Abstract

The emergence of the progressive Christian movement has sparked controversy and is considered a deviation from traditional Christian teachings. However, on the other hand, progressive Christianity is also seen as an effort to contextualize the Christian faith within the ever-evolving realities of the times. This research uses a qualitative method with a descriptive approach to illustrate the phenomenon of progressive Christianity. The aim of this study is to explore progressive Christianity and its development from the perspective of constructive-decolonial theology, thereby opening a more constructive paradigm in line with contemporary human life. Progressive Christianity is viewed as a "liminal space," or between old traditions and renewal in contemporary Christian theology. Constructive-decolonial theology are used as perspectives to understand progressive Christianity, where constructive theology encourages the Christian faith to exhibit dynamic openness. Progressive Christianity is a movement that has emerged in response to social, cultural, and theological changes. Openness and willingness to listen to and engage in constructive dialogue amidst differences are necessary, making liminality a space for ongoing theological creativity and transformation.

Abstract

Implementation of Christian religious education still lacks creativity in rural schools. Inland schools are an important asset for the nation's progress. The spearhead of the nation is education itself. This research aims to provide solutions for schools in rural areas to implement relevant and creative Christian religious education. This research used a qualitative method with a descriptive approach, and then the researcher interviewed one of the educators who teaches at SDN 26 Simpang Hulu, West Kalimantan. The results of the research found that (i) an educator's creativity provides a strong impetus for existing learning, (ii) Educators must also teach with a contextual approach, not just a textual one, and (iii) Implementation of Christian religious education can be carried out if an educator can provide learning without the existence of a GAP or dividing wall.

Abstract

The COVID-19 epidemic has enabled students to study and teachers to teach remotely. Teachers must be able to modify course materials so that students are taught the proper methods. Research on education during the epidemic reveals two broad patterns. 1. According to current research, instructors are a cause of worry for pupils during the epidemic. 2. In place of instructors, both studies stress the importance of parents being involved in their children's education. This report aims to address the issue of instructors and students not communicating effectively throughout the epidemic. Primary and secondary data were used, and research informants included instructors, students, parents, and security personnel. Participants in the study were chosen using the direct experience criterion.

Abstract

Education is one of the needs that is needed by every individual and is a very important thing, because education has an important role and has a big impact on human life. In the world of education, of course, it cannot be separated from various problems which certainly require an answer as a solution to existing problems. One of the topics of discussion in the world of education at this time is regarding the nature of self-efficacy or self-efficacy that exists in students. According to several journals, several studies have been conducted on self-efficacy in students and the results found that self-efficacy has a significant impact on students, both in terms of thinking patterns, ways of learning and doing assignments, and influencing student learning outcomes. In addition, self-efficacy plays an important role for each individual, so that they are able to discover and develop their potential (Rustika 2012). Even though this self-efficacy has a positive impact on student learning outcomes, in reality not all students have this self-efficacy themselves. Because of that, another party is needed to generate self-efficacy in a student. Therefore, this paper discusses "Self efficacy: can it increase student achievement?"

Abstract

Character formation has become a central focus of education, particularly in the modern era marked by complex moral and social challenges. Christian values—such as love, integrity, responsibility, and respect for others—play a crucial role as the foundational basis for shaping students' character. This study aims to analyse the application of Christian values in character development and their impact on students’ personal, social, and spiritual lives. Employing a qualitative descriptive method, data were gathered through interviews, observation, and literature review. The findings reveal that the integration of Christian values in education—through moral-based curricula, the example set by teachers, and the presence of Christian communities—contributes significantly to the formation of students who are ethical, responsible, and possess integrity. Furthermore, these values empower students to act as agents of change within society. This study affirms the importance of value-based Christian education in cultivating morally grounded individuals who remain relevant in navigating the complexities of the modern era.

Abstract

Student fellowship and discipleship play a significant role in increasing Christian students' learning interest. This study aims to explore the effectiveness of student fellowship and discipleship strategies in building learning motivation through spiritual and academic approaches. The research employs a descriptive qualitative method using in-depth interviews, observations, and document studies within Christian student groups in schools and church communities. The findings reveal that student fellowship creates a collaborative learning environment, while discipleship provides personal mentoring to strengthen students' character and sense of responsibility. Group discussions, communal prayers, and structured mentoring have proven effective in enhancing both learning interest and spiritual maturity among students. The discussion emphasizes the integration of faith-based values into the learning process as a holistic and effective approach. In conclusion, student fellowship and discipleship are relevant strategies for shaping Christian students with high learning motivation and strong character.

Abstract

In the world of education, it is necessary to study innovative learning methods to achieve better education. Without innovative and creative learning methods, the goals of Christian religious education cannot be achieved properly. Because the success of Christian religious education actually lies in the cooperation of teachers and students in maximizing the desired teaching. Learning to understand the contents of the Bible requires innovation and appropriate methods to produce good quality learning and be able to improve understanding of the material and its implementation in today's life. It is known that the author examines the role of storytelling and discussion learning in understanding the contents of the Bible for students and how to implement it in today's life. The objectives of studying the role of the storytelling learning method and discussion of Bible stories are (1) To see the significance of increasing students' understanding in understanding the contents of the Bible, (2) To evaluate the increase in students' ability to implement Bible stories in today's life. The results of direct observation research in class carried out in 2 research cycles can be concluded as follows: (1) Students' ability to understand Bible story material can be improved through storytelling and discussion learning models. In the pre-cycle, students' ability to understand the material was 15%, increasing in cycle I by 78%, while in cycle II it was 85%. Thus, the application of learning to understand Bible stories through storytelling and discussion learning methods is very effective in improving students' ability to understand the material presented by the teacher. (2) Students' learning achievements also increase after implementing learning through storytelling and discussion learning methods. This can be seen from the results of the percentage of learning completion, both during the mid-semester evaluation and the final semester evaluation.

Abstract

Mental health is an important issue and is one way to achieve a golden Indonesia in 2045. However, in Indonesia, the issue has not received much attention. The authors in this study try to discuss mental health by linking it to the health of faith. The authors found that having healthy faith is the key to mental health. Through social analysis of Matthew 9:20-22, it can be seen that the story of the bleeding woman is about mental health. Even though she is experiencing very heavy suffering, a bleeding woman can still have mental health because of the faith she has. The healthy faith that she has already has a big impact on her mental health. This is clearly seen through Jesus' expression towards her, "...your faith has saved you..." (Matt. 9:22). The word "save" in the text apparently has various translations. Through semantic domain analysis of the words "save” or “sesoken", it turns out that they contain the meaning "to heal". In this way, through social and semantic domain analysis of the word “sesoken” in Matthew 9:22, it becomes clear that healthy faith is the key to mental health.

Abstract

The Eucharist, one of the seven sacraments in the Catholic Church, holds a central and pivotal role in Christian life. Through this sacred ritual, Christians find communion with Christ, who is presented in the consecrated bread and wine. The celebration of the Eucharist is fundamental to the spiritual journey of believers. When a child receives their first communion, the church marks this significant milestone with great enthusiasm. Simultaneously, parents also take part in the celebration. This article explores the diverse ways in which Flores parents in East Nusa Tenggara celebrate their child's first communion. This research employed ethnography as the research methodology, with observations and interviews as the tool to collect data. Our findings revealed various ways of celebrating the first communion within the community. Among then, parties were the prevailing mode of celebration. Each celebration carried both positive and negative implications. While parties fostered familial prestige, they could also be wasteful and fail to prioritize child-friendliness. Regrettably, these festivals often lean more toward adult-oriented gatherings rather than child-centered or spiritually enriching events. As the conclusion, the First Communion ceremony among the Flores people transcended their religious practice; it transformed into a joyous occasion that involved the entire family and served as a social gathering. Given the potential drawbacks of excessive partying, the church should implement a pastoral strategy that emphasizes comprehensive family faith education and eucharistic understanding.

Abstract

The flipped classroom method is a very effective learning method applied in emergency conditions such as the pandemic that has just passed. However, in general, this flipped classroom method is only applied to schools in urban areas because of the very supportive facilities such as strong internet networks, other electronic facilities such as computers, laptops, smart phones and so on. While the condition of schools with various limitations of internet networks, electricity, computers, laptops and smart phones is very difficult in the application of this flipped classroom learning method. That is why the researchers agreed to discuss the implementation of the flipped classroom method especially for schools in rural areas. Various limitations owned by rural schools often hamper the teaching and learning process so that learning objectives cannot be realized properly. The purpose of this study is to present practical steps in the teaching and learning process using the flipped classroom method in rural areas, find the obstacles and solutions so that it can help teachers and students in rural areas. The method used in this research is qualitative with a library study approach. The result of the research on the implementation of flipped classroom method in rural areas is that the flipped classroom method can be implemented in rural areas with all its limitations and constraints.
