Abstract

This study aims to examine how Sipamandaq cultural values can be internalised in Christian Religious Education (CRE) as an effort to shape students’ Christian character. This study employs a qualitative approach using a literature review method through the analysis of various sources, such as books, journals, scientific articles, and previous research relevant to the topic. The findings indicate that the Sipamandaq cultural values reflected in the principles of Sirondo-rondoi (cooperation), Siamasei (mutual love), and Sianuang pa'mai (shared joy and sorrow) are consistent with Christian values. These values can be integrated into Christian Religious Education (CRE) through a contextual approach, thereby helping students to understand, internalise, and apply Christian values in their daily lives. Although there are various challenges in utilising local culture as a learning resource, the integration of Sipamandaq cultural values has the potential to support the formation of students’ Christian character and make learning more meaningful and relevant to their lives.
