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.
