Abstract

The reality of diversity is an integral part of Gereja Protestan di Indonesia bagian Barat (The Protestant Church in Western Indonesia, abbreviated as GPIB). This contextual plurality is the church’s wealth, which should make an essential contribution to its ministry. However, a singular challenge that arises in light of that diversity relates to the strong emphasis on “church unity”—which should be a supportive element—thus contributing to problems with the church’s ministry and pedagogy. How is this so? Given that centralized efforts to promote unity correlate closely with the imposition of rules that dominate and determine Christian religious education in the church, this article asserts the necessity of communal identity for an ongoingly diverse reality; communal identity, in other words, must not be destroyed in the name of promoting unity. The argument unfolds in three stages, entailing (1) a summary of the current context of the GPIB and problems it faces, (2) an academic study of the objectives of Christian religious education, to be considered in the context of the GPIB, and (3) a rationale for setting these objectives. Through these three stages, the communal vision is expected to contribute to the church’s ministry and education in the midst of the congregation and the whole Indonesian society with its multicultural context.

Abstract

This article explores violence against women in Yogyakarta, which increased rapidly during the pandemic. The study showed that violence against women is also the result of deep and troubling cultural structures that oppress women. Based on a see–judge–act analysis, this article proposes that church educational ministries can build relationships with women victims and their families through a variety of transformational ways, even amid a pandemic. The church can develop communication, healing, and education through a holistic approach in Christian education (practicing communicability, redeemability, and educability). The paradigm of gender equality should be integrated into our attitudes and actions in daily life and in the whole range of the church’s ministry to create spaces for women’s voices not only through education and ritual action but also actual transformation.

Abstract

This article highlights the issue of radicalism that is rife in Indonesia today. Deradicalization is seen as an effort that can be taken to overcome this problem. This paper presents the realization of this strategy from Christian Education's perspective. A qualitative approach through analysis of written materials in literature study is presented in this paper. In particular, the research results from the discourse analysis study of news papers that have been carried out previously are used along with some supporting works of literature to complement the required analysis data. Jack L. Seymour's ideas about the importance of a holistic approach in Christian Education, including a faith community approach, instructional and missional, are the theoretical basis in this paper. These three approaches are correlated with the concept of public theology. As a result, Christian education for encouraging people in the public sphere has become a transformational approach to present the benefits of faith education in the public sphere, primarily to support the deradicalization process. Abstrak Tulisan ini menyoroti persoalan radikalisme yang marak di Indonesia saat ini. Deradikalisasi dipandang sebagai salah satu upaya yang dapat ditempuh dalam mengatasi persoalan ini. Tulisan ini mengetengahkan realisasi dari strategi ini dalam perspektif Pendidikan Kristiani. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif melalui jenis penelitian literatur, analisis bahan tertulis dipaparkan dalam tulisan ini. Secara khusus hasil penelitian dari kajian analisis wacana atas surat kabar yang telah dilakukan sebelumnya beserta tambahan beberapa literatur penunjang disuguhkan untuk melengkapi data analisis. Gagasan Jack L. Seymour tentang pentingnya pendekatan holistik dalam Pendidikan Kristiani yang meliputi pendekatan komunitas iman, instruksional dan misi menjadi landasan teori dalam tulisan ini. Ketiga pendekatan ini dikorelasikan dengan kajian teologi publik. Hasilnya, partisipasi pendidikan Kristiani di ruang publik menjadi sebuah bentuk pendekatan transformasional dalam upaya untuk menghadirkan manfaat pendidikan iman pada ruang publik, khususnya dalam menunjang proses deradikalisasi.
