Abstract

Saat peristiwa kematian orang tua terjadi anak akan mengalami perasaan kehilangan yang pada akhirnya menimbulkan dukacita. Pengalaman kehilangan tersebut memberi dampak dalam kehidupan remaja, baik secara fisik, emosional maupun spiritual karena dukacita anak atas kematian orang tuanya. Dalam ilmu psikologi, peristiwa kehilangan yang dialami oleh individu atas kematian orang yang dicintai dijelaskan melalui konsep grief. Dalam hal ini grief, dibedakan menjadi dua macam, yaitu: normal grief dan pathological grief. Normal grief merupakan reaksi dukacita normal yang dialami oleh individu dan berakhir pada waktu yang tidak terlalu lama. Sedangkan pathological grief merupakan reaksi dukacita yang tidak normal karena menjerat orang sehingga tidak mampu melepaskan diri dari keterikatan emosinya dengan dia yang meninggalkannya. Keadaan seperti itu yang akhirnya membuat seseorang trauma sehingga dibutuhkan proses pemulihan bagi orang yang mengalami dukacita tidak normal (pathological grief). Tulisan ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan pendekatan trauma healing untuk mengatasi pathological grief pada anak usia remaja yang ditinggal mati orang tuanya. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif literature melalui studi pustaka dengan pendekatan analisis isi. Penelitian ini menghasilkan pemahaman akan definisi pathological grief dan trauma healing; gejala pathological grief yang dialami oleh anak remaja akibat ditinggal mati orangtuanya; dan mengetahui cara mengatasi pathological grief dengan menggunakan pendekatan trauma healing.

Abstract

Sampai saat ini di dalam gereja masih juga terdapat penatalayanan yang kurang efektif di mana hanya gembala yang mengambil alih semua aspek pelayanan, akibat kurangnya pemahaman pemimpin dalam mengkoordinasi penatalayanan dalam gereja. Kepemimpinan yang menekankan kekuasaan dengan memimpin secara otoriter, juga akan berdampak buruk pada sikap bawahan. Sayangnya hal ini belum dipahami dengan baik oleh gereja-gereja yang ada. Oleh karena itu penulis tergerak untuk meneliti penatalayanan berdasarkan Kisah Para Rasul 4-32-37. Metode dalan penelitian ini adalah kualitatif dengan pendekatan naratif guna memahami teks dan konteks. Hasil dari penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penatalayanan berdasarkan Kisah Para Rasul 4-32-37 menunjukkan adanya pembagian tugas antara pemimpin dan anggota jemaat lainnya. Pemimpin harus mampu melibatkan anggota jemaat dalam penatalayanan gereja yang baik dan efektif . Penatalayanan memiliki peranan yang penting dalam menentukan kualitas jemaat. Penatalayanan yang diatur dengan baik akan menolong pemimpin untuk focus dalam pelayanan firman dan kesaksian, dan juga mendorong anggota jemaat menolong persoalan yang dihadapi oleh anggota jemaat lainnya. Kisah Para Rasul 4-32-37 membutktikan bahwa penatalayanan yang baik membawa kesatuan hati dan jiwa serta menumbuhkan semangan kepedulian diantara jemaat, yang melahirkan jemaat yang sejahtera dan kuat.
