Abstract

Purpose of Research: This study aims to gain insights into the direction of multicultural faith community education, which is a part of multicultural Christian education that contemporary Korean churches should establish, based on the holistic mission practices of missionary Elizabeth J. Shepping. Research Content and Method: The study begins with a brief overview of the life of missionary Elizabeth J. Shepping, who experienced multicultural living in various countries, highlighting the prepared professional missionary within the context of her time. The study then examines the details of her holistic mission practices as a professional missionary. The direction of multicultural faith community education in Korea is explored by understanding the background and research trends of multicultural Christian education that Korean society and the Korean church are currently facing. Practical aspects, supplementary points, and directions for the future implementation of multicultural faith community education in the Korean church are also proposed. Results and Conclusions: In conclusion, This study emphasizes multicultural faith community education as a component of the pastoral paradigm that the Korean church needs to improve. Four practical directions are proposed: first, education for holistic service; second, education for social and public practice; third, implementation of public service education linked to the local community; and fourth, activation of dedicated service departments and training of professional leaders. However, the study acknowledges a limitation in not providing specific practical programs for multicultural faith community education suitable for the Korean church context. Continuous research is necessary through various supplementary points in the future.

연구 목적 : 본 연구는 서서평선교사의 통전적 선교 실행을 기본으로, 현대 한국교회가 정립해야 할 다문화 기독교교육의 한 부분인 다문화 신앙공동체교육의 방향에 대한 통찰을 얻기 위한 연구에 목적을 두었다. 연구 내용 및 방법 : 먼저 여러 다문화국가에서 다문화 삶을 경험한 서서평선교사의 생애를 간략히 살펴보며, 시대적 배경을 통하여 준비된 전문인 선교사의 내용을 제시하였다. 특별히 전문인 선교사로서의 통전적 선교실행의 내용을 구체적으로 살펴보며, 한국사회와 한국교회가 당면한 다문화 기독교교육에 대한 배경이해와 연구 동향들을 바탕으로 한국의 다문화 신앙공동체교육의 방향성에 대하여 살펴보았다. 끝으로 미래 한국교회가 실천할 다문화 신앙공동체교육의 실천 부분과 보완점 및 방향성 연구를 제안하였다. 결론 및 제언 : 결론적으로 본 연구는 한국교회가 개선해야 할 목회 패러다임의 한 부분인 다문화 신앙공동체교육을 강조하며, 그 실천과 방향성 4가지를 제안하였다. 첫째, 통전적 섬김의 교육이다. 둘째, 사회적·공적 실천교육이다. 셋째, 지역사회와 연계된 공적 섬김의 교육실행이다 넷째, 섬김의 전담부서 활성화와 전문지도자 양성실행이다. 그러나 본 연구에서는 한국교회 상황에 적합한 다문화 신앙공동체교육 대한 구체적인 실천 프로그램을 제안하지 못한 한계가 있다. 향후 여러보완점을 통하여 지속적인 연구가 필요함을 제안한다.
