<![CDATA[The coastal environmental crisis is a serious problem that demands a multidimensional approach that is not only technical, but also touches on the spiritual and socio-cultural aspects of the community. This study aims to formulate a Madurese contextual ecotheology model as a strategy to strengthen coastal environmental resilience, with a case study in Kampung Pasir, Sumenep Regency. This study uses a qualitative approach with ethnographic and phenomenological methods, through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies of the socio-religious life of coastal communities. Data analysis was carried out with a thematic and interpretative approach to identify the relationship between religious values and ecological practices of the community. The results of the study indicate that theological values such as the concept of caliph, trust, prohibition fasad(damage), as well as the principles of blessing and harmony have shaped the environmental ethics that live within the community. These values are internalized through the role of religious leaders, social interaction patterns, religious traditions, and mutual cooperation mechanisms that regulate human relations with nature. This study also formulates a Madurese contextual ecotheology model that encompasses five main dimensions: theological, socio-communal, environmental education, ecological practices, and local policies. This model offers an integrative framework that connects faith, local culture, and environmental conservation strategies in a sustainable manner. This study concludes that the Madurese coastal context-based ecotheology approach has strategic potential as a guideline for strengthening environmental resilience rooted in spirituality and local wisdom, and is relevant for the development of community-based environmental policies in coastal areas of Indonesia.]]>
