Abstract

This study examines the high levels of stress experienced by caregivers of cancer patients at the Indonesian Cancer Foundation in East Java, resulting from physical, emotional, and social burdens, as well as the lack of structured psychological support. Employinga qualitative phenomenological approach, this research explores caregivers’ subjective experiences through in-depth interviews and participant observation, and analyzes the data using Colaizzi’s method. Mindfulness, based on Kabat-Zinn’s (2003) theory, was implemented as an intervention, with indicators including present-moment awareness, acceptance, non-judgmental attitude, and self-compassion. The results show that mindfulness training significantly enhances self-awareness, reduces emotional reactivity, and fosters acceptance and self-compassion among caregivers. This intervention strengthens adaptive capacities in coping with stress, improves caregivers’ quality of life, and enhances the quality of patient care.

Abstract

This study examines the role and procedure of resolving business disputes through District Courts in Indonesia. As a sector that supports the country's economy, business disputes in Indonesia often occur even though there is a contract that regulates the relationship between the relevant parties. The District Court as a law enforcement agency has the authority to resolve business disputes, although there are restrictions if the dispute resolution has been agreed upon through non-litigation channels such as arbitration. This study uses a normative legal research method, by analyzing applicable legal regulations, and conducting a case study at the Tarutung District Court, North Sumatra.  Although the District Court plays an important role in the resolution of business disputes, there is no specific procedure for business disputes compared to other civil disputes in the litigation pathway.

Abstract

This study examines Genesis 19:8 in the context of trauma theology, highlighting the relationship between sexual abuse and sexual deviance as an inherited impact of sin. Lot offered his daughters to his attackers, reflecting the breakdown of family values ​​and protection. This action is analyzed as a form of compromise to holiness, which opens up space for the ongoing cycle of trauma and deviance. Through the approach of biblical exposition and pastoral psychology, this article argues that the wounds caused by sexual sin not only affect individuals, but also create a legacy of wounds between generations. The results of this study are expected to enrich the church's understanding of the importance of healing from trauma and the need for compassionate shepherding. This study uses a hermeneutic approach to examine the historical, cultural, and theological contexts in Genesis 19.

Abstract

Digital spiritual music has become a rapidly growing phenomenon in the modern era, not only as a means of worship, but also as a medium for spiritual counseling. This study aims to explore the role of digital spiritual music in providing strengthening, comfort, and restoration of the soul from a theological and pastoral perspective. Based on theological principles and biblical stories such as David's musical service to Saul (1 Samuel 16:23), it is concluded that music can be an effective means of non-verbal counseling service. With a qualitative approach and literature review, it was found that spiritual music contains spiritual power that can touch the depths of human emotions, especially in facing life crises. The biblical perspective and pastoral care show that music can be an effective non-verbal counseling tool. The church and pastoral care givers need to see this potential as part of a service strategy that is relevant to the digital generation.
