Abstract

This study aims to know, explain, and explore the understanding of the Catholic patients and their families at the Local Government Hospital (LGH) of dr. T. C. Hillers Maumere about the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick (SAS) and its relevance to their willingness to receive the ministry of SAS for the patients. This study is a qualitative study with a case study approach. The data collection method uses observation, interview, and literature study techniques. The results of observation and interview show that Catholic patients and their families have a diverse understanding of SAS. These diverse understandings have relevance to their willingness to receive the ministry of SAS for patients. A good understanding of SAS will have a great effect on the willingness to receive the ministry of SAS for the patients or sick people who have begun to be in mortal danger. The pastoral step that can be taken is the teaching of the Catholics through catechesis and preaching.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the role of the church in addressing the challenges of the post-truth era in conveying truth amid the spread of hoaxes and disinformation. This study employs a qualitative approach using literature analysis and case studies on information dissemination in church digital media. Primary data sources include theological studies, previous research, and analysis of church digital media content. The findings indicate that hoaxes and disinformation in religious contexts weaken church authority, polarize congregations, and lead to theological misunderstandings that deviate from church doctrine. The church needs to develop effective strategies to combat disinformation, such as enhancing digital literacy among congregants, strengthening pastoral theology, and optimizing social media as a platform for spreading the true teachings. This study emphasizes that the church’s role in safeguarding truth must be proactive to prevent congregants from falling into misleading information. By adopting an approach based on God’s word and effective communication aligned with technological advancements, the church can continue to be a guardian of truth in the post-truth era.

Abstract

The development of information and communication technology (ICT) has had a significant impact on religious life, including the fellowship of Christians. ICT offers opportunities to expand the reach of ministry, strengthen connections between congregations, and facilitate Bible learning. However, potential dangers also exist; ICT can erode the values of communion and fuel individualism, contrary to the teachings of Christ. Ephesians 4:5 ("One Lord, one faith, one baptism") provides an analytical framework for understanding this impact. Oneness in God, faith, and baptism should be a solid foundation of fellowship, transcending differences. However, social media and the internet create a fragmented "virtual world", isolating individuals in a limited information "bubble". Online interaction, while beneficial, does not completely replace the face-to-face meetings that are essential for building real relationships. Social media algorithms amplify "filter bubbles," creating polarization and inhibiting constructive dialogue. Self-comparisons on social media can also trigger jealousy and division. To address this, churches need to make wise use of ICT, build positive and inclusive online communities, and emphasize the importance of face-to-face meetings and real ministry. Education on the healthy use of ICT is also crucial, so that communion is maintained and Christian values remain firmly entrenched.
