Abstract

The background to this research is the condition of Manggarai women in NTT who still face structural limitations due to patriarchal culture. The customary practice of belis or dowry often perpetuates subordination, treats women as objects of transaction, and confines their roles to the domestic sphere, thereby limiting their participation in the public sphere. On the other hand, the story of the Samaritan woman in John 4:1-42 offers a radically transformative narrative of liberation from multiple layers of discrimination. This study aims to bridge this gap by analysing how the story of the Samaritan woman's transformation can be adopted as an inspiring theological paradigm for the social transformation of Manggarai women. The method used is descriptive qualitative through literature study. The analysis was conducted in two stages; first, a biblical theological hermeneutical analysis of the text of John 4:1-42 to reveal the meaning of transformation and second, a socio-cultural analysis of the position of Manggarai women. The results of the study show that the transformation of the Samaritan woman was twofold. She underwent a personal transformation, or what is known as restoration of dignity, from social and moral alienation, which directly led to a communal transformation, or the courage to become a prophetic witness in the public sphere. This turning point is symbolised by her action of leaving her water jar, which marks a shift from a domestic focus to a public role. This transformation serves as a powerful counter-narrative to patriarchal structures and practices that diminish the value of women. This study concludes that this biblical narrative has significant contextual potential as a theology of gender liberation. The courage of the Samaritan woman who spoke up can ultimately inspire Manggarai women to move from being objects to empowered subjects, and to take on strategic roles in creating a more just and equitable social order.

Abstract

The discourse on education becomes urgent and important when we witness various forms of humanitarian problems that challenge our conscience. These issues are becoming increasingly complex and intricate in this contemporary era. Meanwhile, the existence of social institutions, particularly the family, is also being questioned. Questions arise about how families should play a role in educating and nurturing the attitudes and character of children to become good human beings. To address this, this article seeks to offer Horace Bushnell's thoughts on education or Christian nurturing. The research method used is library research with descriptive analysis. Research findings indicate that Christian education within the family shapes children with integrity, who are religiously devout and morally correct. Additionally, it was also found that the role of parents in educating children within the family can protect children from social problems in today's contemporary age. The main purpose of this article is to introduce Horace Bushnell's thinking on Christian education in the family and to find practical implications in an effort to overcome the various practical challenges of Christian families in contemporary times. Keywords: Horace Bushnell, Education, Christian, Family, Contemporary

Abstract

The story of the Holy Family in Luke 2:41-52 depicts a portrait of household economic management integrated with the values ​​of faith. This narrative depicts Mary not only as a mother who nurtured Jesus, but also as a figure who demonstrated wisdom, self-control, and responsibility in dealing with family dynamics. The background of this research departs from the reality of Christian mothers today who are faced with economic pressures, lifestyle changes, and moral demands in balancing domestic, work, and spiritual roles. The purpose of this research is to identify the principles of household economic management presented by Mary in Luke 2:41-52 and analyze their relevance for Christian mothers today. The method used is a study of biblical and theological literature linked to a socio-economic analysis of contemporary families. In addition, a comparative study of pastoral writings and spiritual reflections related to Mary's role was conducted to obtain a comprehensive picture of the practical values ​​contained in the narrative. The results of the study indicate that Mary's response to the crisis situation, especially the loss of Jesus in the Temple, demonstrates three main principles: emotional management rooted in faith, respectful communication within the family, and shared responsibility as the basis for decision-making. These findings identify that household financial management encompasses not only material aspects but also spiritual and relational dimensions that influence family well-being. This research confirms that the figure of Mary in this passage can serve as an inspiring paradigm for Christian mothers in building a household that balances economic needs and faith values, so that financial and parenting decisions are made wisely, patiently, and directed toward the family's spiritual growth.

Abstract

The rise of interreligious prejudice in Indonesia is an alarming phenomenon, evident in the intensification of social polarization, the spread of identity-based conflicts, and the decline of constructive communication among religious communities. This situation often hinders efforts to build truthful narratives and substantive dialogue, as they are obstructed by deeply rooted stereotypes and prejudices. This study analyzes the urgency of an epistemological transformation from prejudice toward authentic dialogue as a concrete embodiment of a dynamic and transformative Christian faith, with a particular focus on the narrative of John 1:35–51. By employing a literature-based methodology and descriptive analysis, this research demonstrates how encounters with Christ provide a strong epistemological and spiritual foundation for overcoming prejudice while fostering meaningful interreligious dialogue. Dialogue in this perspective is not understood as doctrinal relativism but as a praxis grounded in truth, agape love, and mutual recognition. This study specifically examines the application of the principle “come and see” as a methodology for cultivating tolerance in response to the complexities of today’s socio-cultural challenges. By integrating theological reflection with the pluralistic reality of Indonesia, this article offers a new perspective on the contribution of Christians in a plural society, particularly their role as facilitators of dialogue amid a social climate saturated with prejudice. The findings of this research are expected to make a significant contribution to the development of more effective, constructive, and transformative models of interreligious dialogue.

Abstract

The Church carries out its mission through five fundamental dimensions: koinonia (communion), diakonia (service), liturgia (worship), kerygma (proclamation), and martyria (witness). Among these, martyria occupies a central role as the witness of faith in Christ in the world. This article aims to analyze the theological meaning of the testimony of John the Baptist in John 1:19–28 and its relevance as a paradigm of the Church’s martyria in the contemporary context. The study employs a qualitative method based on a literature review, using a biblical-theological analytical approach to the text of the Gospel of John. The findings indicate that John’s testimony is characterized by an authentic confession of faith, Christological humility, and a total orientation toward Christ as the center of proclamation. These characteristics affirm that the Church’s martyria is not self-centered but focused on the presence of Christ, made visible through a lived witness and authentic proclamation within the context of the contemporary world. Therefore, the testimony of John can serve as a model for the Church in carrying out its mission of martyria today.

Abstract

Cinta kasih merupakan nilai sentral yang menjadi dasar atau landasan kehidupan umat beriman Kristiani. Cinta kasih yang diajarkan oleh Yesus, yaitu kasih yang tulus dan tanpa syarat yang ditujukan kepada Allah dan manusia adalah hukum yang pertama dan utama, juga inti dari spiritualitas Yesus yang hendaknya dihayati oleh umat beriman Kristiani. Dalam Injil Markus 12:28-34, Yesus mengajarkan bahwa mengasihi Allah dengan segenap hati, jiwa, pikiran, dan kekuatan, serta mengasihi sesama seperti diri sendiri, merupakan dua perintah inti dan terbesar yang mencakup seluruh hukum Taurat. Konflik dalam komunitas, kegagalan beramal kasih, diskriminasi dan eksklusivisme, serta kurangnya empati dan pengertian merupakan masalah-masalah yang terjadi di dalam komunitas umat basis, akibat dari kurangnya pemahaman dan penghayatan hukum kasih. Penelitian ini menggagaskan sebuah solusi berbasis teks Markus 12:28-3, dengan mengkaji relevansi dari hukum kasih sebagai hukum pertama dan utama. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode penelitian kepustakaan, dengan pendekatan analisis eksegesis-hermeneutik serta analisis deskriptif. Penelitian ini mengidentifikasi nilai-nilai utama yang terkandung dalam ajaran kasih kepada Allah dan kasih kepada sesama, serta implikasinya bagi kehidupan komunitas Kristen masa kini, dengan tujuan utama yaitu agar terciptanya lingkungan yang inklusif, penuh dukungan, dan saling memperhatikan antaranggota komunitas. Hasil penelitian bermuara pada relevansi ajaran Yesus dalam teks Markus 12:28-34 untuk menjawabi tantangan sosial dan spiritual yang dihadapi oleh komunitas umat basis masa kini. Dengan demikian spirit cinta kasih Yesus dapat menjadi dasar yang kokoh untuk memperkuat kohesi dan solidaritas dalam komunitas umat basis.

Abstract

The global ecological crisis calls for deeper interreligious reflection on humanity’s relationship with creation. The Catholic Church, through Pope Francis’ encyclical Laudato Si’, and Islam, through its doctrine of amanah (trusteeship) toward nature, both affirm humanity’s moral responsibility as stewards of creation. Yet, in social and religious practices, these ecological values are often overlooked due to dominant anthropocentric and exploitative paradigms. This study proposes an eco-theological dialogue framework that positions environmental theology as an ethical meeting ground between Catholic and Islamic traditions. Using a qualitative comparative textual analysis of Laudato Si’ and Islamic classical and contemporary sources on amanah, the study finds a profound convergence: the Earth is a divine trust that must be cared for with love, justice, and spiritual responsibility. Both traditions reject environmental exploitation and advocate for faith-based ecological conversion. This dialogue thus provides an ethical foundation for interreligious collaboration toward integral ecology and peace with creation. Keywords: ecotheology, eco-theological dialogue, Laudato Si’, Amanah

Abstract

This article analyzes the roles of Mary and Martha from the perspective of Luke 10:38-42, which depicts two different attitudes in welcoming the arrival of Jesus: action (Martha) and contemplation (Mary). This research aims to analyze the differences between these two attitudes and how they can be applied in the lives of today's youth. Using a literature review method, this study examines the importance of action and contemplation in the spiritual and daily lives of young people. The results of the study show that these two attitudes complement each other. Both have strong relevance in providing guidance for the younger generation to achieve a balance between dynamic social activity and deep spiritual experience. This offers important insight into how young people can find harmony in a life full of demands and challenges while maintaining their closeness to God.

Abstract

Komunikasi yang sehat antara suami dan istri merupakan fondasi penting dalam menjaga keutuhan perkawinan Kristiani. Namun, keluarga Kristiani di wilayah perbatasan Batugade, Timor Leste, masih menghadapi berbagai tantangan dalam membangun komunikasi yang terbuka dan berkualitas di tengah kesibukan serta tekanan kehidupan sehari-hari. Kondisi ini menuntut adanya upaya pastoral yang dapat membantu pasangan suami istri memperkuat dialog keluarga berdasarkan nilai-nilai iman. Kegiatan pengabdian kepada masyarakat ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman dan keterampilan pasangan suami istri dalam membaca serta merenungkan Kitab Suci melalui metode Lectio Divina sebagai sarana membangun dialog keluarga yang lebih bermakna. Kegiatan dilaksanakan di Nubadak, Batugade, pada tanggal 25 dan 27 November 2025 dengan melibatkan 41 peserta dari berbagai kalangan umat. Metode pelaksanaan meliputi wawancara awal dengan lima pasangan suami istri untuk mengidentifikasi kondisi komunikasi keluarga, penyuluhan mengenai pentingnya dialog dalam perkawinan Kristiani, pelatihan praktik Lectio Divina, serta dialog dan refleksi bersama. Hasil kegiatan menunjukkan bahwa peserta mengalami peningkatan pemahaman mengenai pentingnya komunikasi suami istri yang berlandaskan Kitab Suci, mengenal tahapan metode Lectio Divina, serta memiliki motivasi dan komitmen untuk menerapkannya dalam kehidupan keluarga sehari-hari. Selain itu, kegiatan ini juga memperkuat kesadaran spiritual keluarga untuk membangun relasi yang saling mendukung dalam terang iman Kristiani. Semangat In Illo Uno Unum (dalam Kristus yang satu, kita adalah satu) menjadi dasar spiritual yang mempererat relasi suami istri dan memperkuat kehidupan keluarga Kristiani di wilayah perbatasan. Dengan demikian, kegiatan ini memberikan kontribusi nyata dalam mendukung penguatan komunikasi keluarga berbasis nilai-nilai Injil sebagai bagian dari pembinaan iman umat.
