Abstract

This study examines the restructuring of accountability management for church task force committees in improving congregational ministry outcomes at GPdI Beth Eden Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. The study is motivated by the limited understanding of accountability in church ministry, which is often focused only on administrative responsibilities and activity reporting, reducing its role as an instrument for improving ministry quality. This research aims to analyze the implementation of accountability management restructuring for church task force committees based on Christian ministry principles and its implications for congregational ministry outcomes. The theological foundation is derived from 1 Corinthians 4:1–2, emphasizing that servants of Christ are stewards who must be faithful, and Ephesians 4:11–16, which highlights ministry as a means of equipping believers and building the body of Christ. This study employed a qualitative approach with a case study method at GPdI Beth Eden Kemayoran, Central Jakarta. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document analysis and analyzed using a descriptive-interpretative approach. The findings show that restructuring accountability management strengthens coordination, clarifies ministry responsibilities, improves communication and collaboration, and encourages faithfulness, responsibility, and active participation among committee members. Accountability is not merely an administrative reporting mechanism but also functions as a process of spiritual formation, relational development, and ministry improvement. In conclusion, accountability management restructuring contributes significantly to enhancing congregational ministry outcomes from organizational, relational, and theological perspectives.

Abstract

The church is called to embody a community of faith characterized by love, justice, and equality before God. Nevertheless, the persistence of social favoritism within contemporary churches continues to undermine this calling and contradict the gospel's vision of an inclusive faith community. This study aims to construct an ecclesiology of equality through an exegetical analysis of James 2:1–13 as a theological response to the problem of social favoritism in the church. Employing a qualitative literature study with an exegetical-theological approach, this research examines the literary and theological message of James 2:1–13 to formulate ecclesiological principles relevant to contemporary ecclesial practice. The findings reveal that James strongly condemns favoritism as incompatible with faith in Jesus Christ and presents equality, impartiality, mercy, and the law of love as foundational principles for the life of the church. Based on these exegetical findings, the study proposes an ecclesiology of equality that envisions the church as an inclusive, participatory, just, and compassionate community that affirms the dignity of every person, particularly those who are socially and economically marginalized. In conclusion, James 2:1–13 provides a robust theological foundation for challenging social favoritism and calls the church to embody God's impartial love through equitable relationships, communal participation, and justice in its life and ministry.
