Abstract

Shepherd leadership is often understood as a form of leadership that takes place within the Church. However, it can also be effectively implemented in other settings, such as schools. In fact, schools may be one of the most ideal environments for shepherd leadership, as they require significant daily interaction among principals, teachers, and students. Shepherd leadership is especially important in schools because a principal cannot achieve the ultimate goals of education alone. It is therefore critical to have teachers who share the school's vision and mission. The purpose of this study is to explore in greater depth how shepherd leadership can transform teachers' understanding of a Christian worldview in their teaching, and how this transformation relates to discipleship in Christ. This research collects data to reveal how shepherd leadership is implemented in the school, how teachers respond to the principal’s leadership, and how their worldviews are transformed as a result.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of digital technology has profoundly impacted social interactions and individual behaviours, particularly among students who increasingly disregard traditional social norms, contributing to a significant decline in digital ethics. This research, employing a literature review methodology, critically examines the transformative role that Christian education can play in restoring digital ethics among young people. It highlights the crucial function of Christian teachers, who are envisioned not just as educators but as mentors guiding students towards Christ’s redemption. The aim is to teach students to respond ethically in their digital interactions as a reflection of their redemption. The findings suggest that teachers who are deeply committed to Christ and who recognize that students, though marred by sin, are still made in the image of God, can effectively nurture ethical behaviour. This study emphasizes the vital importance of integrating Biblical truths as the foundational framework for ethical education in the digital age, proposing that such integration can equip students to navigate the complex ethical landscapes of modern digital environments. BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT Kemajuan pesat teknologi digital telah memberikan dampak yang mendalam terhadap interaksi sosial dan perilaku individu, khususnya di kalangan siswa yang semakin mengabaikan norma sosial tradisional, sehingga berkontribusi pada penurunan etika digital yang signifikan. Penelitian ini, dengan menggunakan metode kajian pustaka, secara kritis mengkaji peran transformatif yang dapat dimainkan oleh pendidikan Kristen dalam memulihkan etika digital di kalangan generasi muda. Penelitian ini menyoroti peran penting guru Kristen, yang tidak hanya dipandang sebagai pendidik, tetapi juga sebagai pembimbing yang menuntun siswa menuju penebusan dalam Kristus. Tujuannya adalah untuk mengajarkan siswa agar mampu merespons secara etis dalam interaksi digital mereka sebagai wujud dari pengalaman penebusan tersebut. Temuan penelitian menunjukkan bahwa guru yang memiliki komitmen mendalam kepada Kristus, dan yang menyadari bahwa siswa, meskipun telah rusak oleh dosa, masih mencerminkan gambar dan rupa Allah, dapat secara efektif menumbuhkan perilaku etis. Studi ini menekankan pentingnya mengintegrasikan kebenaran Alkitab sebagai kerangka dasar dalam pendidikan etika di era digital, dengan mengusulkan bahwa integrasi semacam ini dapat membekali siswa untuk menghadapi lanskap etika yang kompleks dalam lingkungan digital modern.

Abstract

The goal of Christian education is to enable students to connect theological concepts with their everyday lives and to apply these concepts through their actions and behavior. To achieve this, it is essential to cultivate students' critical thinking skills. However, a common challenge in the learning process is students' lack of initiative to think critically, which is often influenced by the teaching methods employed. One method that shows promise in fostering critical thinking is experiential learning. This paper aims to explore, from an epistemological perspective, how experiential learning can serve as an effective method for developing students' critical thinking abilities. The study adopts a literature review approach. Human beings are endowed by God with the capacity for reason as an expression of His grace. Epistemological concepts can support the development of this reasoning ability. However, true knowledge of God can only be attained when students base their critical thinking on the truth of God’s Word as the ultimate source of knowledge. Through experiential learning, teachers can foster student awareness by providing meaningful stimuli. This method also enables students to better fulfill cultural mandates through personal experience. Future research should include more concrete examples from relevant literature and a deeper exploration of the epistemological foundations of critical thinking. Bahasa Indonesia Abstract Tujuan dari pendidikan Kristen adalah memampukan peserta didik menghubungkan konsep teologis dengan kehidupan sehari-hari mereka serta menerapkan konsep tersebut dalam tindakan dan perilaku. Dalam rangka mencapai tujuan ini, sangat penting untuk mengembangkan keterampilan berpikir kritis peserta didik. Namun, salah satu tantangan yang umum dihadapi dalam proses pembelajaran adalah rendahnya inisiatif peserta didik berpikir secara kritis, yang seringkali dipengaruhi oleh metode pengajaran yang digunakan. Salah satu metode untuk menumbuhkan kemampuan berpikir kritis adalah pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk melakukan kajian secara epistemologis terhadap metode pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman untuk mengembangkan kemampuan berpikir kritis peserta didik. Penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan studi pustaka. Manusia diciptakan dengan kapasitas nalar sebagai anugerah dari Allah, yang mencerminkan kasih karunia-Nya. Konsep-konsep epistemologis dapat mendukung pengembangan kemampuan bernalar ini. Namun, pengetahuan sejati mengenai Allah hanya dapat dicapai apabila peserta didik mendasarkan pemikiran kritis mereka hanya pada kebenaran Firman Tuhan sebagai sumber pengetahuan yang utama. Melalui metode pembelajaran berbasis pengalaman, guru dapat menumbuhkan kesadaran peserta didik melalui stimulus dan respon yang bermakna. Metode ini juga mendorong peserta didik untuk menjalankan mandat budaya melalui pengalaman pribadinya. Penelitian selanjutnya disarankan untuk menyertakan contoh konkret dari literatur yang relevan serta eksplorasi yang lebih mendalam mengenai landasan epistemologis dari kemampuan berpikir kritis.

Abstract

This study explores the complexity of leadership succession and regeneration in a private Christian school in West Jakarta and possible ways to navigate the challenges, as the school has experienced a high turnover rate in its leadership in the past five years. Using a qualitative case study approach, this research collected the data through in-depth interviews, observations, and document analysis. Principals as well as heads of schools participated and the research results revealed a discrepancy between the educational philosophy of Christian schools and the practices of leadership succession and regeneration, lacking a specific system or strategy. Moreover, there is no formal succession and inadequate spiritual mentoring for the school leader candidates. Therefore, considering that succession is also a spiritual mandate, this study offers a contextual and values-based pathway for leadership regeneration, which includes early-stage talent mapping, structured leadership development, spiritual mentorship, and alignment with the school’s Christian philosophy to ensure the continuity of biblically grounded leadership.

Abstract

This study aims to develop an instrument to measure adolescents’ perceptions of the role of parents as faith educators in Christian families, based on the principles found in Deuteronomy 6:6–9. In facing the challenges of the VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, Ambiguity) era, the family—especially parents—plays a critical role in instilling strong faith values from an early age. This research applied a theoretical development method that included constructing a blueprint, drafting item statements, validating content through expert judgment, and testing the instrument on 260 university students. Content validity was analyzed using Aiken’s V index, while item validity was examined through the Pearson Product-Moment Correlation. All 26 items were found to be valid (r > 0.138), and the instrument demonstrated excellent reliability with a Cronbach’s Alpha value of 0.976. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) value of 0.942 indicated that the data were suitable for further factor analysis. Based on the validation and reliability results, two items were removed, resulting in a final instrument with 24 valid and reliable statements. This instrument can be effectively used to assess adolescents' perceptions of their parents’ role in faith education. Future studies are recommended to conduct exploratory factor analysis (EFA) and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) to strengthen the theoretical and structural foundation of the measurement model. Bahasa Indonesia Abstract Penelitian ini bertujuan mengembangkan sebuah instrumen untuk mengukur persepsi remaja tentang peran orang tua sebagai pendidik iman dalam keluarga Kristen, berdasarkan prinsip-prinsip yang ditemukan dalam Ulangan 6:6–9. Dalam menghadapi tantangan era VUCA (Volatilitas, Ketidakpastian, Kompleksitas, Ambiguitas), keluarga—terutama orang tua—memegang peranan penting dalam menanamkan nilai-nilai iman yang kuat sejak usia dini. Penelitian ini menerapkan metode pengembangan teori yang meliputi penyusunan kerangka kerja, penyusunan pernyataan item, validasi isi melalui penilaian ahli, dan pengujian instrumen pada 260 mahasiswa. Validitas isi dianalisis menggunakan indeks V Aiken, sedangkan validitas item diuji melalui Korelasi Product-Moment Pearson. Semua 26 item dinyatakan valid (r > 0,138), dan instrumen menunjukkan reliabilitas yang sangat baik dengan nilai Cronbach’s Alpha sebesar 0,976. Nilai Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) sebesar 0,942 menunjukkan data layak untuk dilakukan analisis faktor lebih lanjut. Berdasarkan hasil validasi dan reliabilitas, dua item dihapus sehingga instrumen akhir terdiri dari 24 pernyataan yang valid dan reliabel. Instrumen ini dapat digunakan secara efektif untuk menilai persepsi remaja terhadap peran orang tua dalam pendidikan iman. Studi lanjutan disarankan untuk melakukan analisis faktor eksploratori (EFA) dan analisis faktor konfirmatori (CFA) guna memperkuat landasan teoritis dan struktural model pengukuran.
