교회에서 평생교육 활성화 방안 탐색

Abstract

The theory and practice of lifelong education have been addressed in Christian education as well. In a word, this is called ‘Christian lifelong education.’ However, the reason why the name ‘Christian lifelong education’ is unfamiliar is because Biblical education or Christian education has not been linked to lifelong education in teaching. The purpose of this study is to explore ways to revitalize lifelong education in churches and present the role of churches as lifelong education institutions in the community. The research questions to achieve the research purpose are: First, what is the current status of lifelong education in the church? Second, what are the plans for revitalizing church lifelong education? am. The research results are as follows. First, the current status of lifelong education within the church is as follows. There are various organizations recognized and operated as lifelong education-related affiliated organizations within the church, including the Welfare Foundation, the Library, the Kindergarten, and the Senior School. In addition, life-long education-related programs or similar life-long education-related programs are operated in each church, such as Sunday school, couple's school, father's school, marriage preparation school, Mother Wise, and counseling center, and are conducted for various targets, in various methods, and for various periods of time in each church. I'm doing it. Second, various ways to revitalize church lifelong education were presented. ①Faith community-centered education is important. ②In order for the church to function as a lifelong education institution in the local community, it is necessary to establish a lifelong education support system. ③A linkage system between the church and the local community is needed. ④Church facilities need to be opened. ⑤A fundamental change in consciousness regarding education for the elderly is needed. ⑥There is a need to provide a variety of educational programs. ⑦It is necessary to revitalize the distance education system. ⑧There is a need to create a culture of revitalizing lifelong education in churches. ⑨It is necessary to establish a legal basis for churches to be designated as lifelong education institutions when necessary. ⑩Churches need to be interested in lifelong education history courses. In addition to the above suggestions, in order to provide effective lifelong education in the church, it is necessary to establish a legal basis to not only operate lifelong education-related programs as an affiliated institution but also conduct lifelong education programs for local residents, and the church must include registered believers. A model is needed to help people recognize that it is an organization for local residents. These measures will bring beneficial results to both the church and the community. In particular, research is needed on what impact the proposed solutions will have when actually implemented. We expect continued research and efforts in the future as the solutions presented in this paper will bring beneficial results to both the church and the local community.
