Model Disabilitas dan Implementasinya Terhadap Praktik Pelayanan Pastoral di Greja Kristen Jawi Wetan (GKJW)
Full text linkAbstract. Implementing the disability model offers a new paradigm for pastoral ministry to individuals with disabilities within congregations. This study employs a qualitative approach by accurately detailing facts related to the phenomenon under investigation. The study’s results indicate that the disability model is a theoretical framework for understanding and addressing disability in pastoral ministry. The practices of the GKJW (Greja Kristen Jawi Wetan) implicitly incorporate the principles of a new friendship approach—known in Javanese as paseduluran (brotherhood)—and kinship in developing pastoral services for individuals with disabilities. Disability pastoral care is further conceptualized as both a physical and social space, facilitating communion and fostering the creation of meaning within pastoral relationships. This approach embodies forming a new community that includes the pastor, individuals with disabilities, and their families. It simultaneously becomes a space for holistic growth and the flourishing of the congregation as an integrated community.Abstrak. Implementasi model disabilitas dapat memberikan paradigma baru dalam pelayanan pastoral disabilitas di jemaat. Untuk menemukan problematika yang dimaksud, penelitian ini menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan menyusun deskripsi secara akurat mengenai fakta terkait fenomena yang diselidiki. Hasil yang ditemukan dari penelitian ini antara lain: bahwa model disabilitas dapat menjadi kerangka teoritis dalam memahami dan melayani disabilitas. Secara tidak langsung GKJW mempraktikan pendekatan new friendship (Jawa: paseduluran = persaudaraan) dan kekeluargaan dalam mengembangkan pelayanan pastoral disabilitas. Pelayanan pastoral disabilitas juga dipahami sebagai ruang fisik dan ruang sosial, sebagai wahana persekutuan memproduksi makna hidup bagi relasi pastoral yang ada. Pastoral disabilitas merupakan perwujudan dari komunitas baru antara “pastor” dan disabilitas (dan keluarga disabilitas) yang dilayani dan sekaligus ruang bagi tumbuhnya komunitas sebagai pribadi yang utuh
Reconsider the Meaning of Scapegoat Ritual in Leviticus 16:20-22
Full text linkThe scapegoating ritual in Leviticus 16 is central to ancient Jewish religion as part of the Yom Kippur celebration. The sacrifice of a scapegoat thrown into the desert is a unique ritual because it only appears in Leviticus 16 of the entire biblical text, and the only story that uses an animal to take away all the sins of the Israelites. The issue that will be discussed in this study is to find the origins and meaning of this ritual. From the historical criticism interpretation approach to the text of Leviticus 16:20-22, it can be concluded that the meaning of this ritual can be used as a warning (threat) for the Israelites, in which expulsion/exile is a real possibility if they live in sin, and also as a means (ceremony) to reconcile God and man
Ecclesiology Model in Asian Public Theology
Full text linkThis article attempted to answer the problem formulation, how does the model of ecclesiology based on Asian public theology? Based on this problem formulation, this article aimed to discuss Felix Wilfred's views on Asian public theology, ecclesiological model that is relevant to the perspective of Asian public theology, and the practical implications of the idea on Asian public theology for Church pastoral work. Using a literature study approach, the author attempted to read and explore several of Wilfred's important works on Asian public theology. The result showed that public theology moves outward and opens itself up (inclusive) to meet, embrace and collaborate with others outside the Christian community. Wilfred's Asian public theology perspective always comes from concrete situations, so it is often referred to as subaltern theology
Hospitalitas Kepemimpinan Kristen: Analisis Kepemimpinan Yesus dalam Injil Lukas
Full text linkAbstract. This paper aimed to analyze the leadership of Jesus found in several narratives in the Gospel of Luke. The purpose was to find the values of hospitality in His leadership and ministry. The method used in this study is the literature study method. The result of the study showed that in His ministry, Jesus treated the poor and marginalized with respect. His ministry also emphasized equality between humans. Leaders with these hospitality values will in turn become initiators for the formation of communities that care about the poor and marginalized.Abstrak. Tulisan ini bermaksud untuk menganalisis kepemimpinan Yesus yang terdapat dalam beberapa narasi di Injil Lukas. Tujuannya adalah untuk menemukan nilai-nilai hospitalitas dalam kepemimpinan dan pelayanan-Nya. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini adalah metode studi pustaka. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dalam pelayanan-Nya, Yesus memperlakukan orang-orang miskin dan orang-orang yang termarginalkan dengan hormat. Pelayanan-Nya juga menekankan kesetaraan antar-manusia. Pemimpin dengan nilai hospitalitas tersebut pada gilirannya akan menjadi penggagas bagi terbentuknya komunitas yang perduli dengan orang-orang miskin dan orang-orang yang termaginalkan
Kerukunan Seluruh Ciptaan: Menggagas Moderasi Beragama yang Bersifat Kosmosentris
Full text linkAbstract. Does religious moderation only relate to human life so that harmony can be created? Through this reflection, we offer the fifth indicator of Religious Moderation in Indonesia. This indicator is Compassion for All Creation as a broader relationship than the four current indicators of Religious Moderation. Compassion for all creation is inspired by the concept of Deep Incarnation and the exposition of Romans 8:18-30. This construction leads to harmony between the universe and living creatures that are embodied in all religious communities in Indonesia.Abstrak. Apakah moderasi beragama hanya mengatur kehidupan antarmanusia sehingga dapat tercipta keharmonisan? Melalui refleksi tersebut kami menawarkan indikator kelima Moderasi Beragama di Indonesia. Indikator tersebut adalah Welas Asih kepada Seluruh Ciptaan sebagai suatu relasi yang lebih luas dari empat indikator Moderasi Beragama saat ini. Welas asih kepada seluruh ciptaan dijiwai dari konsep Inkarnasi Dalam (Deep Incarnation) dan eksposisi Surat Roma 8:18-30. Konstruksi tersebut membawa pada keharmonisan alam semesta dan mahkluk hidup yang menubuh pada seluruh umat beragama di Indonesia
Roh Kudus sebagai Pleroma Allah
Full text linkAbstract. In Christian theological discourse, the term pleroma of God is commonly applied to Jesus Christ, the second Person of the Trinity. Despite the explicit support of biblical texts, the consensus indicates a lack of attention to the Holy Spirit, the Third, especially in conversations about the characteristics of the pleroma of God. An exegetical approach to the text of Acts 2:2 opens up the imaginative possibility that the Holy Spirit also assumes a pleromative role, precisely post-ascension of Christ. As a finding, the elaboration of the pleroma of the Holy Spirit makes room for the prophetic role, that the fulfillment by the Holy Spirit empowers a universal prophetic voice. Secondly, the pleroma of the Holy Spirit will always confirm the Trinitarian faith, a belief that underlies every theological passion in the Christian faith.Abstrak. Dalam diskursus teologi Kristen, predikat pleroma Allah lazimnya dikenakan pada Yesus Kristus, Pribadi kedua dalam Trinitas. Kelaziman tersebut memang dapat diafirmasi dengan teks-teks biblis. Namun di sisi lain, konsensus tersebut mengindikasikan kurangnya perhatian pada Roh Kudus, Sang Pribadi ketiga dalam iman Trinitarian. Salah satunya mengemuka dalam percakapan mengenai karakteristik pleroma Allah. Pendekatan eksegetis terhadap teks Kisah Para Rasul 2:2 membuka kemungkinan imajinatif bahwa Roh Kudus juga mengemban peran pleromatif, tepatnya pascaasensi Kristus. Sebagai temuan, elaborasi pleroma Roh Kudus memberi ruang untuk peran profetis, bahwa pemenuhan oleh Roh Kudus memberi kuasa untuk suara profetik yang universal. Kedua, pleroma Roh Kudus akan selalu mengonfirmasi iman Trinitarian, sebuah keyakinan yang mendasari setiap gairah berteologi dalam iman Kristen
Menelusuri Konsep Pemikiran John Calvin Tentang Manusia dan Relevansinya Terhadap Transformasi Sosial
Full text linkAbstract. This article is a study of John Calvin's concept of thought about humans. By drawing on and analyzing John Calvin's thoughts, the author believes that the background of John Calvin's life needs to be explained comprehensively in order to understand his theology about humans. The background of the life in question includes: the background of Calvin's life, the influence of philosophical schools on the formation of Calvin's theology and the controversy over his life which makes many people wonder. By using literature study approach, the author examines it analytically and methodically and obtains three points that can be of actual relevance to social transformation efforts in Indonesia. First, the social human that Calvin meant was a human who always prioritizes an attitude of hospitality. Second, social humans are humans who abandon the tendency to prioritize individualistic attitudes. Third, social people are people who continue to fight for Indonesia as a "city of God," an area where people will feel peace because they accept justice and the virtues of life.Abstrak. Artikel ini adalah sebuah studi terhadap konsep pemikiran John Calvin tentang manusia. Dengan menimba dan menganalisis pemikiran John Calvin, penulis berpendapat bahwa latar belakang kehidupan John Calvin perlu dijelaskan secara komprehensif agar bisa memahami teologinya tentang manusia. Latar belakang kehidupan yang dimaksud, antara lain: latar belakang kehidupan Calvin, pengaruh aliran filsafat terhadap pembentukan teologi Calvin dan kontroversi hidupnya yang membuat orang banyak bertanya-tanya. Dengan menggunakan kajian kepustakaan, penulis mengkajinya secara analisis dan metodik, dan mendapatkan tiga poin yang bisa direlevansikan secara aktual pada upaya transformasi sosial di Indonesia. Pertama, manusia sosial yang dimaksudkan Calvin adalah manusia yang selalu mengedepankan sikap hospitalitas. Kedua, manusia sosial adalah manusia yang meninggalkan kecenderungan untuk mengedepankan sikap individualistik. Ketiga, manusia sosial adalah manusia yang terus memperjuangkan Indonesia sebagai “kota Allah,” daerah di mana masyarakat akan merasakan damai sejahtera karena menerima keadilan dan kebajikan hidup
Liberating Political Commitment Based on Democracy in General Election
Full text linkThe implementation of the General Election, including its implications for governance, has so far been full of various deviations from the principles of democracy. Therefore, with a theological perspective, democracy needs to be rebuilt to free society from democratic shifts in the Election and governance that have an impact on discomfort in living together. This article aims to construct a liberating political commitment of Christian society based on a dialogue between the ideas of democracy according to Karsadi and Franz Magnis-Suseno with the idea of the prophetic role of the church according to John Chr. Ruhulessin. The result of this study shows that a liberating political commitment can be built through the internalization of church teachings, so that the church is responsible for providing Christian political ethics education
Gereja di Ruang Publik Indonesia Berdasarkan Pemikiran A.A. Yewangoe
Full text linkAbstract. A.A. Yewangoe through his thoughts can be said to be a theo-nationalist figure because of his ability to integrate Christian teachings with the socio-cultural context of Indonesia in an effort to build a just and dignified democratic society. In this regard, this study focuses on Yewangoe's intellectual, theological, and ecclesiological analysis in responding to social, political, and democratic issues in Indonesia. Emphasis is placed on how Yewangoe integrates Christian teachings with Indonesian socio-cultural values to create a democratic society. Yewangoe emphasizes that the church has an active role in creating a just social order, by combining Christian values and local wisdom of Indonesian society. This idea encourages the church and Christians to be more reflective about their responsibilities in the public sphere, while at the same time criticizing the view that separates the church from social life. Thus, Yewangoe’s thoughts offer a significant perspective on the role of the church in the formation of a more just and dignified Indonesian society.Abstrak. A.A. Yewangoe melalui pemikirannya dapat dikatakan sebagai tokoh teo-nasionalisme karena kemampuannya mengintegrasikan ajaran Kristen dengan konteks sosio-kultural Indonesia dalam upaya membangun masyarakat demokratis yang adil dan bermartabat. Sehubungan dengan ini, penelitian ini berfokus pada analisis intelektual, teologis, dan eklesiologis Yewangoe dalam merespons isu-isu sosial, politik, dan demokrasi di Indonesia. Penekanan diberikan pada bagaimana Yewangoe mengintegrasikan ajaran Kristen dengan nilai-nilai sosio-kultural Indonesia untuk menciptakan masyarakat demokratis. Yewangoe menegaskan bahwa gereja memiliki peran aktif dalam menciptakan tatanan sosial yang berkeadilan, dengan memadukan nilai-nilai Kristiani dan kearifan lokal masyarakat Indonesia. Gagasan ini mendorong gereja dan umat Kristen untuk lebih reflektif terhadap tanggung jawab mereka di ruang publik, sekaligus mengritisi pandangan yang memisahkan gereja dari kehidupan sosial. Dengan demikian, pemikiran Yewangoe menawarkan perspektif yang signifikan bagi peran gereja dalam pembentukan masyarakat Indonesia yang lebih adil dan bermartabat
Christian Education Curriculum: Discipleship-Based Recovery as a Model for Character Development of Addicts in Drug Rehabilitation Centers
Full text linkThis study investigates the effectiveness of a Christian discipleship-based curriculum for character development in drug rehabilitation, addressing the limitations of conventional approaches that often neglect spiritual dimensions. Using document analysis of rehabilitation curricula and program materials, the research examines how faith-based principles facilitate holistic recovery. The analysis reveals four key findings: First, theological foundations of repentance and redemption provide a unique framework for identity transformation. Second, the curriculum effectively combines biblical teaching with experiential learning methods. Third, the integration of psychological principles with spiritual disciplines creates a synergistic approach to recovery. Fourth, while showing promising results in long-term sobriety and moral development, implementation faces challenges like cultural adaptation and resource constraints. The study demonstrates that discipleship-oriented programs offer distinct advantages by addressing both behavioral and existential aspects of addiction. The curriculum's strength lies in its ability to foster purpose-driven transformation through structured spiritual formation
