The Korean church has neglected to respond to cultural changes of the young generation in the Korean society. This implies that communications between other groups and the young people’s group in the Korean church are broken. The Korean church needs a local curriculum to be able to respond to the Korean young adults’ needs and interests, and let them actively form and transform local church traditions and cultures.Therefore, this study explores the relationship between curriculum and culture, and defines curriculum as an educational process for a particular congregation surrounded by a particular culture. This study analyzes three interactions of three cultures: Korean culture, local church culture, and young adults’ culture. Through these interactions, the young adults’ needs, the church tradition, and the cultural environments encompassing the local church can be integrated into the local church curriculum.On the basis of these interactions, this study introduces an alternative curriculum model for the Korean young adults. The model is build upon Groome’s “shared praxis model” that integrates students’ life and church tradition. This curriculum model tries to integrate local church culture, vision as Christians, the unique culture of young adult groups, and the Korean culture.

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.
