The early church community “devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and the prayers” (Acts 2:42). As the church grew numerically and throughout the world, Bishops and Presbyters began to develop more systematic approaches to Christian Education aimed at “transformation through the renewal of minds” (Romans 12:2). The legacy of Christian Education is manifest in everything from congregational programs to parochial schools to Christian universities.
Depending on the size of their parish, clergy may implement different forms of Christian Education with varying degrees of systemization.
