedicate this study to Harris who had made great achievements in the area of religious education from 1932 to 2005 and has given great influence on my study until now. Harris has contributed to establishing the relationship between aesthetics and religious education. Harris understands church as the artistic community and human beings as artists with the image of God, the Artist. On this theological foundation, she develops her own educational theory which is called the art of teaching. This study introduces the art of teaching and curriculum as artistic five movements: contemplation, engagement, formgiving, emergence, release. Harris also describes the art of teaching as the process to create harmony of teacher, students, and subject matter, suggests five criteria for the art of teaching (taking care, taking steps, taking form, taking time, and taking risks), and emphasizes the use of poetic and artistic language in the classroom. Finally, this study applies Harris' art of teaching to the Korean context and compares the art of teaching with the Korean play, Ma dang Keuk. Harris was the first religious educator who connects the aesthetics to religious education and made religious education artistic, beautiful, imaginative, and creative.

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.
