Abstract
Philosophy and Christian education relate because both address life‟s basic questions like meaning of life, nature of morality, worth of knowledge, et cetera. Christian education is concerned with philosophy in that it seeks to know truths about God, about man and how to communicate those truths to others. Philosophy and theology are closely tied. While philosophy derives its nature and structure from human categories, “theology derives its structure and nature from the events of revelation of God in His Word.” From one hand, “revelation must be recognized as sources from which truth and meaning are gained; and on the other hand, as “principles of clear thinking [it] must be applied to the interpretation of God‟s revelation as found in the Bible and in nature” (Exploring Christian education). A personal philosophy of Christian education in this write-up is based on my faith and convictions as a Christian.
