Abstract

This study analyzes verb usage in ten Bible character stories designed for Sunday school children, with a specific focus on how various types of verbs contribute to narrative structure and character portrayal. Utilizing a qualitative research design, the study categorizes verbs into four types: transitive, intransitive, inchoative, and stative (e.g., "be"), and examines their distribution and narrative impact. The analysis reveals that intransitive verbs dominate, accounting for 55% of verb usage, thereby highlighting actions as independent events that emphasize the characters' journeys and experiences. Transitive verbs, which comprise 40% of the total usage, underscore interactions and relationships, reinforcing themes of obedience and purposeful action. The limited presence of inchoative and stative verbs suggests a reduced focus on state changes or existential reflections, thereby steering the narrative towards dynamic portrayals of the characters' faith journeys. Overall, this research provides valuable insights into how verb choices shape the storytelling experience and enhance the educational value of biblical narratives for children.

The integration of digital technology in education has encouraged the use of innovative learning media that align with students’ characteristics. Social media platforms such as TikTok, supported by video editing applications like CapCut, have the potential to be utilized as short video-based learning media. This community service activity aimed to enhance students’ understanding and skills in creating short instructional videos using TikTok and CapCut. The activity was conducted on December 8, 2025, involving 36 students of SMA Negeri 6 Pematangsiantar as community service partners. The implementation method employed training activities consisting of material presentation, hands-on practice in producing instructional videos, and evaluation of the learning outcomes. The results indicated that students were able to produce short instructional videos creatively and demonstrated improved understanding of learning materials and the educational use of digital media. This activity contributed positively to fostering innovative, creative, and technology-based learning practices that support student engagement and learning effectiveness in the school environment. The activity also encouraged collaboration among students, enhancing their communication and teamwork skills. Feedback collected from participants highlighted increased confidence in using digital tools for educational purposes. Future initiatives will focus on expanding this program to include more schools and diverse digital media platforms. The program’s success underscores the importance of integrating digital literacy into the curriculum to prepare students for future academic and professional environments. Additionally, educators reported that the initiative enhanced their teaching strategies by incorporating more interactive and student-centered approaches. Ongoing assessment and feedback will guide the refinement and scalability of the program to maximize its impact across different educational contexts.
