Abstract

The development of digital technology has had a significant impact on religious practices, including among Christians in the city of Ambon. This article discusses changes in the worship orientation of the Christian community in Ambon in the context of a rapidly developing digital culture. The presence of social media, worship streaming platforms, and digital Bible applications has shifted some of the traditional patterns of worship, which were previously centered on physical gatherings in churches, towards more flexible, personal, and virtual forms of worship. These changes not only affect personal spirituality, but also have social, cultural, and economic implications for church communities, such as the emergence of new relationship patterns, the redefinition of spiritual authority, and challenges in maintaining community unity. Using a qualitative approach through in-depth interviews, observation, and literature review, this article highlights how religion and digital culture interact in shaping the new face of Christianity in Ambon. Findings show that while digital culture expands religious access and experience, it also requires adaptive pastoral strategies to preserve the meaning of worship in this era of transformation.

Abstract

This study examines how Generation Z workers form professional identities in the digital work environment using Erving Goffman’s dramaturgical theory. Professional identity is understood as a social process shaped through interaction, self-presentation, and impression control. This research focuses on Generation Z individuals working in digital and social media-based professions. Using a qualitative approach, this study collected data through structured in-depth interviews with five Gen Z informants employed in various digital fields, including content creation, social media management, and online entrepreneurship. Data were analyzed using deductive thematic analysis based on four dramaturgical aspects: front stage, back stage, impression management, and audience segregation. The findings show that Gen Z workers actively and strategically manage their professional identity online. The front stage functions as a space for planned self-branding, while the back stage allows boundary control, emotional regulation, and identity protection. Impression management is used to maintain credibility and career sustainability through various different strategies. Audience segregation enables workers to separate different audience groups across platforms and contexts, helping them balance professional and personal matters. This study demonstrates that professional identity formation among Gen Z digital workers is a layered and reflective process, shaped by structured self- presentation and boundary management in digital spaces.
