Abstract

The main focus of the study is to examine the relevance of the spirit of zelus animarum (the spirit of saving souls) according to Vincent a Paulo for the catechists in proclaiming the Gospel of God. In the present days, the catechists have faced various challenges such as secularization, globalization, and moral crisis, and so on. In the context of those challenges, the spirit of zelus animarum experienced by Saint Vincent a Paulo becomes so relevant to the life, work and the preaching of the catechists. The study was done by using a literature study methods. Literature data was analyzed using a content analysis technique. The aims of the study were to explore the relevance of the spirit of zelus animarum for catechists to proclaim the gospel of God, and to determine how far the catechists have appreciated the spirit of zelus animarum throughout their work of service and the proclamation of the gospel of God. The results of the study indicated that the spirit of zelus animarum is an important source of strength and motivation for catechists to proclaim the Gospel of God in a more contextual and creative way in the changing society.

Abstract

This study examines the intersubjective relationship between humans and nature in the context of the ecological crisis caused by illegal mining through a moral-theological interpretation of Genesis 1:28 in the light of Laudato Si’. The research addresses the tendency of anthropocentric hermeneutics that interprets the biblical mandate to “subdue” and “rule” the earth as legitimization for exploitative domination over nature. Using a qualitative descriptive method with theological-hermeneutical and literature study approaches, this research analyzes biblical texts, Church documents, and philosophical reflections on intersubjectivity and ecological ethics. The findings show that Genesis 1:28, when interpreted within the broader narrative of creation and in relation to Genesis 2:15, does not justify destructive exploitation but emphasizes moral responsibility, stewardship, and ecological solidarity. Illegal mining reflects a distorted “I–It” relationship in which nature is reduced to a mere economic object devoid of intrinsic value. In contrast, an intersubjective perspective views humans and nature as part of a dialogical communion of creation grounded in God’s sustaining presence. The study concludes that the ecological crisis caused by illegal mining is fundamentally a relational and spiritual crisis requiring ecological conversion and the restoration of harmonious relationships among humans, nature, and God.

Abstract

This study departs from the premise that the Christian family as ecclesia domestica is confronted with structural and multidimensional economic pressures. Low financial literacy, the expansion of consumerist culture, technological unemployment, customary demands, and currents of secularization generate vulnerabilities that affect sacramental stability, relational cohesion, and the continuity of children’s faith formation. The research aims to identify the determining factors of family economic crisis, to evaluate its pastoral–theological consequences, and to formulate ecclesial responses within the horizon of Catholic Social Teaching. The study employs a qualitative approach through library research by analytically integrating magisterial documents and empirical findings. The results reveal the emergence of an economic vulnerability trap, manifested in increasing marital conflict, long-term labor migration, declining liturgical participation, and the weakening of intergenerational faith transmission. Conversely, Eucharistic spirituality, collaborative financial governance, and empowerment-oriented diakonia correlate with greater family resilience and renewed ecclesial engagement. Therefore, strengthening faith-based financial literacy and integrative family accompaniment becomes an urgent pastoral priority.

Abstract

This study aims to describe the role of Catholic religious education teachers in shaping and enhancing students' discipline and solidarity. This study used a qualitative approach. There were 9 informants in this study, consisting of the principal, two Catholic religious education teachers, and six students. Data collection methods used interviews, observations, and documentation studies. Informants were interviewed separately at different times. Data analysis techniques were carried out through the processes of data reduction, data presentation, and conclusions. The results of the data analysis revealed that Catholic religious education teachers have played a significant role in shaping and enhancing students' discipline and social character. The strategies they use include demonstrating disciplined behavior to students and the entire school community, engaging in dialogue and providing reflective guidance to students. In addition, they also design religious and social activities that involve students. In carrying out their roles, Catholic religious education teachers also face obstacles and challenges, both related to the availability of time to guide students and the diversity of lifestyles in each student's family environment. These challenges are overcome through a collaborative approach between teachers, parents, and the school community. Based on these findings, further research and development of strategies to enhance the role of Catholic religious education teachers in the future is needed.

Abstract

This study aims to identify the catechetical strategies that need to be developed in order to realize a kerygmatic and missionary synodal Church within the lives of the faithful, particularly in the context of a diaspora Church and contemporary evangelization challenges. The methodology employed in this paper is library research, gathering data from relevant ecclesiastical documents, books, and journal articles, which are subsequently analyzed qualitatively using descriptive analysis techniques. The findings of this study demonstrate that to address contemporary evangelization challenges and the context of the diaspora Church, the necessary catechetical strategies to be developed entail revitalizing basic Christian communities (Kelompok Basis Gerejawi) and developing digital community catechesis, particularly for the faithful who face geographical and temporal constraints in gathering physically.

Abstract

This study examines the value of sacrifice in the Eucharist and its relevance to altar server ministry through a study of altar server guidebooks. The problem addressed in this study is the lack of material in altar server guidebooks that explicitly teaches the value of sacrifice in the Eucharist. The scope of this study includes altar server guidebooks, Church documents related to the Eucharist and liturgical ministers, and journal articles relevant to the topic. This study aims to obtain an overview of the content of altar server guidebooks and the extent to which the value of sacrifice in the Eucharist and its relevance to altar server ministry are discussed in these guidebooks. The methodology used in this study is a qualitative method with a literature review. The literature review is a series of activities related to collecting library data, reading, recording, and organizing research materials. The results of this literature review indicate that there is a lack of specific material that systematically helps altar servers develop an appreciation of the value of sacrifice in the Eucharist, particularly in the form of catechesis on the sacrament and Eucharistic ministers. To enable altar servers to emulate Christ's sacrificial spirit, catechetical materials are needed to guide them in recognizing, understanding, and internalizing the value of that sacrifice. The author proposes a catechetical module for altar servers on the theme of the value of sacrifice in the Eucharist. The hope is that these servers will be increasingly able to internalize Christ's sacrifice in the Eucharist through their service.

Abstract

This study explores the perceptions of Catholic religion teachers and students regarding the implementation of Catholic religious education in schools and the challenges in fostering students’ character development. The research was conducted in four senior high schools in Kupang City, involving four Catholic religion teachers and 276 students. A mixed-method approach was used through structured interviews and questionnaire surveys. The findings reveal that Catholic religious education not only emphasizes doctrinal knowledge but also focuses on forming noble character and Christian values, including honesty, responsibility, discipline, respect, and care. Teachers serve as educators, spiritual guides, and role models by integrating moral values into classroom learning and extracurricular religious activities. Students generally expressed positive perceptions, acknowledging that teachers provide exemplary behavior, guide moral development, and encourage tolerance and ethical awareness. Several challenges were identified, such as limited facilities and learning resources, low student interest in religious subjects, the small number of Catholic students in public schools, and administrative workloads that reduce preparation time. Despite these obstacles, teachers remain committed and adaptive in creating meaningful learning experiences. The study highlights the importance of institutional support, improved facilities, relevant teaching materials, reduced administrative burdens, and contextual, technology-based learning strategies to strengthen character formation through Catholic religious education.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the gap between the ideal expectations of student responsibility and the reality of behavior in the field. The phenomenon of low student responsibility at SDI Meni Lontong was identified through the inability to complete tasks on time, low interest in learning, and the negative influence of technology abuse. This problem requires pedagogical strategies that not only touch on cognitive aspects but also affective and psychomotor aspects so that the value of responsibility is transformed into spontaneous habits. The purpose of this study is to describe the strategies teachers use to instill responsible character, identify supporting and inhibiting factors, and formulate adaptive solutions to improve student academic discipline. This study uses a descriptive qualitative method with a postpositivist approach. Data were collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation at SDI Meni Lontong. Data validity was tested through source and technique triangulation, while data analysis was carried out through the stages of reduction, presentation, and conclusion drawing. The results of the study show that teachers apply comprehensive strategies that include structured assignments, daily habituation mechanisms such as prayer and morning assemblies, and the integration of values into extracurricular activities such as scouting and sports. Other important findings highlight the role of teachers as living exemplars and the effectiveness of constructive responses through verbal appreciation in strengthening student motivation. The study concludes that character building in responsibility is successfully achieved through the integration of academic discipline, environmental hygiene management, and active collaboration with parents, thereby creating a transformative educational ecosystem for students' intellectual, emotional, and moral dimensions.

Abstract

The primary focus of this paper is to examine the impact of AI development on human cognitive abilities. Humans are rational beings with the ability to continually adapt both intellectually and creatively to meet the needs and advancements of the times. However, in recent decades, human cognitive abilities have been declining, particularly among children in school, with many exhibiting symptoms of “brain rot.” “brain decay” a phenomenon influenced by the unwise and inappropriate use of AI. This is because AI systems operate by providing convenience to the human brain through various advanced artificial intelligence features; thus, if used indiscriminately without limits, the human brain ceases to be productive and is no longer utilized to its fullest potential for thinking or conceptualizing. It is this concern that subsequently prompted the author to examine this issue, whether Artificial Intelligence is an intellectual innovation or merely intellectual hypocrisy. Nick Bostrom, a philosopher of technology, views AI through the lens of human-defined objectives. Additionally, Nick Bostrom examines AI ontologically, given that AI’s functional capabilities surpass those of humans, necessitating that humans use AI wisely. Ultimately, this research will broaden the perspective that, ontologically, AI is a tool to assist humans in developing life, not a tool to deceive the public in research.
