Abstract

In Toraget Village, Minahasa, the ‘Padakanan’ hot springs serve as a vital center for communal life, yet its potential theological meaning remains unexplored. A gap exists between the communal physical practice around the hot springs and its theological interpretation as "Living Water". This research aims to bridge this gap by constructing a contextual theology through a comparative-thematic analysis of the practices at ‘Padakanan’ and the narrative of Jesus's encounter with the Samaritan woman (John 4:1-14). Using a qualitative method with a contextual theology approach, this study collected data through observation, interviews, and biblical exegesis. The analysis found four main points of convergence: (1) The water at ‘Padakanan’ as a gift of creation becomes a metaphor for "Living Water" as the gift of salvation. The space of ‘Padakanan’ as a communal hub reflects the potential for a transformative space of encounter that transcends social boundaries; (2) The physical purification process at ‘Padakanan’ symbolizes the spiritual purification process from sin towards restoration in Christ. (3) The vital role of women as community agents at ‘Padakanan’ is theologically affirmed by the Samaritan woman's role as a gospel evangelist. This study concludes that ‘Padakanan’ can be interpreted as a "natural sacrament" that offers pastoral and missiological implications for the church to develop a ministry rooted in the local cultural context.

Abstract

The era of technological disruption, driven by the economic logic of "surveillance capitalism," has created a fragmenting digital architecture. The "filter bubble" or "echo chambers" mechanism algorithmically isolates individuals, exacerbated by a psychological condition of being "alone together" wherein individuals actively engage in a "flight from conversation." This convergence of algorithmic and psychological isolation has fueled an "age of outrage" and extreme social polarization. This crisis is fundamentally theological, as it reduces the dignity of the Imago Dei (image of God) to mere exploitable computational data. This research employs a qualitative library study method with a critical-analytical approach to analyze this phenomenon and propose a reconstruction of Christian leadership theology. This article argues that Christian leaders must develop a new theological competency termed "Digital Wisdom." This wisdom is rooted in a holistic theology that resists dualistic fragmentation. This reconstruction is embodied in the leader's role as spiritual (placing the Word of God as authority over algorithms), educational (building digital ethics and combating disinformation), integrity-based (rejecting partisan outrage), and humanistic (reaffirming the primacy of physical encounter and authentic relationship).
