    Digital natives face self-image problems due to the development of social media. They consider themselves spiritual but not spiritual and are not interested in the church. A foul value system, as well as “Godless”, immoral, unethical, violent, and disparaging content of religion, are spreading without a hitch. All of these things started at a young age. If not answered immediately, this generation can be lost from moral civilization and the correct self-image. So the question arises, what form of synergy is there between the church and spiritual influencers in restoring a native digital self-image? What concrete steps should be? And what is the form of a Biblical native digital self-image? The purpose of this study,[1] is to explain synergies between churches and Christian influencers in the recovery of digital natives.

    Manifestasi karunia Roh Kudus pada gereja mula mula menunjukkan kapasitas kuasa dan pekerjaan supranatural di tengah-tengah komunitas umat percaya. Namun seturut waktu, khususnya dalam perkembangan teknologi, keilmuwan dan sosial media dalam gereja, maka kecenderungan pelayanan hari ini lebih kepada jumlah jemaat, pembangunan fisik dan finansial. Gereja cenderung melemah dalam pengembangan karunia Roh Kudus kepada kaum awam terlebih genarasi Z. Gereja bukan saja kehilangan momentum dalam menjangkau dan memuridkan, namun juga mengalami stagnasi dalam mengembangkan kapasitas karunia-karunia Roh Kudus untuk Generasi Z yang terhisap. Tujuan penelitian adalah menjelaskan strategi yang digunakan dalam pengembangan karunia Roh Kudus kepada generasi Z dalam gereja lokal di era digital. Apabila gereja tidak mempunyai strategi pengembangan karunia Roh Kudus yang jelas kepada mereka, maka gereja akan kehilangan spirit penginjilan, manifestasi kuasa Allah dan kedewasaan rohani ditengah disrupti...

    Generation Z has a low spiritual index of 3.50 compared to the national index of 3.79. It emphasizes the church doing faith deepening and mentoring because they feel alien to spirituality and begin leaving the church. The cause of the low index lies in private practice, namely personal and private loyalty. The index of devotional time and Bible meditation is only 3.0, and compassion-based discipleship evangelism for the lost is very low at 2.63. The question is, how is the church's mission in developing personal practice and evangelism - generation Z discipline? What strategies can take?

    The advancement of the virtual world has shaped the millennial generation and beyond to become digital natives who are out of control, without obstacles, and connected. The global world is presented freely with negative values of life, absurd, meaningless, and seemingly without God. The emphasis is on how to rebuild this fallen, weak, and chaotic native digital self-image. The goal is that through music and kerygma strategies, these Christian influencers can become a catalyst for the digital generation to return to God with the proper self-image. So it is an essential solution because the virtual space has a vast scope, without limits and high flexibility after church services have begun to be abandoned. A research method is a qualitative approach with data collection through literature study and observation. It is hoped that through this research: (1)New Christian influencers will emerge with spiritual content, (2)The millennial generation will repent and recover, (3)So that they w...

    The task of shepherding has always faced growth challenges and obstacles to this day. The level of spiritual community and the arrival of souls is decreasing among the younger generation, and the emergence of the hybrid medium as a system born in the digital era is another challenge. Pastoral relationships and stewardship particularly with this digital native tend to widen and lose their essential value. How can shepherding be consistent and sustainable in this digital age? Such a strategy is the solution? The purposes of this study are to describe the steps of grazing consistency and resilience; redefine the duties and responsibilities of a shepherd according to biblical standards; provide practical steps in pastoral care in the digital age. The method used is descriptive qualitative. The result is a contribution to church pastors to continue to be motivated and persist in their calling for service; to spiritual practitioners to be able to work together with pastoral teams to serve...

    The phenomenon of religious exclusivity does not only occur with other religions but in one religion. The phenomenon of religious exclusivity does not only occur between religious adherents but also between groups of people within the same religion. This phenomenon can be seen in the district of East Sumba, where there is still persecution of priests of different denominations, bullying related to the caste of the congregation, and pastors are higher than others, in local culture. This article provides an understanding of the spirituality of the church's egalitarianism in anticipating Sumba's socio-cultural institutions in placing equal values and rights of everyone in the eyes of God and others, according to Philippians 2:1-8. Research with a qualitative descriptive approach through a literature review found that churches in East Sumba Regency must be inclusive by opening themselves up to existing differences, not just doctrinal differences, but also ethnicity and caste ego...

    Spiritual leadership has experienced a significant correction of service responsibilities for God's church. Several reasons are advances in information technology, social media, and financial problems. On the other hand, the digital generation is the majority of the congregation. The facts show that 6 out of 10 people (59%) leave the Christian faith in the first decade of adulthood, and the number 44% - 52% do not go to church. The personality of the digital generation tends to be eroded, while the church leadership seems to have lost the enthusiasm to reach them. The question is how to build the resilience of spiritual leaders in the digital age? What kind of implications and approaches in developing the personality of the Digital Generation can take? The purpose is to describe the steps to build spiritual leadership resilience and explain the implications and mission approaches of digital generation personality development. Research is a qualitative descriptive method. The res...

    The results of the Barna Institute stated that 57% of children aged 18-29 years did not regularly worship. While a survey from Number Research in the age range of 15-18 years, adolescents who do not usually worship are 7.7%. That increased to 10.2% at the age of 19-22 years and reached 13.7% at this age of 23-25 years. Their level of concern for God and worship decreased drastically. The local church lost its way of shepherding them. Shepherd stewardship did not develop linearly with the development of social media. How should shepherd be? What strategies are used be in face-to-face pastoral care and virtual spaces? This paper aims to restore the quality of pastoring function and bridge the logical church pastoring caretaker with the virtual world. The research method used is a qualitative method with literature study and observation. This research hoped to maximize the shepherding and discipleship of millennial children.

    The research center numbers released the results of the 2021 survey, where generation Z has the smallest spiritual index of 3.50, while the spiritual index of Indonesia is 3.79. The index of understanding dimensions is low, namely 3.13 for self-image and 3.40 for motivation. This paper aims to find a new pastoral strategy in reaching generation Z for self-image restoration and motor development. The next goal is to build synergy with parents in spiritual growth. This study uses a qualitative method with data collection through literature study and observation. The argument is that shepherds play an essential role in developing the understanding dimension of Generation Z. The first step is to restore self-image with the Family Healing Movement with parents. The second thing is that pastors provide spiritual assistance to develop motivation and improve pastoral services on social media through counseling and training guidance. Her contribution; 1) pastors work together with parents to...

    Special attention was paid to the church as a New Testament divine institution with a pastor's role as a spiritual father who was the key in shepherding the digital generation to find an entire Christian life. It did not happen because of discontinuity in functions such as motivational factors, world pressures, and the wrong mentality of the shepherd. They should be maximized the part of the shepherd as a spiritual father in the digital era. The question was, what is the role and function of the spiritual father according to Paul in 1 Corinthians 4:14-21? And what is the strategy for developing the quality of spiritual fathers in existing pastoral leadership? The purpose of this study is: to explain the role and function of spiritual fathers as spiritual fathers referred to by Paul in 1 Corinthians 4:14-21; to define strategies for developing the quality of spiritual fathers in maximum shepherding. This study concludes that the role and function of spiritual fathers in the digital era are: Teaching and mentoring: Digital Generation as Beloved Children (verse 14); Acting as Friends: Character Building the Digital Generation (verse 15); Example and Example – Becoming a Benchmark and Standard for the Future of the Digital Generation (verse 16); Preparing and Releasing New Leaders from the Digital Generation (verse 17)

    Many young people or young people use drugs or illegal substances. This is of course a concern for many groups, including teachers or lecturers from educational institutions.

    The stewardship of mission churches abroad is urgent and cannot be waiting. BCM Perak as a Local Church in Malaysia stands as a form of outreach to the souls of the Indonesian Migrant Workers who work there, requiring servants of God and leaders who can be relied on them. That is related to the limited number of ministers and leaders of the local church who can speak Indonesian. However, the local congregation, mostly Indonesian workers, does not have sufficient capacity and capability to serve and lead. The local mission church lacks ministers in almost all of its existing ministries. Discipleship is a strategic step to give birth to new Christian ministers and leaders with strategies for discipleship and mentoring of local churches. So that the church does not experience service stagnation and can still be a forum for continuous congregational faith development. This research is using the descriptive qualitative method. The purpose of this paper is to provide encouragement and lon...

    Kemajuan dunia virtual telah membentuk generasi native digital lepas kontrol, tanpa hambatan dan saling terkoneksi. Dunia tersajikan bebas, tanpa makna dan seperti tanpa Tuhan. Penggunaan teknologi media setiap hari selama tiga jam 14 menit dapat memberikan dampak buruk seperti stress, depresi, dan pergeseran yang besar dalam dunia rohani.

    This study aims to determine the motive that led to the establishment of Juche by Kim Il Sung amidst the influence of communism and its transformation into religion in North Korea. North Korea is a communist country dictated by Kim Jong-Un of the Kim dynasty and known for its cruelty. The country underwent several changes from Marxism-Leninism to familism to determine its strength in Juche. This ideology that acts as a religion was influenced and strengthened Kim Jong Il to Kim Jong-Un and built by shifting the concept of marxism-Leninism to construct a new understanding of Juche. It will be demonstrated that this ideology was influenced by Confucianism, Christianity, Nationalism, Chinese Communism, and Russian Communism. In the modern era, imperialism was used as an ideological tool to restrict backwardness. This theory allegedly helped Kim Il-Sung establish a unitary, one-person rule over North Korea. ‘It will be examined whether Juche ideology is a tool the state has used to conv...

    This paper is an analysis of various collective resources to consider new challenges in the world of mission. Throughout the third millennium, Christianity was facedwith historically enormous goals and opportunities. The missionary activity is more than two centuries old. It appears that God moved His people in the event of a greatwave of spreading the gospel to various parts of the world. This missionary movement has made it possible for the gospel to be accepted and heard by thousands and even millions of people representing various tribes, ethnicities and cultures. The Bible is translated into hundreds of languages and dialects. according to the phenomenon observed above, today the Church and Christianity arechallenged to carry out the Mission in a far greater opportunity. Seeing the fastpaced changes in this era actually raises a hope of the birth of a new missionmovement in the challenges of the new millennium. This paper aims to provide a missiological overview of the possibil...

    Panggilan gembala dalam perjanjian lama selalu berbicara tentang pekerjaan untuk menjaga kambing, domba, lembu atau binatang peliharaan. Pekerjaan ini termasuk pekerjaan yang hina dalam bangsa Israel dan bangsa lainnya. Masa itu biasanya menjadi tentara atau saudagar lebih layak di bandingkan dengan gembala. Di tanah Mesir sendiri, pekerjaan ini menjadi sesuatu yang sangat hina dan tidak beradab. Selalunya setiap penugasan seorang pendeta atau gembala dalam gereja adalah untuk menggembalakan jiwa jiwa yang Tuhan percayakan kepada mereka untuk dilayani kehidupan rohani. Namun sering kali pelayanan ini menimbulkan konotasi makna bahwa mengembalakan itu harus senantiaa menjadi seorang hamba yang identik sekali dengan tanpa hak, tanpa harta, hina dan tidak mempunyai kuasa atas otoritas atas jemaat yang dilayani. Sehingga banyak sekali gembala hanya berfungsi sebagai “pembicara hari Minggu” atau seseorang yang berfungsi dalam doa, konseling pastoral bahkan hanya diperlukan untuk urusan -...

    George Barna in the introduction in the book A Fish Out of Water describes the order of leadership. First, that one must understand correctly about God's calling in his life to lead. Because not everyone is given the mandate to lead. After that he must understand and the true meaning of leadership because he must know the nature that can move others to be able to continue the all things to follow you. And as long as you lead, leadership competencies must be shown to the maximum for others who are led by you can also be maximum too. So that it is time for each leader to sooner or later face great consequences for his leadership

    Abstrak Manusia adalah makhluk Tuhan yang sangat unik. Berarti unik berbeda dari ciptaan lain. Manusia memiliki pengetahuan, perasaan, dan kekuatan. Tetapi tidak dapat dipungkiri bahwa manusia memiliki kelemahan. Salah satu kelemahannya adalah kurangnya kepercayaan diri, ataudalam bahasa yang biasa disebut "inferior." Orang yang merasa rendah diri akan cenderung menyerah sebelum berjuang, selalu merasa tidak mampu, pingsan, dan tutup mulut. Orang yang selalu melihat kekurangan dalam diri mereka sebagai Bencana adalah orang yang kehilangan citra diri mereka. Berbicara tentang citra diri, maka kita berbicara tentang bagaimana seseorang melihat atau memahami tentang dirinya sendiri dan apa yang dia inginkan di masa depan. Ini berarti bahwa ketika seseorang kehilangan citra dirinya, maka orang tersebut kehilangan masa depannya karena citra diri seseorang akan menentukan kualitas hidup orang tersebut.
