Revolusi hijau dalam pendidikan kristiani: Menghidupkan ecophilia dalam spiritualitas keseharian
Get PDFChristian religious education in Indonesia must integrate the concept of ecophilia (love for the environment) to overcome the increasingly severe environmental crisis. This research aims to develop strategies for implementing ecophilia in Christian education and evaluating its impact on student attitudes and behavior, as well as collaboration throughout the school community in environmentally friendly practices. Using a qualitative approach with thematic analysis, this research found that integrating ecophilia in the curriculum and school activities increased ecological awareness and the formation of students\u27 character who care about the en-vironment. Through active participation in environmental programs, the school community becomes an effective agent of change, reflecting faith manifested in concrete actions. The results of this research provide a concrete framework for integrating ecological responsibility into daily spi-rituality in Christian religious education, creating an ecologically and spiritually responsible generation. Through this approach, Christian schools can become a model for other communities in implementing ecophilia and strengthening daily spirituality through concrete actions that reflect love and concern for the environment.

Bromo as the body of God: Savanna Blazes and Yadnya Kasada ethnobotany in the perspective of Pentecostal eco-pneumatology
Get PDFThis study is a response to growing concern about the accumulation of ecological crises and other troubling bio-geological changes that have occurred recently on both a global and local scale. However, this conversation will be restricted to a local scale due to numerous constraints, particularly responding to the ecological tragedy of forest and land fires in the Bromo savanna in early September 2023. The thesis of this paper is that “Bromo as the body of God†can be an imaginative critique of a forest and land fire incident involving one of the Tengger tribe\u27s local wisdom of nature conservation known as the ethnobotany of the Yadnya Kasada ceremony and studied from the standpoint of Pentecostal Eco-pneumatology. To demonstrate this argument, I utilized a descriptive-analysis approach based chiefly on the works of a feminist eco-theologian named Sallie McFague, which was then interlaced with sharp insights from some Pentecostal/Charismatic (P/C) scholars. As a result, the metaphor of “Bromo as the Body of God†proposes a new ecological paradigm that simultaneously unites human tears, earth tears, and God\u27s tears. The sacred character of the earth as a manifestation of His body must compel efforts to manage, restore, and maintain the Bromo Tengger Semeru National Park (Taman Nasional Bromo Tengger Semeru, TNBTS) region as a tangible representation of the need to care for the sustainability of the current environment
The Christian religious education and the Javanese tradition of theory and teaching method: Experiences from the Bible and Ki Hajar Dewantara
Get PDFThis study examines the intersection between Christian religious education and Javanese educational traditions, focusing on the theories and teaching methods found in the Bible and the philosophy of Ki Hajar Dewantara. The research highlights how biblical figures such as Abraham, Moses, David, Solomon, Nehemiah, Jesus, and Paul embodied educational principles that align with Dewantara’s education philosophy. Both traditions emphasize holistic education, character formation, mentorship, and community-based learning. By drawing from both traditions, Christian religious education in Indonesia can integrate biblical teachings with local wisdom to create a more effective and contextually relevant learning system. This synthesis can strengthen character formation, intellectual growth, and spiritual development while fostering a deeper appreciation of cultural heritage. The study ultimately advocates for a dynamic, inclusive Christian education that respects biblical principles and indigenous educational philosophies
Harmoni spiritualitas dalam pastoral konseling: Sebuah kajian berbasis pendidikan kristiani
Get PDFThis article explores the integration of spirituality in pastoral counseling through a holistic Christian education approach. The research reveals that spirituality is not merely an additional element, but a fundamental dimension that animates the entire counseling process. A systematic literature review found significant gaps in pastoral counseling practices in Indonesia, where the spiritual dimension is often separated from the psychological approach. The article analyzes the theological foundation of spirituality as the basis for pastoral counseling, explores a holistic approach in integrating spiritual dimensions with psychological aspects, and formulates an implementation model of spiritual harmony in pastoral counselor education programs. Findings indicate that harmonizing spirituality in pastoral counseling requires a systematic approach through integrated curriculum, spiritual formation, supervision models based on theological reflection, and contextualization relevant to Indonesian realities. This model\u27s implementation impacts individual recovery and contributes to transforming faith communities and developing counseling approaches responsive to contemporary challenges.

Artikel ini mengeksplorasi integrasi spiritualitas dalam konseling pastoral melalui pendekatan pendidikan Kristiani yang holistik. Penelitian mengungkapkan bahwa spiritualitas bukan sekadar elemen tambahan, melainkan dimensi fundamental yang menjiwai seluruh proses konseling. Melalui kajian literatur sistematis, ditemukan adanya kesenjangan signifikan dalam praktik konseling pastoral di Indonesia, di mana dimensi spiritualitas seringkali dipisahkan dari pendekatan psikologis.

Temuan menunjukkan bahwa harmonisasi spiritualitas dalam konseling pastoral membutuhkan pendekatan sistematis melalui kurikulum terintegrasi, pembentukan spiritual, model supervisi berbasis refleksi teologis, dan kontekstualisasi yang relevan dengan realitas Indonesia. Implementasi model ini tidak hanya berdampak pada pemulihan individu, tetapi juga berkontribusi pada transformasi komunitas iman dan pengembangan pendekatan konseling yang responsif terhadap tantangan kontemporer

Inclusive values: Foundations of religious education for multicultural harmonious life
Get PDFHarmonious living in a diverse society presents complex challenges due to the potential for significant conflict. Radicalism, intolerance, and social conflict often occur, especially concerning religious pluralism. Educational institutions, which are expected to build the nation\u27s character, are also prone to religion\u27s education labeling. Hence, Christian religious education had two choices: strengthen dogmatic teaching or embrace inclusive values. This research focuses on the importance of inclusive values as the foundation for Christian Religious Education. Through descriptive analysis of various literature, this study discusses the theological basis for inclusive values in the context of the Church and its implications for Christian religious education. The research results show that the value of inclusion is based on the reflection of the incarnation and the example of encountering dialogue, which forms the foundation for inclusive Christian Religious Education
Teologi kerja: Kerja sebagai realitas panggilan yang berpusat pada Allah
Get PDFVarious work morality issues relate to job satisfaction and comfort. Work is also, in reality, associated with social status. As a result, work is only seen as a certain necessity. On the other hand, work is God\u27s mandate to humans who are given the power to maintain the integrity of His creation. This research will aim to outline: first, the definition of work theology in its context; second, the attitude and calling to work in carrying out God\u27s mandate; and third, the reality of work that is centered on God. In response to this mandate and calling, work theology shows that work attitudes and callings should be centered on God. The research method uses a qualitative approach that describes literature from several theories related to work theology. The result of the discussion in this article is that work theology builds a human perspective to view work in the light of God\u27s insight, purpose, and involvement. This research concludes that work is a calling in the form of acceptance, care, and understanding as God\u27s gift to humans. A calling to work is a mandate to continue God\u27s work. AbstrakBerbagai persoalan moralitas kerja berkaitan dengan kepuasan dan kenyamanan kerja. Kerja juga dalam realitasnya dikaitkan dengan status sosial.
