Abstract

Quality of leadership is highly needed and essential in an organization, including the church. A reliable, responsible, loyal, diligent, and honest leader can have a positive influence on members to collaborate in achieving the church's goals. In the context of Christian leadership, spiritual leaders must demonstrate attitudes and characters by emulating the teachings and examples of Jesus. However, there are many cases where church leaders engage in misconduct and do not set a good example for the congregation, such as cases of sexual violence and other misconducts, resulting in members becoming inactive in the church due to this. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach to find out the influence of leadership on the activity of congregation members. The results show that the views and expectations of congregation members towards leadership are very diverse, but the most important thing is that leaders must serve with full loyalty, patience, and show concern for the congregation members. Factors such as dissatisfaction in service, laziness in worship, family struggles, lack of trust, and busyness in work are the main causes of the inactivity of members in the church. Therefore, effective strategies are needed to provide motivation and support to congregation members to be active and willing to participate in every worship activity, including worship services

Abstract

This research explores the importance of parents' roles in shaping children's social interactions, especially in facing the increasing challenges of peer pressure among teenagers. Using qualitative research methods, data was obtained through literature review and relevant online sources. The findings show that families play a crucial role in shaping children's character, habits, and actions. Additionally, children's social interactions are greatly influenced by the family environment, which serves as the foundation for their development. Good communication between parents and children, as well as the establishment of clear rules and boundaries within the family, are key to fostering positive social interactions. Parents also need to provide age-appropriate sex education to help children understand the risks of peer pressure. Thus, the role of parents in guiding children and creating a healthy family environment is very important to protect children from the negative impacts of peer pressure and to build strong character and readiness to face future challenges.

Abstract

Christian Religious Education (CRE) is pivotal for whole-person formation, yet classroom practice often remains teacher-centered, suppressing student participation. This study aimed to identify effective instructional approaches that foster active engagement in CRE lessons. Using a qualitative library research design, we thematically reviewed books, peer-reviewed articles, and relevant reports on student participation and pedagogies applicable to CRE. Findings indicate two consistently effective approaches: cooperative learning (e.g., Think–Pair–Share, Jigsaw, Team Games Tournament, and “window shopping”) and problem-based learning. These models elevate engagement across cognitive (analysis, evaluation, problem solving), affective (interest, motivation, positive attitudes), and psychomotor (practice and performance) domains. The CRE teacher’s role as facilitator and spiritual mentor—backed by professional competence in content mastery, classroom management, creativity, and communication—proves crucial for creating interactive, joyful, and meaningful learning climates. We conclude that participatory models enable students to not only grasp doctrine cognitively but also embody Christian values in daily life. The results offer practical guidance for CRE teachers, curriculum developers, and teacher-training programs to design student-centered learning. Future studies should test these approaches using quasi-experimental, mixed-methods, and longitudinal designs to assess impacts on character formation, faith development, and transferability across grades and school contexts.

Abstract

Good mental health requires the ability to manage emotions, thoughts, and actions in a healthy and adaptive manner. Parental upbringing and family support are crucial in maintaining the mental health of adolescents, as they are the closest individuals within the family. Emotional support from the family and access to mental health resources like psychologists or mental health clinics can assist adolescents in overcoming stress and pressures in their lives. This paper uses a literature review methodology to explore the family’s role in adolescent mental health. The findings based on the literature review indicate that the family has a significant influence on adolescent mental health. Parenting styles demonstrated by parents have a significant impact on the mental development of adolescents. The social support provided by parents to their children is likewise crucial. With strong social support from the family and the surrounding environment, adolescents can build positive relationships with others, effectively overcome challenges, and achieve desired life goals.
