Abstract

This study aims to determine what the SEIP method means and how teachers apply it in learning for students in junior high schools. This study applies a literature study method through the collection of library sources to obtain research data. Library data collection is limited to library collection materials only without requiring field research. In this case, the author collects relevant reference sources, such as books, documents, the Indonesian dictionary, and so on. Literature search with the keywords "Implementation", "SEIP Method (Spiritual Emotional Intellectual and Physique)", and "Junior High School". The results of the study show that the SEIP method is a consequence of awareness of self-authenticity and activates the four intelligences inherent in each individual. One way for teachers to be able to carry out this task is to develop strategies and methods used in delivering lesson materials. The SEIP method is one method that can be used by teachers so that learning materials can be digested and understood by students so that the learning process becomes more active and creative.

Abstract

This study examines the philosophy of the Nias megalithic stones and their relevance for Catholic Youth (OMK) in the city of Gunungsitoli through a qualitative-ethnographic approach. Data were collected through in-depth interviews with traditional elders, community leaders, and Catholic youth; participatory observation in customary activities and religious devotions; as well as archival documentation, photographs, and field notes. Thematic analysis identified three clusters of values: resilience (perseverance, discipline, hope), community (mutual cooperation, deliberation, communio), and spirituality (awareness of Christ’s presence in cultural history). The findings show that megalithic stones continue to function as cultural archives, centers of social interaction, and pedagogical symbols for the character formation of Catholic youth. Within the framework of inculturation, these values are reinterpreted in catechesis, culturally rooted liturgy, and social action, without contradicting the Church’s teaching. The study concludes that faith-culture integration strengthens the dual identity of Catholic youth and encourages their role as agents of change in preserving the megalithic heritage and in pastoral ministry. Recommendations include digital documentation of sites, culturally based youth training, and ongoing collaboration between parishes, schools, and traditional leaders in the region.

Abstract

This study analyzes friendship among Catholic Youth (Orang Muda Katolik—OMK in Bahasa Indonesia) as a crucial factor in forming emotional, spiritual, and social readiness for Catholic marriage. The qualitative study was conducted in two parishes—St. Fransiskus Asisi Laverna Gunungsitoli and Kristus Gembala Baik—using in-depth interviews, participant observation, and document analysis. The findings indicate that healthy, value-based friendships within the Catholic Youth community contribute significantly to fostering responsible relationships as a foundation for marriage. Key aspects supporting relational maturity include trust, open communication, mutual respect, and active participation in religious activities. These factors reinforce the psychosocial aspects necessary for building stable and meaningful relationships before entering into marriage. This study highlights the need for a more systematic approach by the Church in integrating friendship development into premarital preparation programs, particularly in pastoral care for Catholic youth. Thus, friendship is not merely a social experience but serves as a pathway toward a holy and committed family life. Further research is encouraged to explore how faith-based education can strengthen friendships as a foundation for mature relationships.
