<![CDATA[Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on the life of the church in Indonesia, including the design of Christian education organized by the church. The pandemic, in which digital technology develops rapidly and massively, urges the church to rethink the concept and purpose of Christian education to demonstrate its critical, adaptable, and creative dimensions. Based on a literature study of the various dynamics and changes that occur in the area of Christian education during the COVID-19 pandemic, this research proposes the three fundamental transformative efforts for the churches in Indonesia to design their concept and elaborate their purposes of Christian education, focusing on strengthening relationships among people, changing ways of thinking and learning (teaching), and socializing with digital media.
