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.

Abstract

This research aims to (1) describe the environmental problems that hit the Manggarai community. (2) Describe the efforts to revitalise local Eco theology to overcome the environmental crisis in Manggarai. The research method used in this study is qualitative research. The results showed that environmental problems are one of the most serious problems faced by the Manggarai people and are even threatening their survival. Modern agricultural patterns, mining, illegal logging and lack of attention to local wisdom values are significant triggers for the clean water crisis, soil fertility degradation, and forest destruction. Efforts to revitalise local Eco theology are crucial in dealing with these problems. By viewing nature as a sacred entity, the mother of life, and a mediation to communicate with ancestral spirits and the Supreme Being, people will increasingly respect nature or reduce the act of exploitation of nature. The role of the church, government and society is crucial to internalise local wisdom education to the younger generation so that they do not behave destructively towards nature.
