Dalam membangun relasi dan pertumbuhan iman tersebut, dibutuhkan peran dan kompetensi guru Kristen dalam mengimplementasikan pengajaran yang sesuai dengan Biblical Christian Worldview (BCW). Pada era digital saat ini, guru Kristen dituntut untuk memiliki kompetensi dalam meningkatkan Spiritual Formation (pertumbuhan rohani peserta didik) dan Biblical Community (komunitas yang memiliki relasi dengan berwawasan Kristen Alkitabiah). Penelitian ini memiliki tujuan untuk menganalisis seberapa besar kompetensi guru dalam meningkatkan pertumbuhan rohani dan membangun komunitas yang berlandaskan prinsip Alkitabiah. Penelitian dilakukan dengan membagikan survei kepada guru di salah satu sekolah swasta Kristen Tangerang dengan responden sebanyak 61 orang. Data dari responden dikumpulkan melalui kuesioner online (google form) dan dianalisis secara deskriptif kualitatif. Hasil penelitian pada masing-masing aspek Spiritual Formation (SF) dan Biblical Community (BC), responden telah mencapai rata-rata angka 4,1 (kategori baik) atau telah memenuhi kriteria profil kompetensi guru sesuai yang diharapkan. Kendati demikian, perlu ada tindak lanjut yang relevan guna meningkatkan kompetensi guru di era digital dalam aspek Spritual Formation dan Biblical Community melalui pengembangan profesional ataupun pelatihan sejenis.
