This study aims to examine how the reflection on God's faithfulness expressed in Song of Solomon 8:7a can be integrated into the process of character formation of students through Christian Religious Education. This verse presents a picture of solid, unshakable, and divine love, which is the basis for understanding the relationship between God and His people. With a qualitative approach based on literature studies and theological-narrative interpretation, this study highlights the theological meaning of God's faithful love, as well as its implications for the development of Christian character, such as loyalty, unconditional love, steadfastness in faith, and sincerity in social relationships. The results of the study show that the values of divine love can be an important foundation in character education that is contextual, transformative, and relevant to the challenges of the times. Christian education has a strategic role in instilling these values of Christian love, by integrating Bible stories and students' life experiences to form a personality that is loyal to God and cares for others.
