Abstract

This study examines the theological thought of Christian education by Robert Raikes as the pioneer of Sunday School within its historical context and its contribution to the development of Christian education. The purpose of this research is to reveal the theological background and motivations behind Raikes' initiation of church-based education and its impact on society and the church today. The method used is a literature study with a descriptive qualitative approach, analyzing historical and theological sources. The findings show that Raikes had a deep concern for the social and moral condition of poor children in 18th century England, which led him to establish Sunday Schools as a means of religious and character education. Raikes' educational thoughts and practices became a crucial foundation for the development of modern Christian education. The implication of this research is the need for today’s churches and Christian educational institutions to emulate Raikes' spirit of service and social concern in delivering transformative education.

Abstract

This study examines the development of Christological understanding in various cultural, historical and social contexts. Christology, as the study of the person and work of Jesus Christ, is central to the Christian faith and influences mission and religious practice. This study analyzes the basic understanding of Christology, its relationship to mission, its role in cultural contexts, and its development from the first Christian generation to contemporary life. Christological challenges identified include the tension between Jesus' humanity and divinity, and the contextualization of Christ's teachings in a pluralistic society. The findings show that a comprehensive christological understanding can bridge cultural differences and enrich interfaith dialog. The study also underscores the importance of applying Christological principles in daily life to create positive social impact and strengthen mission commitments.

Abstract

This study aims to find out the social moral values ​​contained in the soro noto cultural tradition in the Jontona village community. The social moral values ​​contained in the cultural tradition will be juxtaposed with the theory of Confucian philosophy. The juxtaposition will be a compass for researchers to find the content of social moral values ​​contained in the soro noto cultural tradition. This study actually uses two methods, namely the interview method and literature review. So far, the researcher's investigation has found that the social moral values ​​contained in the soro noto cultural tradition based on the Confucian philosophy are the values ​​of solidarity, the value of kindness and the value of responsibility. In fact, the values ​​that have been mentioned can be used as life lessons for someone to become more mature in living in a community and strengthening the bonds of brotherhood and family in the social environment.

Abstract

Tulisan ini membahas pendekatan refleksi teologis menggunakan metode lingkaran pastoral dalam konteks pendidikan Kristen. Lingkaran pastoral, yang terdiri dari tahapan melihat, menilai, bertindak, dan merayakan, menjadi alat yang efektif untuk mengintegrasikan pengalaman hidup dengan ajaran Kristiani. Pendekatan ini bertujuan agar pendidikan Kristen tidak hanya bersifat teoritis, tetapi juga membentuk karakter, spiritualitas, dan kepekaan sosial peserta didik. Dalam menghadapi tantangan globalisasi dan kompleksitas sosial, refleksi teologis ini memberikan ruang bagi peserta didik untuk memahami iman secara kontekstual dan menjadi agen perubahan dalam masyarakat. Dengan penerapan yang tepat, pendidikan Kristen berbasis lingkaran pastoral dapat melahirkan individu yang memiliki iman kuat serta komitmen nyata terhadap nilai-nilai Kerajaan Allah.

Abstract

This article examines in depth the relationship between the outward form and the spiritual essence of the Church in the context of contemporary Christianity. The church is not only understood as a physical structure with buildings, organizational systems, and orderly worship, but also as a spiritual community that reflects the love of Christ, the presence of God, and a missiological calling in the world. An imbalance between external aspects and spiritual substance can lead to disorientation of church functions, both in the aspect of service and in the meaning of the faith of the people. Excessive focus on form can make the church spiritually dry, while neglect of order and form can lead to chaos in church life. Through a qualitative approach with a literature study method, this article examines the thoughts of several theological figures such as Miroslav Volf, who emphasizes the church as a reflection of the Trinitarian relationship; Lesslie Newbigin, who offers the perspective of the church as an institution, community of the word, and communion of the Spirit; and Stephen Suleeman, who highlights the role of the church as an agent of social and spiritual transformation in Indonesia. The research also considers contemporary challenges, such as the development of digital technology, shifting social values, and the declining interest of younger generations in formal religious institutions. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of maintaining a balance between the form and essence of the church in order to remain relevant, contextual, and faithful to the faith.

Abstract

Christian Religious Education (CRE) not only functions as a means of delivering theological teachings, but also as a strategic medium in developing students' soft skills. This article aims to explore how Christian moral values ​​such as love, honesty, empathy, and justice can be integrated into learning practices to shape students' character and interpersonal skills. Through a qualitative-descriptive approach, this study collected data through observation, interviews, and documentation studies. The results show that PAK, through activities such as group discussions, social services, spiritual reflection, and project-based learning, contributes significantly to developing students' communication, leadership, cooperation, and emotional intelligence skills. The role of teachers as facilitators and moral role models is a key factor in the success of this process. Thus, PAK not only enriches the spiritual aspect, but also prepares students to become resilient and integral individuals in social life. The integration of faith values ​​with life skills is a strong foundation in forming a generation of Christians who are able to answer the challenges of the 21st century.

Abstract

This study aims to explore the relationship between work motivation and discipline on the performance achievement of Catholic Religious Education (PAK) teachers in the Semarang region. The research uses a quantitative survey approach, collecting data from 15 PAK teachers through a validated questionnaire. The instruments used to measure work motivation are based on Maslow’s hierarchy of needs for the motivational aspect, while discipline is measured using indicators developed by Rivai, and performance achievement is evaluated based on parameters defined by Robbins. The findings show that motivational drive contributes 50.5% to performance achievement (R² = 0.505, p = 0.003). This indicates that work motivation has a significant impact on performance, although its contribution is lower compared to discipline. In contrast, discipline contributes more significantly to performance achievement, accounting for 66.2% (R² = 0.662, p = 0.000). This suggests that discipline is a more dominant factor in improving the performance of Catholic Religious Education teachers, as discipline is critical in achieving optimal performance. Simultaneous analysis reveals that the combination of motivation and discipline explains 72.6% of the variation in performance achievement (R² = 0.726, F = 13.893, p = 0.000). This result indicates that both variables are significantly related to performance achievement when considered together. However, partial tests show that only discipline has a significant independent impact on teacher performance, with p = 0.121, while motivation does not have a significant effect when considered separately. This study concludes that discipline functions as the main mediator in the relationship between work motivation and performance achievement. Therefore, it is essential to strengthen discipline in efforts to improve teacher performance, particularly in the context of Catholic Religious Education.

Abstract

The digital era has brought profound transformations in religious life, creating both opportunities and challenges for the younger generation of Christians in maintaining their faith. The Toraja Church Youth Fellowship (PPGT) of the Buntu Masakke Congregation is one such community struggling to maintain the steadfastness of its youth's faith amidst the tide of globalization, the temptations of materialism, worldly positions, and the increasingly prevalent dynamics of interfaith romance. This reality drives the need for a faith training strategy that is relevant, contextual, and utilizes the potential of digital technology wisely. This study aims to implement an effective faith training strategy for PPGT through the use of digital media to produce church youth who not only unleash strength in faith, but also grow spiritually and are able to serve in creative and impactful ways in the modern era. This study used a four-month practicum method involving 22 active participants. Three training modules were implemented in stages: (1) Rooted in God's Word in the Digital Age, which encourages the use of Bible applications and digital devotionals; (2) Growing in Christ's Character Amidst Worldly Temptations, which emphasizes the values of integrity, faithfulness, and holiness; and (3) Serving with Creativity and Relevance in the Digital Age, which invites young people to produce digital content with spiritual value. The results of the study showed significant success, with 95% achieving “rootedness,” 80% achieving “growth,” and 86% achieving “serving.” In fact, 63.6% of participants experienced spiritual transformation and are now active as digital ministry drivers. These findings confirm that digital media, when utilized strategically and in harmony with Christian values, can be an effective tool in fostering the faith of the younger generation. Therefore, the church needs to develop a sustainable and contextual digital training model to strengthen the role of young people in current and future ministry.

Abstract

Learning strategies are both a systematic approach and an art for managing the learning process so that learning objectives can be achieved effectively and efficiently. As a method, learning strategies are designed based on specific principles and rules derived from learning theory and educational research. This makes learning strategies a distinct field of knowledge that can be studied, developed, and applied scientifically. As an art, learning strategies demonstrate an educator's ability to creatively and flexibly utilize various learning resources, methods, and media according to student characteristics and the learning environment. A teacher who possesses sensitivity and intuition in managing learning can create a pleasant atmosphere and motivate students to be active and independent in their learning. Without a clear and directed strategy, the learning process tends to be haphazard, unfocused, and difficult to achieve. Therefore, planning and implementing appropriate learning strategies are crucial factors in the success of the educational process, as they determine the extent to which teaching and learning activities can proceed optimally and produce meaningful learning outcomes for students.
