Abstract

Over the past decade, tourism development in the Lake Toba region has surged significantly. However, this growth often overlooks local wisdom, ecological sustainability, and the spiritual foundations of the local community. Lake Toba is not merely a natural tourist destination but a living space rich in cultural and religious significance. Its majestic landscape holds great potential as a site for interreligious and intercultural dialogue, and can even be interpreted as a cosmic scripture that resonates with harmony and spiritual openness. This study aims to explore and describe how Lake Toba can be strengthened as a space for interfaith and intercultural dialogue, and to analyze how the HKBP Church, as the majority Christian community in the region, can develop a contextual theology of tourism and religious moderation. A qualitative research method was employed, using a historical-critical and contextual hermeneutical approach to Psalm 19:2–5. This was complemented by in-depth interviews with informants representing subjective readers and interpretive communities. The theoretical framework is based on Stephen Bevans’ contextual theology, particularly his three models: translation, anthropological, and praxis. The findings indicate that: (1) nature, as viewed through the lens of the Psalm, is not merely an aesthetic backdrop but a divine revelation that invites spiritual encounter; and (2) spiritual tourism can serve as a means of social transformation, creating space for religious tolerance and moderation that strengthens social cohesion. In conclusion, religion should play an active role in tourism development, particularly by: (1) establishing nature-based liturgical programs and ecological spiritual education within the church; and (2) positioning itself as a cultural and environmental steward by promoting sustainable spiritual tourism in which spirituality, nature conservation, and respect for local traditions are harmoniously integrated.

Abstract

AbstractThis article aims to identify the benefits and challenges in the integration of digital technology into pastoral counseling in the digital age. This study uses descriptive method with literature study to describe the phenomena that occur in depth and complex. The results show that digital technology can provide spiritual and emotional support through various media such as telephone, video calls, short messages, emails, and other digital platforms, which offer greater flexibility and accessibility. However, there are also shortcomings such as a lack of mastery of digital technology among companions, data privacy and security issues, formal legitimacy from church authorities, as well as a potential reduction in the depth of interpersonal relationships. This research is expected to provide valuable insights for churches in improving the quality of their pastoral care and serve as a basis for the development of better ethical guidelines in pastoral counseling practices based on digital technology. AbstrakArtikel ini bertujuan untuk mengidentifikasi manfaat dan tantangan dalam integrasi teknologi digital ke dalam konseling pastoral di era digital. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode deskriptif dengan studi literatur untuk menggambarkan fenomena yang terjadi secara mendalam dan kompleks. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa teknologi digital dapat memberikan dukungan spiritual dan emosional melalui berbagai media seperti telepon,video call, pesan singkat, email, dan platform digital lainnya, yang menawarkan fleksibilitas dan aksesibilitas yang lebih besar. Namun, terdapat juga kekurangan seperti kurangnya penguasaan teknologi digital di kalangan konselor, isu privasi dan keamanan data, legitimasi formal dari otoritas gereja, serta potensi pengurangan kedalaman hubungan interpersonal. Penelitian ini diharapkan dapat memberikan wawasan berharga bagi gereja-gereja dalam meningkatkan kualitas pelayanan pastoral mereka dan menjadi dasar bagi pengembangan pedoman etika yang lebih baik dalam praktik konseling pastoral berbasis teknologi digital.
