Abstract: The perspective of conflict theory, Christian education is often seen as a means to strengthen and destroy the social power structure. From this perspective, it seems that Christian Education does not provide positive value and impact in the social structure. If it is studied that basically Christian Education, as an education system based on Christian teachings, seeks to develop individual character, morality, and personality based on the values of Christian faith. Meanwhile, sociology focuses on the study of society, social structure, and social interaction in the context of culture and values that exist in society. From these two things, researchers examine how the principles of Christian education can interact with basic concepts in sociology, such as social norms, values, and roles in society. From these two things, researchers formulate several questions, namely: What is the correlation of Christian Education with social? And how is Christian Education applied in social life? Therefore the purpose of this research is to analyze the correlation between Christian education and sociology, both from a theoretical and practical perspective and how Christian Education is applied in social life. The method used in this research is the study of literature and qualitative analysis, by identifying relevant sociological theories and how those theories are applied in the context of Christian education. This research is expected to provide a correct understanding for educators that Christian Education has a close relationship between Christian education and sociology in terms of individual social character formation, moral value development, and its contribution to positive social change.
