Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the perspectives of theology study program students on healthy dating based on Christian ethics. The method used in this study is a descriptive qualitative method. Data were collected through observation and interviews with eight theology study program students from 2020-2021. The results of the study showed that students have three main views related to the foundations of healthy dating, namely: Good communication, mutual respect, and maintaining bodily purity. Based on interviews with eight students, it was found that these three perspectives are very important in building harmonious relationships and in accordance with dating ethics. However, students face challenges in maintaining healthy relationships, including environmental influences, temptations of lust, and unclear goals in relationships. For this reason, the application of boundaries and education regarding healthy dating is very necessary to help students understand and live relationships that are in accordance with Christian values. This study is expected to contribute to instilling ethical dating values ​​among theology students.

Abstract

The aim of this research is to describe the perspective of culinary traders in the Sipinsur tourist area regarding the benefits of attending Sunday worship. Sunday worship is our response to the work of salvation that God has given us and as a sign of thanksgiving and respect which is carried out by praising and glorifying His name. This shows how important it is to worship together with fellow believers as a form of gratitude for God's work in each person's life. The benefits of worship are also much greater because they contain promises, both for this life and the life to come. The consequences of a life of worship are blessings that can already be felt (Rom.14:17) because the kingdom of God is not about eating and drinking but about righteousness and happiness by the holy spirit. This study used descriptive qualitative method. Data was collected through in-depth interviews with 8 traders who actively trade in the Sipinsur Geosite tourist area. Data analysis was carried out by identifying thematic patterns and interpreting the meaning of traders' answers. The results of this research show that the majority of culinary traders in the Sipinsur Geosite tourist area have not felt and do not even understand the benefits of attending Sunday worship in their lives. So this is what causes the culinary traders to be absent from Sunday services. Therefore, in this article the author provides an explanation to church ministers to provide a better understanding regarding the meaning and benefits of Sunday worship.
