Abstract

Awareness of the Kingdom of God demands a holistic transformation within the lives of believers. This transformation encompasses not only the spiritual dimension but also the renewal of mindset and practical actions that align with Gospel values. This study, entitled "Mindset Revolution: Relationship and Participation for the Kingdom of God", seeks to explore the theological significance of transforming the mindset of believers as a key foundation for realizing the Kingdom of God on earth. The research employs a qualitative method with a theological-biblical approach, drawing on literature review, biblical text analysis, and critical engagement with contextual theological works. The findings reveal three main points. First, synchronizing the human mindset with divine wisdom requires the renewal of the mind and a paradigm shift from an ego-centered to a theocentric orientation, grounded in love, truth, and divine justice. Second, the relationship between God, humanity, and the world is understood as an interconnected framework, where God is the source of life, humanity is called to be both partner and steward of creation, and the world serves as the arena for the actualization of the Kingdom of God. Third, human participation is realized in three dimensions: personal (faithfulness and holiness of life), social (solidarity and justice), and ecological (preservation and restoration of creation). In conclusion, the mindset revolution is not merely a theoretical concept but a transformative and practical movement that calls for active participation of believers in manifesting the Kingdom of God within social, moral, and ecological realities.

Abstract

The paradigm of Christian educational management in the contemporary era is grounded in theological and philosophical foundations that affirm the necessity of orienting all educational management processes toward the holistic formation of the human person according to the values of the Kingdom of God. This study analyzes the paradigm of Christian educational management by integrating theological, philosophical, and contemporary management perspectives. A qualitative approach based on an in-depth literature review is employed, examining sources in the theology of education, Christian philosophy of education, and modern management theory to map the construction and transformation of the Christian educational management paradigm. The findings indicate that theological concepts such as imago Dei, the cultural mandate, and the spirituality of education serve as normative foundations within Christian educational management. The reformulation of the paradigm emerges through dialogue between theological values and modern management theories, producing a managerial approach that is more adaptive, integrative, and aligned with contemporary societal dynamics. This reformulation also carries significant epistemological implications for the aims of Christian education, particularly in strengthening holistic, transformational, and competence-oriented orientations. Furthermore, the paradigm's reformulation signals a notable epistemological shift toward a model of education that is holistic, transformative, and competence-driven while retaining its theological identity. The study underscores the importance of synthesizing faith, rationality, and managerial praxis in advancing Christian educational management in the modern era.
