ANALISIS KESEPIAN SEBAGAI KRISIS RELASIONAL DALAM GEREJA DAN IMPLIKASI PASTORAL
type: item
description: This article examines loneliness as a multidimensional phenomenon through an integrative theological– psychological analysis within the context of contemporary Christian pastoral care. The purpose of this study is to identify the core dynamics of loneliness, evaluate its theological implications based on the relational nature of the imago Dei, and formulate an integrative pastoral model that responds effectively to the relational, cognitive, and communal needs of church members. The theoretical framework combines recent psychological findings on cognitive distortions and maladaptive relational patterns with Christian theological perspectives on human relationality, ecclesiology, and the role of the Holy Spirit in restoring human relationships. This study employs a qualitative-descriptive method through a systematic literature review of research published between 2014 and 2025, complemented by analysis of theological sources and biblical texts. The findings reveal that loneliness is sustained by cognitive biases, relational fragmentation, and structural limitations within church communities, while theology provides an ontological basis for restoring disrupted relationships. This study concludes that an integrative pastoral model that incorporates cognitive reframing, relational restoration, and spiritual formation is necessary to address loneliness comprehensively within the life of the church.

Teologi Perjanjian dalam Perspektif Reformasi: Antara Tradisi dan Pembaruan
type: item
description: Covenant Theology is one of the important pillars in Reformation theological thought that seeks to understand the relationship between God and His people through a consistent covenant framework throughout the biblical narrative. This paper examines the development of the concept of Covenant Theology in the Reformation tradition, especially as developed by figures such as John Calvin and post-Reformation theologians, and how this concept has been renewed in dialogue with contemporary theological and social contexts. This study uses a historical-theological and hermeneutic approach to trace the continuity and dynamics of change in the understanding of the covenant, both in the Old and New Testaments. It also emphasizes the contribution of Covenant Theology to the formation of Christian soteriology, ecclesiology, and ethics doctrines within the Reformation framework. The results of the study show that although the traditional roots of Covenant Theology are very strong, there is significant room for theological renewal that remains faithful to Reformation principles such as sola scriptura and sola gratia, without losing the richness of its historical heritage. Thus, Covenant Theology in the Reformation perspective continues to be relevant and dynamic as a bridge between the heritage of faith and the challenges of the modern era.

Pendekatan Solution Focused Brief Counseling Dalam Konseling Pastoral Mengatasi Kecemasan
type: item
description: Anxiety is a multidimensional psychological phenomenon, encompassing emotional, cognitive, physical, and spiritual aspects. In psychology, anxiety is understood as an adaptive response to life's pressures, but it can develop into a disorder if it hinders an individual's functioning. Meanwhile, Christian theology views anxiety not only as a psychological issue, but also as something related to human relationships with God, the meaning of life, and dependence on faith. Therefore, Christian pastoral counselling is seen as a relevant holistic approach to dealing with anxiety. This study aims to examine the application of Christian pastoral counselling with a Solution-Focused Brief Counselling (SFBC) approach in helping individuals overcome anxiety. The method used is library research by reviewing books and scientific articles that discuss anxiety, pastoral counselling, and SFBC. The analysis was conducted systematically to obtain a comprehensive theoretical understanding. The results of the study indicate that the integration of SFBC in pastoral counselling is effective in helping counselees to concretise their anxiety problems, recognise their spiritual strengths and resources, and build hope oriented towards recovery. The SFBC approach, which focuses on solutions and the future, is in line with Christian theological values that emphasise hope, restoration, and God's presence. It is concluded that SFBC-based pastoral counselling is an applicable and theological approach to treating anxiety holistically.

MEMBINGKAI KEMBALI MEMORI SEBAGAI UPAYA MEMBANGUN PEMULIHAN HOLISTIK
type: item
description: This article aims to discuss how humans can avoid trauma from the bad experiences they encounter in life, which can lead to a decline in mental health and disrupt the human mind. In human life, one cannot escape various kinds of incidents, such as the loss of a loved one in a tragic way, being robbed, accidents, bullying, and many more. By reframing memories or events that have occurred, it can be the most effective way to build holistic recovery. Because the recovery process from trauma requires methods that are considered appropriate and suitable, such as psychological approaches, which can help reduce trauma and build resilience. Therefore, this research aims to analyze how recalling memories can help people make peace with those memories, through photos, videos, and perhaps places that were once visited together.

Misi Kristiani di Tengah Pluralitas: Dialog Iman sebagai Wujud Kesaksian Injil
type: item
description: This article examines the mission of the church within the context of religious and cultural pluralism in Indonesia by emphasizing interfaith dialogue as a relevant and contextual form of Christian witness. In a plural society vulnerable to identity-based conflicts and intolerance, the church is called to engage in mission not through exclusive or confrontational approaches, but through dialogical practices that respect human dignity and religious diversity. Grounded in the paradigm of Missio Dei, this study affirms that mission is the church’s participation in God’s ongoing work of love, justice, and reconciliation in the world. Through theological and biblical reflection, interfaith dialogue is understood not as syncretism or theological compromise, but as a faithful and incarnational expression of gospel witness. The article demonstrates that interfaith dialogue has strong biblical foundations and offers significant implications for contemporary churches, particularly in fostering interreligious relationships, social engagement, and transformative presence within Indonesia’s plural society.

ADIKSI GAME ONLINE SEBAGAI TANTANGAN PERKEMBANGAN REMAJA: ANALISIS EMPIRIS DAN RESPON PASTORAL KRISTEN
type: item
description: Online game addiction has become a significant developmental challenge for adolescents, particularly in Indonesia with its rapidly growing population of digital game users. This study aims to analyze the phenomenon of online game addiction among adolescents by integrating recent empirical findings with a Christian pastoral-theological perspective. Using a literature review approach, this research examines the causes, symptoms, and psychosocial effects of gaming addiction and interprets their implications for character formation and spiritual maturity. Empirical studies indicate that addiction arises from a combination of internal factors—including the need for recognition, emotional escape, and low self-control—and external factors such as ineffective parenting, peer pressure, and reward-based game design. Its impact extends beyond emotional, social, and academic impairment, affecting adolescents’ spirituality through diminished spiritual disciplines and weakened identity formation. Theologically, addiction is understood as a distortion of freedom and relational wholeness, hindering the adolescent’s growth toward maturity in Christ. This study emphasizes the necessity of a holistic pastoral response through relational guidance, family involvement, and the cultivation of spiritual disciplines as essential strategies for recovery and the strengthening of adolescents’ spiritual identity in the digital age.

AJARAN EKAM SAT VIPRA BAHUDHA VADANTI SEBAGAI PARADIGMA BERINTERAKSI DALAM KEHIDUPAN MASYARAKAT MAJEMUK
type: item
description: The teaching of Ekam Sat Vipra Bahudha Vadanti “Truth is one, though the wise call it by many names”offers a meaningful framework for interreligious engagement in diverse societies. Rather than treating other religions as theological systems to be judged or criticized, this study shows that they are understood as authentic and meaningful expressions of spirituality. Such an understanding resonates with John Hick’s view of a transcendent reality that is encountered and interpreted through different religious and cultural traditions. The pluralistic outlook that emerges from this reflection is not merely theoretical but grows out of lived philosophical reflection and everyday social experience. In this way, the findings contribute to and enrich Paul Knitter’s typology of interreligious relations. The religious life of the Hindu community at Pura Jagadhita Taas illustrates a distinctive and dynamic form of religious practice, marked by a high degree of fluidity. Here, religious communication is shaped less by rigid doctrinal claims and more by shared ethical values such as harmony, moral virtue, and respect for human dignity. Seen in this light, Ekam Sat functions not as an abstract theological formula, but as a lived spiritual orientation one that encourages inclusive social attitudes and strengthens cohesion within pluralistic communities.

description: Generation Z is a generation that grew up in the fast-paced and competitive digital era, making them vulnerable to psychological pressure that leads to psychosomatic disorders. Psychosomatic symptoms experienced by generation Z are caused by inner conflict, social pressure and identity crisis. Continuous pastoral accompaniment is needed to provide spiritual and emotional attention, as well as help generation Z overcome this challenge. This article criticizes the lack of a pastoral approach that is contextual to the realities experienced by Generation Z and seeks continuous and holistic accompaniment. By integrating theology and psychological understanding, this accompaniment is carried out as a recovery strategy in dealing with psychosomatic problems in generation Z as a whole.

RESTORASI IMAGO DEI SEBAGAI LANDASAN KONSELING KRISTEN DALAM PEMULIHAN ADIKSI NAPZA
type: item
description: Substance addiction is a multidimensional issue that not only damages physical and psychological well-being but also disrupts a person's identity, relationships, and spiritual life. From a Christian theological perspective, such damage reflects a distortion of the Imago Dei, the human vocation to mirror God’s character and will. This study aims to examine the restoration of the Imago Dei as a theological foundation for formulating a Christian counseling approach that can support holistic recovery from substance addiction. This research employs a qualitative approach through a literature study by reviewing theological works, Christian counseling literature, and studies related to addiction, which were then analyzed to identify principles relevant to identity and behavioral restoration. The findings indicate that recovery from addiction requires spiritual renewal and identity reconstruction through the work of Christ and intentional pastoral care. These insights suggest that Christian counseling grounded in the restoration of the Imago Dei may be oriented through spiritual assessment, spiritual reframing, emotional healing, behavioral transformation, relapse prevention, and supportive faith communities. This study concludes that the restoration of the Imago Dei provides a robust theological and practical framework for developing Christian counseling approaches that promote holistic human recovery, particularly in the areas of identity and spirituality.

PENDEKATAN TEOLOGI PASTORAL DALAM MENOLONG JEMAAT MENGHADAPI DILEMA EUTANASIA
type: item
description: The issue of euthanasia presents a serious ethical, theological, and pastoral challenge within contemporary Christian communities. Congregants facing terminal illness, chronic suffering, and loss of dignity often experience deep psychological distress, spiritual confusion, and existential despair. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method through literature review, theological-biblical reflection, and integration of pastoral counseling approaches. The research aims to construct a pastoral theological framework that helps congregants process suffering without losing their sense of meaning, dignity, and faith. The findings demonstrate that an integrative pastoral approach rooted in the theology of grace, imago Dei, and redemptive suffering can provide effective emotional, spiritual, and relational support. The study concludes that the church is called to become a community of accompaniment that upholds life while offering compassionate care amid moral and existential dilemmas.

Intervensi Konseling Untuk Mengatasi Toxic Parenting
type: item
description: Toxic parenting refers to destructive parenting patterns that negatively affect a child’s development. This harmful parenting style is characterized by behaviors such as excessive control, verbal abuse, emotional neglect, and unrealistic expectations toward children. These conditions can lead to various mental health problems in children, including low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, as well as aggressive or withdrawn behavior. Moreover, toxic parenting often persists across generations if left unaddressed. This article discusses a counseling case study of a family demonstrating toxic parenting practices, along with intervention efforts aimed at improving the parenting dynamics. The method employed is a descriptive qualitative single-case study, with data collected through observation and counseling interviews. The findings indicate that toxic parenting within the family led to emotional and behavioral problems in the child; however, through intensive counseling intervention, improvements were observed in parental communication patterns and behavior. The discussion relates the case findings to relevant literature, affirming that parental awareness and professional assistance can break the cycle of toxic parenting. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of positive parenting education, emotional regulation, and effective communication for parents as preventive measures against toxic parenting, as well as the need for counseling support for families experiencing harmful parenting patterns.

Keugaharian Sebagai Spiritualitas Pastoral Dalam Upaya Gereja Menentang Konsumerisme
type: item
description: This study explores frugality as a form of pastoral spirituality that serves as a strategic response of the church in resisting the growing culture of consumerism in contemporary society. Consumerism not only shapes the lifestyle of church members but also influences faith orientation, social relationships, and pastoral practice within the church. This research highlights that frugality expressed through simplicity, self-control, and a Christ-centered orientation can function as a transformative spiritual foundation that liberates believers from consumptive patterns of life. The findings indicate that implementing frugality pastorally, through teaching, liturgy, and diaconal practice, fosters critical awareness, ethical transformation, and ecological responsibility among congregations. Thus, frugality is not merely a moral principle but a liberative spirituality that equips the church to fulfill its prophetic role in confronting the challenges of consumerism.

description: Pregnancy outside marriage often produces deep psychological, moral, and spiritual crises accompanied by shame, fear, rejection, and identity confusion. Churches and Christian counselors frequently respond moralistically, failing to address the trauma and cognitive distortions experienced by young women in this situation. This study uses a descriptive qualitative approach through literature review, biblical-theological analysis (Psalm 34:18; John 8:1–11), and a synthesis of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), bibliotherapy, and therapeutic journaling within a pastoral counseling framework. The research proposes the Christian Supportive Counseling Model for Crisis Pregnancy (CSCM-CP), consisting of holistic assessment, emotional stabilization, cognitive restructuring, narrative reconstruction through bibliotherapy, journaling for self-integration, and spiritual healing. The study affirms that counselors must function as empathetic companions, not judges, by integrating psychological techniques with Christian values of grace, restoration, and accompaniment

PEMULIHAN KELUARGA DISFUNGSIONAL MELALUI INTERVENSI PASTORAL BERBASIS TEKNIK KONSELING RELASIONAL
type: item
description: The increasing number of dysfunctional Christian families, marked by emotional detachment, unresolved conflicts, communication breakdown, and spiritual disorientation, has led to a significant rise in pastoral cases related to family crises within local churches. Existing pastoral approaches often focus on moral correction or doctrinal teaching but lack a relational framework capable of rebuilding emotional bonds and repairing attachment wounds. This study aims to formulate a pastoral intervention model grounded in relational counseling techniques to restore trust, communication, and spiritual integrity in dysfunctional families. Using a descriptive qualitative method through theological literature review, pastoral counseling theory, family psychology, and biblical analysis of relational restoration texts such as Genesis 33, Hosea 11, Matthew 18, and Ephesians 4:25–32, this article develops the Relational Pastoral Counseling Intervention Model (RPCIM). The model integrates emotional regulation, empathic communication, relational reframing, forgiveness work, and spiritual covenant renewal. The findings show that relational counseling enables families to rebuild secure emotional attachment, clarify expectations, restore mutual dignity, and rediscover their identity as a covenantal community shaped by the love of Christ.

This study uses a qualitative approach with content analysis of Christian mission content on TikTok with several digital mission actors. The aim is to understand how messages of faith are constructed, conveyed and received in the context of a multireligious society in the digital space. The results show that the practice of mission on TikTok presents two sides: great potential in reaching the digital generation and affirming faith, but also ethical risks when missions are carried out without considering the sensitivity of other religions. From an ethical review, this study confirms the importance of carrying out the mission in a relevant way and contextual awareness. Reflective, communicative, and exclusive missions not only demonstrate faithfulness to Christ, but also present a peaceful testimony in the midst of a diversity of religious identities. By analyzing the existing literature, this study tries to answer some key questions that pose ethical dilemmas: how to stay true to the call to mission without hurting or offending other religious identities? God's mission must be accomplished.

PENDEKATAN KONSELING PASTORAL BERBASIS PSYCHODELSI DALAM DINAMIKA KELOMPOK TUMBUH BERSAMA: UPAYA MEMBANGUN KOMUNITAS YANG MENUMBUHKAN IMAN DI STTAM NIAS BARAT
type: item
description: This study explores the application of pastoral counseling within the dynamics of Growing Together Groups (Kelompok Tumbuh Bersama – KTB) as an effort to build a faith-nurturing community at the Anugerah Misi Theological Seminary (STTAM) West Nias. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, this research analyzes how pastoral counseling—particularly through the integration of the Psychodelsi model (Psycho, Deliverance, Spiritual)—can contribute to students’ spiritual growth and maturity. The study reveals that many theology students still carry unresolved emotional wounds, particularly anger toward their parents, which hinder their spiritual development. By employing pastoral counseling integrated with the Psychodelsi framework, students are guided through personal reflection (life story), psychological typology assessment, and spiritual deliverance to identify the roots of inner bitterness and to experience genuine forgiveness. The results indicate that the pastoral counseling process not only reduces emotional distress and anger but also leads to deeper spiritual renewal, reconciliation, and transformation of character. Furthermore, the integration of pastoral counseling principles within KTB strengthens community bonds, enhances accountability among members, and fosters an environment where faith can flourish through shared experiences of healing and discipleship. In conclusion, the study highlights that the Psychodelsi-based pastoral counseling approach provides a holistic and contextual framework for spiritual formation in theological education, making it an effective model for developing faith communities that embody Christlike maturity, compassion, and wholeness.

type: item
description: Dalam kehidupan modern, kecenderungan orangtua menjadi workaholic menjadi tantangan serius bagi keharmonisan keluarga. Fokus berlebihan pada pekerjaan sering kali menyebabkan peran emosional dan spiritual dalam keluarga terabaikan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengkaji peran konseling pastoral dalam membantu orangtua workaholic menyadari kembali prioritas hidup mereka. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dengan metode wawancara naratif, data diperoleh dari beberapa informan yang mengalami pola hidup tersebut. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konseling pastoral berperan sebagai ruang refleksi spiritual dan pemulihan emosional. Melalui pendampingan yang intensional, konselor pastoral membantu orangtua memahami kembali makna keluarga sebagai panggilan ilahi dan membimbing mereka menyusun ulang prioritas berdasarkan nilai-nilai iman Kristen. Proses ini memberikan kesadaran baru akan pentingnya kehadiran dan relasi yang utuh dalam keluarga. Dengan demikian, konseling pastoral terbukti menjadi sarana transformatif yang relevan dalam menjawab kebutuhan spiritual dan relasional keluarga masa kini yang terdampak oleh workaholic.

type: item
description: The phenomenon of fast fashion has become a global challenge with widespread impacts on the environment and social ethics, including within church communities. This study aims to analyze the clothing consumption behavior of women in the KWKI group at KGPM Sidang Elim Tuminting, and to evaluate how the church can respond to the fast fashion trend from a Christian theological perspective.

KAJIAN TEOLOGI PRAKTIS MENGENAI KEHADIRAN DALAM IBADAH PEMUDA DI JEMAAT GMIM SION PERAK SORONG
type: item
description: Church youth are often referred to as the backbone of the Church. Therefore youth also have an important role in the life of the Church. Many youths make worship only as a routine activity with certain intentions in worship. In addition, differences in family economic background also have an influence on the presence of young people in worship. This thesis contains the results of research on GMIM Sion Perak Sorong youth congregation. From the research results, the authors found that there were problems in youth organizations regarding their minimal attendance at worship. Therefore, the Church, in this case pastors and special ministers as well as parents, must play a role in motivating and guiding young people to be more active and earnest in participating in worship.

Larangan Perempuan Berbicara dalam Jemaat: Kajian Hermeneutik terhadap 1 Korintus 14:34–35 dalam Konteks Sosial-Teologis
type: item
description: This study aims to interpret 1 Corinthians 14:34–35 through a historical-critical hermeneutical approach in order to understand the meaning of the prohibition against women speaking in the congregation. By examining the social, cultural, and argumentative context of Paul’s writing, this study evaluates whether the prohibition is theological-normative or pastoral-contextual. The analysis shows that the text emerged from a specific situation in the Corinthian church, which was facing liturgical disorder. Therefore, the prohibition should not be understood as a universal command, but rather as a pastoral response to a particular situation. This study proceeds with a constructive theological approach to formulate practical implications for today's church, especially in encouraging equal participation of women in ministry. The theology developed from this text should not restrict women’s roles but instead affirm their active and equal involvement in the life of the congregation.

Menakar Nasionalisme dalam Kehidupan Gereja KGPM Melalui Bingkai tema “Yesus Kristus dalam Kebangsaan – Kebangsaan dalam Yesus Kristus” Sebuah Penelusuran Eklesiologi Kebangsaan
type: item
description: Gereja merupakan milik Allah yang hadir dalam dunia untuk menghadirkan damai sejahtera bagi orang-orang. Tidak itu saja gereja dimaknai sebagai komunal maupun pribadi yang menjadikan tubuhnya sebagai Bait Allah itu sendiri. Melalu pemahaman tersebut gereja memiliki tanggung jawab untuk dengan sadar menarik orang-orang dari dalam kegelapan menuju terang Kristus yang menyelamatkan. Untuk itu gereja memiliki tugas penting untuk menjawab setiap persoalan, tantangan dan pergumulan umat di tengah konteks yang makin beragam. Tulisan sederhana ini menawarkan sebuah model eklesiologi yang baru dengan nuansa keindonesian. Eklesiologi kebangsaan merupakan sebuah hasil penelusuran sederhana dalam bingkai tema KGPM yakni Yesus Kristus dalam Kebangsaan – Kebangsaan dalam Yesus Kristus. Upaya ini dilakukan sebagai sebuah refleksi eklesial menapaki 92 tahun KGPM berdiri sebagai upaya pembebasan dari segala tekanan, penindasan dan penjajahan yang dilakukan gereja Belanda (Indisce Kerk) yang diyakini menjadi salah satu alat kolonialisme dan iperialisme. Kekhasan Eklesiologi KGPM terlihat dari sejarah berdirinya gereja dalam usaha pembebasan bahkan merupakan bagian dari upaya kemerdekaan Indonesia. Semangat nasionalisme yang timbul dari pemuda-pemuda Minahasa membuahkan sebuah gereja lokal dengan corak keindonesian yang menjunjung tinggi keadilan.

KONSELOR PASTORAL SEBAGAI SAHABAT PEMUDA DI ERA DIGITAL
type: item
description: Adolescence is a pivotal period in individual development, where adolescents experience significant changes in physical, mental, social and emotional aspects. One of the main challenges faced is the management of strong emotions, which is often influenced by their interactions on social media. In the digital world, many teens choose to express their feelings through online platforms, which often only results in superficial interactions and does not solve their emotional problems in depth. Excessive use of social media can actually exacerbate feelings of loneliness and anxiety, and worsen social isolation. Therefore, the role of the pastoral counselor as a friend who is present in person becomes very important. With a love and empathy-based approach, pastoral counselors not only listen to the confessions, but also provide deeper emotional support and spiritual guidance that help teens find balance in their lives. Pastoral counselors can be a safe space for teens to talk about their feelings, address anxieties, and understand life challenges from a broader perspective, away from the negative impact of social media. This approach helps teens build healthier relationships, both emotionally and spiritually, and leads them to face life more readily without depending on social media.
