Abstrak

This article investigates the role and impact of peer leadership within the context of Christian Religious Education (CRE) for adolescents and young people. Peer leadership is defined as the positive influence exercised by an individual within a peer group who has been recognised and empowered to lead. The study employs a descriptive qualitative method, drawing on literature review and conceptual analysis of relevant theological and pedagogical frameworks. The findings indicate that peer leadership is highly effective due to relational proximity, experiential relevance, and credibility among peers. Its implementation in CRE enhances active participation, facilitates the internalisation of Christian values, and supports holistic character formation. It is therefore concluded that churches and Christian educational institutions should integrate and strengthen this model of leadership as a core strategy in nurturing the younger generation.

 

Artikel ini menyelidiki peran dan dampak kepemimpinan sahabat (peer leadership) dalam konteks Pendidikan Agama Kristen (PAK) untuk remaja dan pemuda. Kepemimpinan sahabat didefinisikan sebagai pengaruh positif yang diberikan oleh seorang individu dalam kelompok sebaya yang telah diakui dan diberdayakan untuk memimpin. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif, mengumpulkan data melalui studi literatur dan analisis konsep teologis serta pedagogis terkait. Hasilnya menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan sahabat sangat efektif karena faktor kedekatan relasional, relevansi pengalaman, dan kredibilitas di mata kelompok sebaya. Implementasi kepemimpinan sahabat dalam PAK dapat meningkatkan partisipasi aktif, internalisasi nilai-nilai kristiani, dan pengembangan karakter holistik. Disimpulkan bahwa gereja dan lembaga pendidikan Kristen perlu mengintegrasikan dan memperkuat model kepemimpinan ini sebagai strategi inti dalam pembinaan generasi muda.
