This article discusses how Islamic religious education (IRE) can complement citizenship education by nurturing shared values and norms. The article first discusses the ideal of transformative citizenship in the context of Western liberal democracies as the dynamic interplay of four core dimensions: identity, legal status, participation, and rights. Next, these dimensions of citizenship are linked to Islamic key concepts that can be interpreted as being in line with transformative citizenship. To show how IRE may simultaneously serve the civic formation of pupils, Islamic key concepts are operationalized as educational goals to pursue in IRE classes.

This study examines participants’ self-reported learning orientations over the course of the interfaith leadership program Emoena. Participants started the program with a range of different expectations and motivations, and this influenced the insights they gained and the challenges they faced throughout the program. Based on an inductive analysis of participants’ reflection reports, four interfaith learning orientations were distinguished: 1) literacy-oriented learning, 2) connection-oriented learning, 3) competency-oriented learning, and 4) reflection-oriented learning. Knowing more about these learning orientations will benefit curriculum designers in choosing relevant learning activities, and will direct future empirical work on the complex dynamics of interfaith learning.

AbstractThis study explored the spiritual needs of Christian families by surveying and holding focus groups with parents and congregational leaders. We discovered a disconnect between what congregational leaders think is happening with families and the lived experience of families. Congregational leaders often perceive the lack of church engagement from families as disinterest or devaluing of spirituality and faith over and against other pursuits. However, our data revealed that parents deeply value spirituality and issues of faith. This research highlights the need for deep listening on the part of congregational leaders coupled with empathy for the pressures parents are currently feeling.Keywords: Christian familiesparentsparentingnurturing spiritual livesCOVID-19spiritualityspiritual well-beingchurch attendance Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 This study originally sought to interview caregivers of children and youth including grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. However, everyone but two individuals in our sample identified as a “parent.” As such, we use the term parent throughout the manuscript rather than the broader term of caregiver.2 The mission of Godly Play is to support research, curriculum, and training for the purpose of nurturing the spiritual well-being of children.3 Participants were from California, Canada, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Mississippi, Missouri, Tennessee, Vermont, Washington State, West Virginia, and Texas.Additional informationNotes on contributorsCheryl MinorCheryl Minor is the Director of the Center for the Theology of Childhood for the Godly Play Foundation, the research and publishing arm of the Foundation.

AbstractThis article explores how pilgrimage shapes the ways in which Korean American youth and young adults develop their sense of intersectional identities by visiting their motherland. The coauthors begin by highlighting the limitation of Korean American churches’ emphasis on text-based education, suggesting how pilgrimage as a spiritual practice could be more implemented for more embodied and experiential learning. By analyzing the Trip to the Motherland program run by the Presbyterian Churches in Korea and North America, the article demonstrates how transnational pilgrimage enables young pilgrims to gain a renewed sense of intersectional identities, which integrates their racial, ethnic, and religious lives.Keywords: Korean Americanpilgrimageembodied learningyoung adultsidentity development Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 The term “intersectional identity” comes from the concept of “intersectionality,” first coined by Kimberlé Crenshaw (Citation1989). Intersectionality describes how race and racism need to be understood at their intersection with other forms of indentification, such as gender, class, ethnicity, sexuality, immigration status, and more. This concept is helpful in exploring how Korean American young people often struggle to make sense of their racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities as racially minoritized individuals in America.2 Christine Hong and Anne Carter Walker (Citation2020) use a similar methodology in their co-written article. Inspired by bell hooks, Hong and Carter Walker use their personal narratives as a way to engage in critical dialogue and reflection on religious education and what it means to be religious educators as scholars of color. Patrick Reyes (Citation2018) also employs a similar approach in his article, “Practical Theology as Knowledge of Origin and Migration.”3 Cho participated in the pilgrimage in 2015 and 2018 and Han participated in the pilgrimage program in 2022.4 In the history of Korean Christianity, along with American Presbyterians, American Methodists also laid the Protestant Christian foundation in Korea, such as Henry G. Appenzeller, George Heber Jones, and Mary Scranton.5 Another similar program is called Brightright Israel, which provides opportunities for young American Jews to visit Israel on an all-expense-paid ten-day pilgrimage-tour. Sociologist and Jewish studies scholar Shaul Kelner (Citation2010) writes about the program and explores how it helps American Jewish young adults to think more extensively about their identities as they visit their motherland in Tours That Bind: Diaspora, Pilgrimage, and Israeli Birthright Tourism.6 While the transition into “Individuative-Reflective” faith ideally happens in the early to mid-twenties, Fowler (Citation1995) strongly indicates that not every young adult succeeds in doing it. Many people could also transition into this stage after their young adulthood.7 Yoido Full Gosp
摘要本文探讨了朝圣是如何塑造韩裔美国青年和年轻人通过访问祖国来发展他们的交叉身份感的。共同作者首先强调了韩裔美国教会强调基于文本的教育的局限性,建议如何将朝圣作为一种精神实践,更多地实施具体化和体验式学习。本文通过分析韩国长老会和北美长老会开展的“祖国之旅”项目,展示了跨国朝圣如何使年轻的朝圣者获得融合种族、民族和宗教生活的新的交叉身份感。关键词:韩裔美国人朝圣具身学习青少年身份发展披露声明作者未报告潜在利益冲突。注1“交叉身份”一词来源于“交叉性”的概念,该概念最早由金伯利·勒·克伦肖(Citation1989)提出。交叉性描述了种族和种族主义需要如何与其他形式的认同(如性别、阶级、种族、性取向、移民身份等)相交叉来理解。这个概念有助于探索韩裔美国年轻人如何经常努力理解他们作为美国少数种族个体的种族、民族、文化和宗教身份。2 Christine Hong和Anne Carter Walker (Citation2020)在他们共同撰写的文章中使用了类似的方法。受贝尔·胡克斯的启发,洪和卡特·沃克用他们的个人叙述作为一种方式,参与宗教教育的批判性对话和反思,以及作为有色人种学者的宗教教育家意味着什么。帕特里克·雷耶斯(Patrick Reyes, Citation2018)在他的文章《作为起源和迁移知识的实践神学》中也采用了类似的方法。“赵某在2015年和2018年参加了朝圣,韩某在2022年参加了朝圣项目。”在韩国基督教的历史上,美国卫理公会教徒和美国长老会教徒一起为韩国奠定了新教的基础,如亨利·阿彭策勒、乔治·希伯·琼斯、玛丽·斯克兰顿等。该计划为年轻的美国犹太人提供了访问以色列的机会,他们可以免费进行为期十天的朝圣之旅。社会学家和犹太研究学者Shaul Kelner (Citation2010)写了这个项目,并探讨了它如何帮助美国犹太年轻人在他们访问祖国的旅行中更广泛地思考他们的身份:散居、朝圣和以色列与生俱来的权利旅游。虽然理想情况下,向“个人反思”信仰的转变发生在20岁左右,但福勒(Citation1995)强烈指出,并不是每个年轻人都能成功做到这一点。许多人在成年后也会过渡到这个阶段首尔的汝矣岛完全福音教会是世界上最大的教会,拥有大约48万名成员1984年5月3日,教皇约翰·保罗二世参观了这里,向烈士们致敬。他在韩国天主教成立200周年之际访问了韩国。一年后的1985年,特蕾莎修女参拜了靖国神社。1997年11月7日,靖国神社被指定为具有国家历史意义的遗址但是,沃菲尔德也指出,在一些宗教场所,参与者可能会感到失望,感到失望。因此,朝圣者可能会经历认知失调,这是人们在遇到冲突的经历时感到的精神不适在他的文章(2020)中,蒙塔古·威廉姆斯(Montague Williams)虽然没有将朝圣作为一个发展过程进行分析,但他研究了迈克尔·布朗(Michael Brown)死后前往密苏里州弗格森(Ferguson)的朝圣如何使年轻的大学生能够接受精神和身体参与社会正义之间的统一。并作为一群朝圣者,参与圣召的分辨Woori是韩语单词,意思是“我们”或“我们”。关于贡献者的说明:美国波士顿大学神学院,神学学院。电邮:eunilcho@bu.eduGaram HanGaram Han Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary, USA。电子邮件:garam.han@garrett.edu

AbstractThere is significant research on the built environment’s support for children’s optimal learning in educational settings. While faith itself is transmitted through conversation with God, the process of conversation, as well as a child’s interaction and growth within their community, is affected by the physically built environment of the classroom. By filtering data through a lens of God’s gift of place, we can see what is often taken for granted or measured by adult standards. When place is viewed as the third teacher, best practices can help children enter a flow state of learning which supports their spiritual development.Keywords: built environmentchildren’s facilitiescreating communityChristian educationclassroomschildren’s optimal learning Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsElizabeth ViceElizabeth Vice has years of training and education both in human development, Montessori pedagogy, and theology.

AbstractIn light of the history of immigration during and after the Vietnam War, Vietnamese American families are struggling to live between two worlds: their old culture and nation and their new life in the United States. Parents face a dilemma in raising their children, either to maintain the Vietnamese tradition or to adapt to the new American culture.
