Abstract

Cultural transformation within the Batak Toba community is an ongoing phenomenon, particularly in the context of Christian education. One cultural aspect that plays a significant role is Pasu-Pasu (blessing), which holds not only spiritual meaning but also functions as a social and ethical value in daily life. This research aims to analyze how the concept of Pasu-Pasu can be integrated into Christian education as part of the cultural transformation of the Batak Toba community, using Timothy Tennent's Trinitarian mission perspective. Tennent's Trinitarian missiological approach emphasizes that the Christian mission is not solely about evangelization but also about active involvement in shaping a culture that reflects Gospel values. The research findings indicate that Christian education which adopts the values of Pasu-Pasu can shape students' character based on Christian faith while simultaneously preserving Batak Toba cultural identity
