Abstract

This article discusses the proactive movement of Christian religious education in responding to social inequalities. Christian religious education has the potential to transform the attitudes and behaviors of individuals and communities, motivating them to actively combat social injustice. Through the teaching of Christian values such as love, justice, and solidarity, Christian religious education can build strong social awareness and encourage concrete actions to address social disparities. This research employs a qualitative literature review aimed at elucidating the progressive proactive stance of Christian religious education in responding to the challenges of social inequality. The discussion yields several opportunities for Christian religious education in addressing social disparities: sensitivity to social issues, fostering inclusivity, empowering individuals in need, and engaging in dialectics.

Abstract

This research examines the conflict of roles and responsibilities between elders and deacons in pastoral service within the church. Utilizing a qualitative method, particularly in-depth interviews, the study not only evaluates the dynamics of the relationship between both positions but also identifies its impact on the effectiveness of pastoral services. The research findings highlight differences in perception, role conflicts, and discrepancies in responsibilities between the two roles. This conflict manifests through a gap between positive perceptions within the church and less positive interactions outside worship, creating a negative atmosphere detrimental to the participation of the congregation. Root causes of the conflict, such as individual negligence and the desire for personal recognition, are also identified. Its implications are felt in the effectiveness of services, affecting unity and spiritual growth within the congregation. The study emphasizes the importance of collaboration in pastoral services and presents solutions for consideration. The crucial role of church leadership in addressing conflicts and creating an environment supportive of unity is also underscored. In conclusion, this research details the conflict between elders and deacons, emphasizing collaborative solutions to enhance the effectiveness of pastoral services within the church.
