Abstract

This article aims to break down the hidden barriers that make it difficult for women to become leaders like men. Gender equality has provided opportunities for men and women to receive education and empowerment, but women still experience obstacles in becoming leaders. The author responds to this problem by analyzing the Korean drama "Queen Woo" and the text of 1 Timothy 2:11-12 using the revised correlation approach. The author finds that the text of 1 Timothy 2:11-12 is Paul's sensitivity because of the honor and shame culture. Paul's command is an effort to restore the honor of men and women according to the values ​​and standards of patriarchal honor. Men drew their honor because of their work, and women drew their honor because of their manners. The drama Queen Woo shows the superior character to fight against the male monopoly on superiority. The author recommends that the church and society deconstruct the patriarchal legacy of the concept of honor and its relationship to gender. Women also need to be respected and their superiority recognized. Men and women must get equal superiority factually and through social recognition and respect.

Abstract

Christian leadership in the 21st century faces the tension between managerial expectations and spiritual authenticity. Contemporary models often emphasize strategic planning, institutional hierarchy, and charismatic influence. In contrast, biblical leadership is portrayed as emerging through divine calling, spiritual formation, and character refinement. This paper explores the concept of authentic leadership through the lens of biblical narratives using a qualitative, descriptive-theological approach. By analyzing the lives of Joseph, Moses, Joshua, Saul, David, Solomon, and Jesus Christ, the study highlights how authentic leadership in the Bible is consistently associated with suffering, humility, obedience, and divine appointment. The analysis integrates contemporary authentic leadership theory with biblical theology to construct a framework of leadership grounded in spiritual integrity. The study argues that such a model is highly relevant for contemporary church leadership and proposes a renewed understanding of ecclesiastical authority rooted in servanthood, submission to God, and moral responsibility.

Abstract

This study addresses the financial and institutional limitations faced by rural local churches in establishing Church-Owned Enterprises (Badan Usaha Milik Gereja/BUMG), with a specific focus on the Oikumene Indangsari Congregation in Banggai Regency, Central Sulawesi Province. Although the congregation does not yet operate a formal business entity, it is supported by an economically active community of entrepreneurs, indicating significant potential to support church-led economic initiatives. Employing a mixed-methods approach with an exploratory descriptive design, the research utilizes interviews, focus group discussions (FGDs), and a Guttman scale questionnaire. The findings reveal that the congregation's entrepreneurs possess strong spiritual and social commitment, substantial entrepreneurial experience, and active roles in the church’s organizational structure. Nevertheless, limitations in managerial capacity and business formalization remain challenges. The study concludes that the active participation of congregation members serves as a strategic asset for developing a BUMG, especially when supported by targeted training, mentoring, and a professional institutional framework. The BUMG holds promise as a collective platform that integrates faith-based values with economic practices, fostering both the sustainability of ministry and the financial autonomy of the local church.

Abstract

This study explores the integration of theological values into modern entrepreneurship, particularly in shaping an ethical, inclusive, and sustainable business paradigm. The background lies in the shift of business orientation from merely pursuing financial profit to embracing social responsibility, justice, and environmental sustainability. Theological principles such as stewardship, social justice, and love are considered as moral foundations that guide business decision-making. The research employs a qualitative approach, combining case study and descriptive-analytic methods. Data were collected through literature review and observation of entrepreneurial practices that integrate spiritual dimensions. Analysis was conducted interpretatively to identify patterns and meanings that emerge from theologically grounded business practices. Findings reveal that theology-based entrepreneurship extends the triple bottom line (profit, people, planet) by adding a fourth dimension: spirituality. Entrepreneurs driven by faith tend to uphold integrity, transparency, and social as well as ecological concern. Spiritual values also foster eco-friendly innovation, strengthen customer and employee loyalty, and enhance the social contribution of businesses within communities. This study concludes that the integration of theology and entrepreneurship not only opens new interdisciplinary perspectives for academia but also provides practical alternatives. Theology-based entrepreneurship can serve as a transformative agent that promotes justice, sustainability, and the well-being of all creation.

Abstract

The abundance of studies on Leadership theory and practice needs to be balanced with an explanation of Followership theory and practice, considering that followership is a critical element in Leadership studies that is rarely observed. One quite phenomenal aspect of Followership Theory is the categorization of followers initiated by Robert Kelley. Kelley stated that so far there are five categories of followers. The researcher wanted to see what the Bible's perspective is on Kelley's five categories of followers. This is very important considering that in the Bible there are quite a lot of leaders used by God but the behavior of the followers of those leaders is rarely described. This study uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach and exegesis of several biblical passages related to Followership and its implications for the practice of Christian Leadership today.

Abstract

This study examines the Greek term δοῦλος Χριστοῦ (“servant/slave of Christ”) as it appears in Paul’s letters, by exploring its socio-economic context, contextual reception, and theological transformation. Using a qualitative methodology with historical-sociological and textual-exegetical approaches, the research reconstructs the reality of slavery in the Greco-Roman and Jewish worlds of the first century while analyzing how Paul reinterpreted this symbol. The findings indicate that δοῦλος in the Roman context denoted a degraded status without civil rights, whereas in the Jewish tradition it carried an honorable nuance as the designation “servant of the Lord.” Paul transformed this term into a paradoxical identity of faith: what was considered lowly was elevated as a sign of spiritual freedom, loyalty, and devotion to Christ. The analysis of verbal aspects highlights the dual dimension of this identity—both a definitive, once-for-all decision (aorist) and an ongoing lifestyle of service (present). The study concludes that δοῦλος Χριστοῦ is not merely Paul’s personal label, but a subversive symbol that shaped the identity, spirituality, and egalitarian relationships of the early Christian community. Further research is recommended to investigate the reception of this term in other New Testament writings and early Christian literature.

Abstract

The disruption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) brings not only technological transformation but also profound anthropological and ethical challenges to our understanding of humanity and the practice of leadership. This study aims to construct a responsive Christian leadership framework by arguing that the doctrine of Imago Dei (humanity as the image of God) provides a crucial theological-ethical foundation for navigating the AI era. Using an interdisciplinary literature study and exploratory-normative conceptual analysis, this research first identifies three main challenges: (1) anthropological reductionism that reduces humans to mere data, (2) dislocation of responsibility (responsibility gap) due to black box systems, and (3) threats to the human vocation for work and creativity. In response, the study derives four operational principles from Imago Dei: the Principles of Dignity, Stewardship, Relationality, and Justice & the Common Good. These principles are then operationalized into three domains of leadership practice: (a) in strategic decision-making through the implementation of an Ethical Impact Assessment enriched with theological-anthropological considerations; (b) in building organizational culture through creating interdisciplinary dialogue spaces (technicians, ethicists, theologians) and narrative-based ethics training rooted in Biblical stories; and (c) in public engagement through advocacy for human-centric and just AI policies. As a synthesis, this research proposes the "Techno-Steward Leadership" model as an ideal paradigm, requiring deep anthropological vision, critical technological literacy, ethical courage (moral courage), and commitment to character formation. In conclusion, this study affirms that Christian leadership in the AI era is called to function as wise technological stewards, directing digital innovation to honor human dignity as Imago Dei and build the common good in society.

Abstract

This research is motivated by the need for an entrepreneurial paradigm that integrates business success with resilient spiritual and ethical values, particularly for Christian entrepreneurs in Indonesia who often face dissonance between faith and business practices. The narrative of Joseph in Genesis 37-50 is seen as a potential source for an integrative model, yet systematic study through an entrepreneurial lens remains an academic gap. Therefore, this research aims to answer the question: how can the narrative of Joseph's life be interpreted as an inspiring model of entrepreneurship and leadership for Christian entrepreneurs in Indonesia? The method used is qualitative library research with an interdisciplinary approach, hermeneutically analyzing the text of Genesis and synthesizing it with management concepts and leadership theories. The discussion constructs three main pillars of the model: (1) resilience and long-term vision as the foundation of entrepreneurial spirit, (2) integrity and the principle of stewardship as a paradigm for ethical resource management, and (3) servant leadership and reconciliation as the foundation for transformational social capital. The research conclusion indicates that these three pillars form a holistic model that can function as a reflective framework and diagnostic tool for developing entrepreneurship that is not only materially successful but also spiritually and socially meaningful within the Indonesian context.

Abstract

Fenomena post-power syndrome merupakan tantangan psikososial yang kerap muncul ketika individu mengalami kehilangan otoritas dan peran kepemimpinan, termasuk dalam konteks kepemimpinan Kristen. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk mengkaji fenomena tersebut secara teologis dan biblika dengan menjadikan Ulangan 31–34 sebagai fokus analisis utama. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif berbasis analisis biblika-teologis, yang mencakup pembacaan teks secara cermat, eksegesis naratif, serta sintesis tematik dalam kerangka kanonik dan teologis Alkitab. Sumber data meliputi teks Alkitab, literatur teologi biblika, dan kajian terpilih dalam bidang psikologi kepemimpinan yang relevan dengan isu transisi kekuasaan. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa Musa menghadapi pengalihan kepemimpinan kepada Yosua tanpa memperlihatkan disorientasi identitas maupun kerentanan spiritual yang lazim dikaitkan dengan post-power syndrome. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa kematangan spiritual, ketaatan terhadap kehendak Allah, serta pemahaman kepemimpinan sebagai mandat ilahi yang bersifat sementara berperan signifikan dalam mengantisipasi krisis pascakepemimpinan. Artikel ini mengusulkan langkah-langkah antisipatif bagi pemimpin Kristen, antara lain pembentukan spiritualitas yang matang, internalisasi teologi kekuasaan yang berorientasi pada pelayanan, serta pendampingan pastoral yang berkelanjutan dalam masa transisi kepemimpinan.
