Spiritual Formation Sebagai Strategi Pendidikan Kristen

Abstract

Most Christian schools and colleges have goals of fostering the spiritual formation of their students. This paper discusses the meaning of spiritual formation and factors which impinge on ongoing spiritual development in Christian educational establishments. Research and insights from the social sciences are examined and applied where appropriate as tools for Christian educators to understand how not all people will experience spirituality in the same way. A multi-faceted strategy is suggested in order to meaningfully facilitate Christian formation in as many students as possible.
