Abstract

This paper reflects the authors experiences and struggles in doing Christian education ministry in Indonesia. There were expressions of sadness and concern, but there were also hope and confidence. The author believes that Christian education is a highly effective service to serve the Lord. Therefore, it is very important to understand what the characteristics of Christian Education actually are so that every servant of God and Christian educators in Indonesia can truly believe that he or she is doing a real Christian education, not a Christian-labeled education. If every Christian educational institution is committed to implement Christian education as a basis for academic excellence, then it should also apply the principles and characters of Christian education. The Characteristics of Christian Education are the basis of reflection for us to do a self evaluation. Moreover, the writer hopes that this could be a reflection of our shared-life contemplation. The author dedicates this paper to the Lord Jesus, because He has given the gift of immeasurable. He has called the author to serve children, the fruits of His heart, through education. Its how the love of God, and blessed be His name from everlasting to everlasting. May this paper be an inspiration for as many Christian educators as possible not just for Indonesian educators, but also for all who listen to this presentation. May the Lord bless us and may the name of the Lord be glorified. Maranatha.
