Abstract

This paper focuses on the praxis of simplicity among Minahasan affiliates of the Christian Evangelical Church in Minahasa (GMIM) as a spirituality that opposes consumeristic religion. A qualitative case study design was employed to gather data in the form of in-depth interviews, participant observation, and analysis of documents using purposely chosen congregants who always engage in simple living in family, ministry, and everyday life. Data were interpreted using thematic analysis, which was informed by the theological-hermeneutical framework. The results indicate that simplicity is not considered an absence but a planned, religious lifestyle of sufficiency, gratitude, humility, and reliance on God’s providence. In practical terms, the concept of simplicity is reflected in judicious handling of finances, low-profile consumption, non-competitive involvement in worship, and judicious use of social media. Congregants define this way of life as a protest against consumerist ideas such as extravagance, flaunting, and spiritual arrogance, which are becoming more pronounced in church activities and general society. This opposition is anchored in the merging of Minahasan cultural norms, particularly mapalus (mutual help) and the GMIM ethos of love, service, and modesty. This study concludes that the praxis of simplicity among GMIM congregants is a situational spirituality of resistance that protects and revitalizes the church’s theological identity. It provides pastoral implications for faith formation, leadership, and ecclesial practices that are useful in enabling congregants to resist religious consumerism while being involved in modern social life in the plural context of Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the perceptions, attitudes, and responses of the congregation of GMIM Golgota Bukit Ranomuut Permai toward mental health issues, as well as to identify the theological, social, and cultural factors shaping those responses. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling techniques, the research involved 26 participants drawn from church ministers (Pelsus), youths, and general congregants, selected through an open online questionnaire. The data were analyzed thematically and validated through source triangulation. The findings indicate that 96.2% of respondents had previously heard about mental health issues, reflecting a high level of awareness. However, 65.4% reported having experienced stress, anxiety, or depression in recent months, even though access to professional services remains hindered by limited knowledge (12 mentions) and fear of social stigma (8 mentions). Although 65.4% of respondents were aware of the existence of mental health services, one-third still lacked understanding of how to access them. Suggested interventions from the congregation include routine educational programs in the church, the provision of free consultations, the establishment of support groups, the cultivation of a listening culture, and structured spiritual accompaniment. The study reveals a gap between awareness and action, influenced by religious stigma and limited information. It recommends integrating mental health literacy into pastoral ministry, establishing a pastoral referral system, and fostering collaboration between the church and professional practitioners. The church is positioned as an agent of social transformation capable of providing a safe space for holistic healing—physical, psychological, and spiritual—within the framework of a theology of shalom. This research offers practical contributions to the development of contextual pastoral care and enriches academic discourse on the intersection of religion, culture, and mental health in Indonesia.

Abstract

Abstract This study aims to examine the role of the family in shaping children's faith amid the challenges of the digital era, focusing on the congregation of GMIM Bukit Moria Tikala Baru. Using a qualitative approach with an intrinsic case study design, the research collected data through open-ended questionnaires from 15 parents and 5 children, supplemented by interviews, limited observations, and document analysis. Thematic analysis was employed to identify patterns of spiritual practices, challenges, and children’s perceptions of faith transmission within the family. The findings show that the family serves as the first and primary community of faith, with prayer emerging as the dominant foundation in early faith formation. Nine out of fifteen parents mentioned teaching prayer as the initial step, followed by fostering regular church attendance and sharing Bible stories. Daily spiritual practices—such as morning prayers, prayers before meals, and evening prayers—are consistently carried out by most families, although formal family worship remains limited. The main challenges identified include the penetration of digital technology and social media (reported by 10 parents), peer influence, and parents’ busy schedules that reduce the amount of quality time available for spiritual education. However, children’s perceptions emphasize that parental role-modeling—through prayer, worship, and tangible expressions of love—has a profound and motivating impact. Children not only imitate religious practices but also internalize their faith when they experience loving relationships and spiritual consistency within the home. The study concludes that children’s faith formation requires a holistic and relational approach that integrates rituals, narratives, role-modeling, and warm communication within the family. These findings contribute insights for churches and policymakers in designing family-support programs that respond to the spiritual dynamics of younger generations in the digital era.
