Abstract

This study explores the Village Cross as a symbol of inculturation, integrating Catholic faith with the Nosu Minu Podi ritual in Dusun Perintis, Balai Sebut Village, Sanggau Regency. Nosu Minu Podi, a post-harvest rice ritual, originally centered on the ancestral statue (Pantak) as the main focus of worship. The introduction of Catholicism led to a symbolic transformation, replacing the Pantak with the Village Cross while maintaining ancestral values and harmonizing them with Catholic practices. This research uses a qualitative approach combining ethnography and contextual theology. Data were collected through participatory observation, semi-structured interviews, and field documentation. Findings reveal that the Village Cross serves dual functions: as a religious symbol affirming God’s presence and spiritual protection, and as a marker of social and cultural identity. This transformation strengthens community solidarity, preserves traditional practices, and provides a medium for faith formation among youth. The study highlights that inculturation enables the integration of local traditions with religious teachings, creating space for contextual, inclusive, and practical pastoral approaches. It contributes to scholarly understanding of the interplay between religion, culture, and community identity, emphasizing the enduring relevance of local wisdom in contemporary religious practice.

Abstract

Religious Sociology is a crucial discipline for understanding religion as a dynamic social phenomenon within the complexity of contemporary society. This study aims to analyze the scope and object of religious sociology, assess its significance for theology students, and examine the relevance of integrating classical and contemporary sociological paradigms to understand current social phenomena, such as suicide, religious conflict, and the development of artificial intelligence. Employing a descriptive qualitative approach based on literature review, with thematic analysis and comparative synthesis, the study finds that religious sociology provides an analytical framework capable of integrating structural, cultural, and symbolic dimensions, which are often overlooked by individualistic or normative theological approaches. These findings underscore the strategic importance of religious sociology as a conceptual bridge between theological reflection and social reality, while also demonstrating its relevance in addressing challenges related to pluralism, conflict, and transformations in religiosity in the digital and artificial intelligence era.

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between Dayak cosmology and Christian spirituality through the inculturation of the Munjong tradition within Catholic Dayak Tobak communities in Dusun Batu Besi, Desa Sejotang, West Kalimantan. As a post-harvest thanksgiving ritual, Munjong embodies a symbolic framework reflecting the interconnectedness of humans, nature, ancestors, and Jebata within the Dayak worldview. The tradition functions not only as a religious expression but also as a means of preserving cultural identity and fostering social cohesion. Within a predominantly Catholic context, Munjong has undergone reinterpretation, aligning with Eucharistic spirituality as the Church’s central expression of gratitude. Using a descriptive-qualitative approach combined with symbolic interaction analysis, this study shows that the religious values embedded in Munjong, including: gratitude, petitions for protection, and veneration of ancestors as spiritual mediators, correspond with Catholic teachings on divine providence, the communion of saints, and the sacredness of creation. The local Church recognizes Munjong as a cultural practice suitable for inculturation, provided it aligns with Christian doctrine, thereby offering opportunities for contextual liturgy and catechesis. The findings suggest that Munjong can serve as a bridge between faith and local culture while simultaneously reinforcing cultural identity and deepening the spiritual life of the community. The result of this study contributes to the discourse on inculturation, contextual pastoral practice, and strategies for sustaining indigenous traditions amid social change.

Abstract

Social change in the context of liquid modernity has significantly influenced how people understand interpersonal relationships, love, and commitment. Contemporary relationships tend to be flexible, temporary, and oriented towards the fulfillment of subjective needs, making loyalty and long-term commitment often viewed as a threat to personal autonomy. Based on Zygmunt Bauman's analysis of liquid modernity and liquid love, this study examines the crisis of modern relationships as an anthropological and theological crisis of meaning. Specifically, the study focuses on the Nota Doktrinal Una Caro as the Catholic Church's theological response to these relational dynamics. Using a library research method with a qualitative and analytical-hermeneutical approach, this study interprets magisterial texts in critical dialogue with the sociological theory of liquid modernity. The research findings show that the Nota Doktrinal Una Caro offers an integrated anthropological-theological vision by affirming Catholic marriage as a permanent, monogamous, and indissoluble communion of life and love. Fidelity is understood as the highest actualization of freedom, while sexuality is seen as an expression of total self-giving, offering an alternative to the fragmentation of modern relationships. The study also emphasizes the importance of a dialogical and formative approach in family counseling.

Abstract

Penelitian ini menganalisis posisi perempuan dalam komunitas Islam menggunakan pendekatan multidisipliner, yang mengintegrasikan perspektif teologis, sosiologi agama, dan stratifikasi sosial. Secara normatif, Islam menegaskan kesetataan spiritual dan moral antara laki-laki dan perempuan, serta memberikan hak dan tanggung jawab yang adil bagi keduanya. Namun, dalam praktik sosial, posisi perempuan sering dipengaruhi oleh budaya patriarkal, tradisi lokal, dan intepretasi keagamaan yang kontekstual, sehingga peran mereka dapat berbeda dari prinsip normatif. Dari prospektif sosiologi agama, praktik keagamaan berfungsi ganda sebagai pedoman moral sekaligus instrumen sosial yang membentuk struktur gender dan identitas sosial, sementara stratifikasisosial berbasis gender membatasi akses perempuan terhadap pendidikan, pekerjaan, dan ruang publik. Dinamika kontemporer, termasuk gerakan feminis Islam dan reintepretasi teks keagamaan telah membuka ruang partisipasi perempuan yang lebih luas dan mendorong pergeseran struktur sosial. Sintesis analitis menunjukkan bahwa posisi perempuan dalam masyarakat Muslim merupakan kontruksi sosial yang kompleks, terbentuk melalui interaksi antara ajaran Islam, praktik budaya, hukum, dan perubahan sosial-politik. Dengan demikia, kesetaraan, keadilan, dan pembagian peran gender bersifat dinamis, kontekstual, dan terus berkembang, mencerminkan interdependensi antara prinsip normatif dan realitas sosial yang terus berubah.
