Abstract

The problem with this research is that the level of the practice of Christian religious education in Indonesia, which has taken place so far, is dogmatic. The pattern of Christian religious education is dogmatic in terms of content and approach. In terms of content, dogmatic themes are taught and passed on to others (children and adults). This model is a top-down model—for example, catechetics material. In the Catechetics curriculum, the material taught is generally about Confession of the Faith, the Ten Commandments, the Biblical canon, the prayer of our Father, the history of the church, and the ordinances of the church. In terms of content, it is apparent that the approach is thematically dogmatic. This approach does not lead to critical, constructive, and solution bringing ideas. This research aims to establish the concept of Christian education based on Biblical theological approaches. The result of the analysis is that the present theology of the book of Deuteronomy provides valuable and essential educational material. Keywords: Re-interpreting Deuteronomy, Education, Theology
