Description
A Social Theory of Religious Education by George Albert Coe, first published in 1925, presents a framework for religious education within a social context. Coe argues that religious education should focus on moral and social values rather than just doctrine. He emphasizes the role of community, culture, and society in shaping religious understanding. The work advocates for fostering critical thinking, moral development, and social responsibility, integrating faith with ethical action, and preparing individuals to actively engage in society with a strong sense of conscience and social awareness.
