Ephesian 4: 11-16

Now these are the gifts Christ gave to the church: the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, and the pastors and teachers. Their responsibility is to equip God’s people to do his work and build up the church, the body of Christ. This will continue until we all come to such unity in our faith and knowledge of God’s Son that we will be mature in the Lord, measuring up to the full and complete standard of Christ.

Then we will no longer be immature like children. We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth. Instead, we will speak the truth in love, growing in every way more and more like Christ, who is the head of his body, the church. He makes the whole body fit together perfectly. As each part does its own special work, it helps the other parts grow, so that the whole body is healthy and growing and full of love.

About Christian Education

Christian Education is about discipleship – equipping the learner to be well rooted and to become like Christ (Ephesian 4: 11-16). Teaching is the chief missionary task of the Church (Mathew 28:19-20). We need to teach people to obey the Word of God in all aspects of their lives so that they are not destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Through Christian Education, God’s people are guided and helped to manage life transitions – from the ‘womb to tomb’.

Christian Education is a transformational agent that covers the home, Church, School/Institutions, and Society in general with the role to advice, facilitate, sensitize, intervene, educate, and represent. With this under guarding and overarching role, Christian Education has continued to work with all the groups and committees of the Church in order to achieve above objectives.

God is still calling us to continue with the task of teaching in an increasingly pluralistic, relativistic, materialistic, and syncretic society that continues to distort the very meaning of truth. Through Christian Education, the Truth can be re-defined in line with the Word of God.

Background

Christian education is defined as a Bible-based, Holy Spirit-empowered (Christ-centered) teaching–learning process. It seeks to guide individuals at all levels of growth through contemporary teaching means toward knowing and experiencing God’s purpose and plan through Christ in every aspect of living. It also equips people for effective ministry, with the overall focus on Christ the Master Educator’s example and his command to make disciples.

Operational Philosophy

The Church education body in PCEA aims at nurturing Church members to be mature in their Christian faith, and to help them adopt Christ’s Spiritual ends and principles of action and apply them in their own situations. The goal of PCEA philosophy of education is to ensure the vision of the Presbyterian Church is achieved, by putting in place programs that facilitate and enhance spiritual growth for all Church members. The PCEA philosophy of the Christian school states clearly that an educational system that leaves God out of its teaching is giving children a religious education only. The church recognizes that the non-Christian philosophy of education has an integrating center in man, while a true philosophy of education integrates all truth in God and demonstrates the relationship of all subject matter to him. It is because of this philosophic divergence that many Christian educators view the Christian based school as the answer to the problem of providing a Theo-centric and thus Christo-centric educational program for children.
