Abstract

Domestic violence, especially that experienced by children from an early age, leaves serious and lasting psychological, emotional, and spiritual impacts. This article discusses how the process of forgiveness and reconciliation can be a means of healing for victims of domestic violence, without neglecting justice and proper protection. The primary approach uses a psychospiritual perspective based on the REACH Forgiveness model developed by Everett L. Worthington Jr. Through forgiveness, victims are encouraged to free themselves from the shackles of revenge and emotional wounds. Reconciliation is understood not as an obligation to return to the perpetrator, but rather as a restoration of inner peace to the victim. The implications of this study emphasize the importance of distinguishing forgiveness and reconciliation as two distinct processes, as well as the need for a holistic and contextual approach in assisting victims of domestic violence. In the light of Christian faith, forgiveness is a form of spiritual maturity and the first step toward complete recovery, while reconciliation is only possible if justice, security, and repentance of the perpetrator have been fulfilled.

Abstract

This study aims to investigate the effect of implementing the joyful learning method on improving the motivation to learn the Bible among students at Syalom Kindergarten in West Jakarta. The scope of the research is limited to 25 students and be conducted from January to May of the 2025/2026 academic year. The method used is descriptive qualitative within the framework of collaborative Classroom Action Research (CAR) over 2 cycles. Data collection was carried out with  observation using a motivation observation sheet, daily anecdotal records, semi-structured teacher interviews, and documentation, with motivation indicators including activity, attention, participation, and recall response. Qualitative results are presented descriptively and are reinforced by descriptive quantitative data in the form of motivation score percentages. The percentage is calculated using the formula (total motivation score obtained ÷ total maximum score) × 100%, which representing the proportion of motivation achievement relative to the ideal score. The success of the intervention is determined when motivation reaches ≥85% (very well-developed category). In Cycle I, joyful learning were implemented using an expressive storytelling strategy over three meetings. The results showed 70.59% with 20 out of 25 students categorized as motivated, but the class was still generally passive and unfocused. In Cycle II, joyful learning was integrated with puzzle games to make learning more interactive; the achievement increased to 94.12% with 24 out of 25 students motivated, and the students appeared more active and enthusiastic, although one child still had difficulty following the activities.

Abstract

The global ecological crisis has affected the sustainability of marine tourism in Bunaken National Park (BNP). Environmental degradation and unsustainable tourism practices indicate the absence of a strong ethical framework in managing coastal conservation areas. This study aims to analyze the revitalization of tourism in BNP through the ecotheological perspective of Robert P. Borrong.This research employs a qualitative method with a critical literature review of ecotheological writings and sustainable tourism studies. The findings indicate that Borrong’s ecotheology emphasizes ecological justice and human moral responsibility as partners of God in the care of creation. The novelty of this study lies in the formulation of a contextual ecotheological-based conceptual model for marine tourism revitalization specifically applied to Bunaken National Park. Practically, this study offers an ethical reference for churches, local communities, and park managers in promoting sustainable tourism governance.

Abstract

Indonesia’s environmental crisis demands a church response that is not merely practical but grounded in systematic and contextual theological reflection. Although many churches have demonstrated concern for environmental issues, such responses often remain fragmented and insufficiently integrated into a coherent ecological theological framework. This article aims to analyze the urgency of developing ecological theology as a theological foundation for Indonesian churches in addressing environmental crises sustainably.This study employs a qualitative theological literature analysis through critical dialogue with the paradigms of missio Dei, ecological justice within liberation theology, and integral ecotheology. The analysis focuses on Indonesia’s environmental crisis, ecclesial practices, and the challenges and opportunities for developing ecological theology in the Indonesian church context. The findings indicate that ecclesial responses have not yet been fully supported by systematic theological reflection, limiting their long-term transformative impact. This article contributes a contextual ecological theological framework that bridges theological reflection and ecclesial praxis in Indonesia, emphasizing the integration of faith, social justice, and ecological responsibility as an essential dimension of the church’s mission.

Abstract

This study examines the dynamics of homiletics in the posthuman era, where the proclamation of God's Word is increasingly mediated by artificial intelligence and received by individuals experiencing existential exhaustion. The research asks how artificial intelligence reshapes the nature of homiletics and to what extent the spiritual dimension of preaching can be sustained within digital environments. Accordingly, the study aims to analyze the relationship between artificial intelligence, digital media, and the proclamation of the Word from the perspective of practical theology. Employing a qualitative-descriptive approach, the research utilizes theological hermeneutics and an interdisciplinary literature review encompassing theology, philosophy of technology, and digital communication. The findings reveal that although artificial intelligence can replicate the rhetorical form and structural composition of sermons, it remains incapable of embodying the transcendent spiritual dimension without the participation of human consciousness, lived faith, and spiritual experience. The interaction between algorithmic systems and the human soul opens new horizons for theological reflection concerning divine presence in digital spaces. The study concludes that posthuman homiletics requires a reconstruction of the relationship between the Word, its communicative medium, and its hearers, while affirming that God's presence transcends technological limitations and can nevertheless be proclaimed creatively through digitally mediated platforms that retain genuine spiritual significance.

Abstract

This study explores the theological and liturgical meaning of the Epiphany celebration as a manifestation of Christ’s presence within the tradition of the Huria Kristen Batak Protestan (HKBP). In the wider Christian tradition, Epiphany is understood as the revelation of Christ to the nations seen in the visit of the Magi, His baptism in the Jordan, and His first miracle at Cana. Yet within the context of HKBP, this celebration tends to receive less emphasis compared to Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost. Using a qualitative approach, this research draws on literature review and interviews with two pastors and two congregational members. The analysis applies a liturgical hermeneutical framework based on the HKBP Agenda. The findings indicate that, theologically, Epiphany affirms Christ as the Light for all nations. However, in practice, its meaning has not been deeply rooted in the spiritual awareness of the congregation. An examination of HKBP’s liturgical texts reveals a worship structure rich in theological symbols that proclaim Christ’s presence. Therefore, a renewed understanding of Epiphany is needed, one that is nurtured through liturgical education, the enrichment of worship symbols, and a stronger emphasis on Christ’s universal mission in the life of the church community.

Abstract

Generation Z is a digital generation for whom social media plays a significant role in identity formation. This condition requires churches to develop youth ministries that correspond to the spiritual needs and distinctive characteristics of this generation. The Protestant Karo Batak Church (GBKP) responds to this need through Jam Doa PERMATA, or the PERMATA Prayer Hour, a Bible study method that encourages young people to slow down, reflect, and experience the presence of God contemplatively. This study aims to analyze Jam Doa PERMATA as a form of contemplative youth ministry within the context of Generation Z’s digital life. It employs a qualitative method based on observations conducted in a local church, using Mark Yaconelli’s theory of contemplative youth ministry as the analytical framework. The findings indicate that Jam Doa PERMATA provides a space for young people to express their concerns, experience silence, and recognize and interpret the presence of God in their lives. The provision of contemplative space in fellowship and Bible study also demonstrates the church’s involvement in the spiritual formation of Generation Z. Therefore, Jam Doa PERMATA can be further developed as a relevant, contextual, and sustainable model of youth ministry amid the continuing development of the digital world.

Abstract

This study aims to examine the transformation of the meaning and function of the Temple during the Intertestamental Period and its relevance for the contemporary church. The research employs a qualitative method through literature review, historical analysis, and theological-comparative study of biblical sources and relevant academic literature. The findings indicate that during the Intertestamental Period, the Temple functioned not only as a center of worship but also as a center of national identity, religious education, and the social and political life of the Jewish people. In early Christian tradition, the understanding of the Temple underwent a significant transformation through the teachings of Jesus Christ, who presented Himself as the true Temple, and through the teachings of the Apostle Paul, who viewed the church and believers as the spiritual Temple in which the Holy Spirit dwells. This transformation shifted the focus from a physical building to a community of faith living in Christ. The study concludes that the concept of the Temple remains theologically relevant for the contemporary church, particularly in understanding God's presence, holiness, the unity of believers, and the church's role as a center for spiritual formation.

Abstract

This study examines Christian Religious Education (CRE) learning based on Proverbs 3:5-6 as an effort to strengthen students’ spirituality amid the challenges of the digital era. The study is motivated by the weakening internalization of spiritual values, moral crises among students, and the tendency of CRE learning to focus primarily on cognitive and theoretical aspects. The objective of this study is to analyze the theological relevance of Proverbs 3:5-6 and synthesize its application within CRE learning to support students’ spiritual formation. This research employs a qualitative approach using library research by analyzing books, scholarly articles, and relevant theological sources. The novelty of this study lies in the development of a conceptual CRE learning framework that integrates the two central principles of Proverbs 3:5-6, namely “trust in the Lord with all your heart” and “lean not on your own understanding,” as reflective and contextual pedagogical foundations. The literature synthesis indicates that these values are relevant for fostering spiritual maturity, moral character, self-control, and students’ ability to face spiritual challenges in the digital age. The findings suggest that integrating the theological principles of Proverbs 3:5-6 can provide a conceptual contribution to the development of CRE learning that emphasizes students’ spiritual transformation.

Abstract

Dormitory life constitutes an essential component in promoting the success of student education. Students come from diverse cultural, familial, personal, intellectual, value-based, and spiritual backgrounds. Such diversity is an inseparable aspect of residential student life. On the one hand, diversity can enrich communal living experiences; on the other hand, it may give rise to interpersonal conflicts. Conflicts that are not managed effectively have the potential to hinder students’ holistic development. This study employs a library research approach to examine conflict management within student dormitories. The findings indicate that interpersonal conflict among students is a common and potential occurrence in dormitory settings due to the diversity of students’ backgrounds. Effective conflict management should be grounded in strong educational philosophical foundations—namely holistic, collaborative, and transformative principles—in order to foster a harmonious residential environment and support students’ comprehensive development. Based on a synthesis of the literature, the collaborative conflict management style emerges as an effective strategy for managing conflicts constructively by generating solutions that accommodate the interests of all parties involved. Furthermore, the collaborative approach is considered the most relevant because it promotes dialogue, cooperation, and the pursuit of mutually beneficial solutions among students. This article contributes practical recommendations for dormitory administrators in building healthy and supportive residential communities.
