영문 초록

The decisive role of education in developing children’s faith has become more important in today’s society. Even though we live in an ever-changing world, there is an unchanging requirement for children’s education in faith. The history of Christian education has shown this concern. Throughout history, Christian educators have pursued a way of providing appropriate and sometimes transformative education for faith and a faithful life. This article is designed for understanding the historical continuity of the importance of Christian education for children, focusing on Horace Bushnell in the 19th century, who has been regarded as the Father of modern education, and Elizabeth Caldwell in the 21st century, who is examining and proposing several ways to build the Christian family in an educational context for future generations. Through the examination on Bushnell’s view of Christian nurture and Caldwell’s view of homemaking, this article includes a conversation between Bushnell and Caldwell on the issues of Christian education, the role of parent as an educator, and the partnership between home and church for children’s education in faith. The researcher, finally, suggests Christian education as nurture with intention, as good enough parents(educators), and the church as the big home and the home as the little church under the close partnership.
