Abstract

This paper focuses on the praxis of simplicity among Minahasan affiliates of the Christian Evangelical Church in Minahasa (GMIM) as a spirituality that opposes consumeristic religion. A qualitative case study design was employed to gather data in the form of in-depth interviews, participant observation, and analysis of documents using purposely chosen congregants who always engage in simple living in family, ministry, and everyday life. Data were interpreted using thematic analysis, which was informed by the theological-hermeneutical framework. The results indicate that simplicity is not considered an absence but a planned, religious lifestyle of sufficiency, gratitude, humility, and reliance on God’s providence. In practical terms, the concept of simplicity is reflected in judicious handling of finances, low-profile consumption, non-competitive involvement in worship, and judicious use of social media. Congregants define this way of life as a protest against consumerist ideas such as extravagance, flaunting, and spiritual arrogance, which are becoming more pronounced in church activities and general society. This opposition is anchored in the merging of Minahasan cultural norms, particularly mapalus (mutual help) and the GMIM ethos of love, service, and modesty. This study concludes that the praxis of simplicity among GMIM congregants is a situational spirituality of resistance that protects and revitalizes the church’s theological identity. It provides pastoral implications for faith formation, leadership, and ecclesial practices that are useful in enabling congregants to resist religious consumerism while being involved in modern social life in the plural context of Indonesia.

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the perceptions, attitudes, and responses of the congregation of GMIM Golgota Bukit Ranomuut Permai toward mental health issues, as well as to identify the theological, social, and cultural factors shaping those responses. Using a descriptive qualitative approach with purposive sampling techniques, the research involved 26 participants drawn from church ministers (Pelsus), youths, and general congregants, selected through an open online questionnaire. The data were analyzed thematically and validated through source triangulation. The findings indicate that 96.2% of respondents had previously heard about mental health issues, reflecting a high level of awareness. However, 65.4% reported having experienced stress, anxiety, or depression in recent months, even though access to professional services remains hindered by limited knowledge (12 mentions) and fear of social stigma (8 mentions). Although 65.4% of respondents were aware of the existence of mental health services, one-third still lacked understanding of how to access them. Suggested interventions from the congregation include routine educational programs in the church, the provision of free consultations, the establishment of support groups, the cultivation of a listening culture, and structured spiritual accompaniment. The study reveals a gap between awareness and action, influenced by religious stigma and limited information. It recommends integrating mental health literacy into pastoral ministry, establishing a pastoral referral system, and fostering collaboration between the church and professional practitioners. The church is positioned as an agent of social transformation capable of providing a safe space for holistic healing—physical, psychological, and spiritual—within the framework of a theology of shalom. This research offers practical contributions to the development of contextual pastoral care and enriches academic discourse on the intersection of religion, culture, and mental health in Indonesia.

Abstract

This paper discusses how social media works as a communicative and spiritual space in Gereja Masehi Injili di Minahasa (GMIM), a synodal Protestant church in Minahasa. This study examines the application of social media in sharing church information, congregational interactions, and spiritual life. An explanatory sequential mixed-methods design was used, which entailed a survey of 34 congregants, in-depth interviews, and digital ethnography of the official accounts of GMIM. Quantitative data convey the trends of platform usage, time clocked, role, perceived spiritual influence, and involvement in online religious materials, whereas qualitative data demonstrate how leaders and members perceive the chances and threats of digital communication. The results show that social media is integrated into the life of congregations and represents a digital continuation of communal relationships, assisting in the provision of information, worship resources, and support. Meanwhile, the respondents referred to ambivalence, acknowledging social media as a source of grace and a distracter, conflict, and superficial religiosity simultaneously. The research also reveals that the digital communication used by GMIM is, to a great extent, one-sided, although the congregants want to interact more dialogically through two-way communication. The article proposes that the church should have cohesive policies on digital communication, invest in digital literacies, and unite online practices with embodied worship and diaconal action so that social media may be used as a place of proclamation, koinonia, and Christian service and not as a convenient channel to make announcements.

Abstract

Abstract This article describes family prayer traditions as practiced in the GMIM Eben Haezer Kaaten congregation as a place of spiritual growth, cultural inculturation, and pastoral care. Based on a qualitative and participatory ethnographic design comprising 15 nuclear families, in-depth interviews, participant observation, and the use of supporting documentation, this study examines how family prayer has been structured, organised, and experienced in the day-to-day life of Minahasan Christian families. The results demonstrate that family prayer has continued to be actively incorporated into the daily life of the family, particularly in the evenings or at mealtimes or even during crises, in such a way that the home is an ecclesia domestica where faith is recounted and passed down through generations. Prayer leadership is shared in differentiated forms: fathers are expected to be the spiritual heads, mothers to be consistent guardians, and children to be emerging leaders who are given responsibilities. The study also indicates that Minahasan cultural values, including mapalus, walewangko, and masarang, inform the sense of prayer and the dynamics of relations, which is transformed into a place of thankfulness, vulnerability, and solidarity. Meanwhile, the study notes that there are strong stressors, including work exhaustion, school pressure, information-related disruptions, and relationship stressors, that jeopardise the status quo of this tradition. The study finds that the reinforcement of family prayer must be carried out through purposeful pastoral accompaniment, ecclesial practices, and theological understanding of domestic spirituality as a location of Christian witness in modern Minahasa.

Abstract

This study examines the role of music in the worship of Gereja Masehi Injili di Minahasa (GMIM) as a locus where liturgy, spirituality, and cultural identity intersect. Using a qualitative case study design, data were collected through participant observation, semi-structured interviews with worship leaders, music ministers, and congregants, and an analysis of liturgical documents and song repertoires. The thematic analysis identified three major findings. First, GMIM worship is characterised by a dynamic interplay between contemporary Christian music, hymns, and traditional Minahasan forms, which together structure the liturgical flow from joyful praise to prayerful contemplation. Second, music functions as a primary medium of spiritual experience, helping congregants focus on God, articulate complex emotions, and internalise theological themes, while also revealing the risks of distraction when musical practices become performance-centred or misaligned with the liturgy. Third, congregational participation is shaped by the leadership of worship leaders and musicians, whose technical competence, spiritual maturity, and cultural sensitivity facilitate intergenerational engagement, despite differing musical preferences. The study concludes that music in GMIM worship is not a peripheral ornament but a vital aspect of pastoral ministry, theological formation, and inculturation. It recommends training for music ministers, intentional integration of traditional and contemporary repertoires, and participatory worship planning to ensure that GMIM worship remains contextually rooted and responsive to contemporary challenges.
