This study emerges from the fact that Korea is rapidly moving to-wards a multicultural society. This situation may create major conflicts of interest and further threaten the stability of the community. Within that context, this study aims to seek ways in which Christian education can contribute to helping every human being live together, recogniz-ing immigrants to be vulnerable people as God’s children in accord-ance with the teachings of the Bible in which it is written that all peo-ple resemble the image of God. This work has four research topics. First, it confirms the need for a new paradigm of Christianity and Christian education in a multicultural society after researching the cur-rent requirements of multicultural education. Second, it identifies the role of Christian education in contributing to the coexistence of hu-mankind in a multicultural society within the ecumenical movement progressed by the World Council of Churches. Third, it tries to estab-lish the role of Christian education from proposals on Christian educa-tion present in the ecumenical movement in order to address the problems arising in a multicultural society. Finally, it establishes the direction of Christian multicultural education, based on general cul-tural education and the understanding gained of the ecumenical movement.
