Abstract

The concepts of curses and blessings are discussed not only in the Bible but also in the lives of church members today. Congregation members in Nalahia (of the Protestant Church in the Moluccas), as a research locus, always associate the concept of curses and blessings with traditional practices and daily life. Pilgrims who carry out their customary obligations will be blessed, while those who are negligent will be cursed. This study aims to reconstruct contextual theology regarding the understanding of curses and blessings from church members. Using qualitative research methods, data were collected from interviews with congregation members and analyzed dialectically with various contextual theological literature. The results of this study indicate that members of the local congregation who are still influenced by multi-layered cultural traditions understand their relationship with God and their ancestors in layers. Expressions of faith in a cultural context open reflections on the meaning of God's creations in the reality of human life, including in cultural practices. Contextual theology does not fall from the sky but is always dialectical with the context that produces the theology, including the cultural context.

Abstract

AbstractThis article examines the perspective of the Maneo community on land and forest as identity. Based on an oral tradition, the Maneo people understand land and forest as medium for meeting Lahatala (the supreme god, the creator, the sacred) and their ancestors to interconnect with other creations. The destruction and control of the land of the Maneo people not only destroy their lives and future but also harm their cultural and religious identities. Using a qualitative research method, this article studies Maneo people’s views on land and forests in relation to their existence and identity. Through the presentation of Maneo’s perspective on U’puna maisi’a yari maisi’a as an entry point, this study explores the realities of land tenure and forest destruction in Maneo, and the way the church responds to the situation. As a conclusion, this article offers a contextual theology about humanizing humans in the concept of Maneo society. AbstrakTulisan ini hendak menggali perspektif orang Maneo tentang tanah dan hutan sebagai identitas dirinya. Memegang teguh prinsip kultural (turun temurun dari) yang diturun-alihkan leluhur, orang Maneo memahami tanah dan hutan sebagai medium perjumpaan dengan Lahatala (Tuhan Pencipta, yang sakral) dan leluhur, serta sebagai cara berelasi dengan sesamanya dan ciptaan lainnya. Penulis menandaskan, penghancuran dan penguasan lahan tidak saja menjadi kekelaman masa depan orang Maneo, melainkan juga meluluhlantahkan identitas kultural dan religi mereka. Melalui metode pendekatan kualitatif, tulisan ini hendak menggali pandangan orang Maneo tentang tanah dan hutan bagi eksistensi dan identitas mereka. Pertama-tama, penulis memperlihatkan perspektif orang Maneo tentang U’puna maisi’a yari maisi’a. Hal itu menjadi pintu masuk untuk mendalami realitas gempuran penguasaan tanah dan pengrusakan hutan yang marak terjadi di Maneo. Lantas, bagaimana gereja memaknai fenomena tersebut. Akhirnya, tulisan ini diakhiri dengan tawaran teologi kontekstual tentang memanusiakan manusia dalam konsep orang Maneo.

Abstract

This article is based on research aimed at understanding the perceptions of the millennial generation as first-time voters in the 2024 Indonesian General Election, while also exploring their concerns regarding participation in this democratic event. The study seeks to analyze high school students' perceptions of multiculturalism and identity politics through their roles as novice voters in the 2024 election. Employing a mixed-methods approach, data were collected from 100 high school students through surveys (questionnaires) and interviews, then classified and interpreted to gain insights into their perceptions of the role of first-time voters in the electoral process. The study reveals three key findings: perceptions of multiculturalism, perceptions of identity politics, and perceptions of agency-structure roles. The article concludes that first-time voters from the high school student demographic view youth political participation in Indonesia as a critical issue that warrants significant attention from the government. Strengthening their capacity as first-time voters ahead of the 2024 election is essential, particularly through enhancing their knowledge of democratic rights as citizens and introducing them to prospective leaders at both executive and legislative levels. This capacity-building effort is expected to foster a healthy political education environment that supports the sustainability of democracy and tolerance in Indonesia. Moreover, the study highlights the need to address the intensity and infiltration of identity politics narratives through social media, which have the potential to create social polarization, especially among Indonesia's younger generation.

Abstract

Abstract. Bullying in educational environments shows an increasingly high graph. Several studies have tried to map the reality of bullying in different contexts while tracing the triggering factors to be handled with various approaches. This article aimed to propose the Patita model of Christian Religious Education as a strategy to overcome the problem of bullying in higher education. This study addressed student groups at State and Private Universities in Ambon. The results of the study indicated that conventional approaches to the problem of bullying are not significant enough to restore traumatic memories experienced by victims and perpetrators of bullying. The Patita model offers a more humanistic and egalitarian approach so that the conversation space is more open and dialogical to discuss memories of bullying.Abstrak. Perundungan di lingkungan pendidikan memperlihatkan grafik yang semakin tinggi. Sejumlah penelitian mencoba memetakan realitas perundungan pada konteks yang berbeda-beda sekaligus melacak faktor-faktor pemicunya untuk ditangani dengan berbagai pendekatan. Artikel ini bertujuan mengusulkan Pendidikan Agama Kristen model patita sebagai strategi dalam mengatasi masalah perundungan di perguruan tinggi. Penelitian ini menyasar kelompok-kelompok mahasiswa di Perguruan Tinggi Negeri dan Perguruan Tinggi Swasta di Ambon. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pendekatan konvensional terhadap masalah perundungan tidak cukup signifikan untuk memulihkan ingatan traumatik yang dialami oleh korban dan pelaku perundungan. Model patita menawarkan pendekatan yang lebih humanis dan egaliter sehingga ruang percakapan lebih terbuka dan dialogis untuk membincangkan memori tentang perundungan.

Abstract

Artikel ini membahas peran publik Gereja Protestan Maluku (GPM) dalam mengelola pluralitas agama di Kota Ambon pascakonflik sosial 1999-2004. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif naratif, penelitian ini bertujuan menganalisis bagaimana transformasi teologis GPM dari eksklusivisme menuju pluralisme berkontribusi pada rekonsiliasi sosial dan pembangunan perdamaian lintas agama. Data diperoleh melalui wawancara mendalam, observasi partisipatoris, serta analisis dokumen gerejawi seperti Ajaran Gereja GPM dan Pola Induk Pelayanan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa GPM menegaskan misi gerejanya melalui teologi publik yang bersifat interkontekstual, yaitu refleksi iman yang menghubungkan dimensi spiritual, sosial, dan budaya secara dialogis. Pendekatan ini diwujudkan dalam berbagai inisiatif konkret, seperti pendidikan perdamaian, pemberdayaan ekonomi lintas agama, program live-in antarumat, serta revitalisasi tradisi lokal Pela-Gandong sebagai instrumen rekonsiliasi kultural. Melalui strategi ini, GPM tidak hanya berperan sebagai lembaga religius, tetapi juga sebagai aktor sosial yang aktif mendorong keadilan struktural dan kohesi sosial. Penelitian ini menyimpulkan bahwa teologi publik GPM merupakan model praksis iman kontekstual yang mampu mentransformasi luka sejarah menjadi energi sosial untuk membangun tatanan masyarakat plural yang damai dan berkeadilan.

Abstract

This thesis aims to determine the factors causing the low participation of young men and women in church services at the GMIH Eben-Haezer Tuguis Congregation. This research uses a qualitative approach with a case study method. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and document studies. The results of the study indicate that low participation is caused by two factors: internal factors and external factors. Both fear, anxiety, and shame that arise from oneself due to ignorance, ministry trauma, bullying , minimal pastoral care from the church, and family also contribute to the impact. The church has a significant role in seeing the lives of the congregation, especially through three dimensions of its service: koinonia (fellowship), marturia (witness), and diakonia (service). In this context, youth are also an integral part of the Body of Christ and are called to take an active part in church life, as the future generation of the church. Many factors influence and become causes, which encourage every church leader to look at this. Therefore, This study suggests an empowerment-based pastoral approach so that youth can experience healing, growth, and active involvement.
