The role of the church really helps congregation members to deal with life's problems including adolescence. The purpose of this paper is to find out how and to what extent the role of the church for today's youth. The church must be able to put itself appropriately in its role in ministry and formation to help church members who have problems, especially for teenagers. The church's role is played by pastors, church boards and other church administrators. The church should help families with problems such as juvenile delinquency. Because currently there are many problems faced by teenagers, especially in relationships with members of the opposite sex.

The method used in this journal is not an observation method but the method used is a qualitative method. Where the research process tends to focus more on theory alone.

In the age of Industrial Revolution 4.0, human life is influenced by various of sophisticated technologies. One of them is social media that increasingly develop, and take some impacts in human life. The fact is there are some priests ignore their pastoral duty and this takes the result that the church is separated. Many of priests don’t live up to their calling as good shepherds. They cannot recognize the church members who entrusted to them by a bishop. This study focus on the influence of social media for a priest’s duty. The research method used in the issue is a qualitative method by using literature approach. I found out that a priest is a shepherd for members of catholic community. A priest ordained by a bishop to continue Christ duty. Social media can become a tool and an equipment for a priest to develop the spiritual life and ministry. The attendance of a priest is the presence Christ as a good shepherd for His sheeps.

Abstract In Phil 4:2–3 Paul urges Euodia and Syntyche to unite with each other. He also addresses ‘true yokefellow’, and asks him to assist the two women. This paper disputes the almost universally held assumption that Paul was asking him to mediate a conflict between the two women. Rather, Paul is here calling the church leaders, Euodia and Syntyche, to have the mind of Christ and to foster unity among the Philippian churches, and the other church members to support them. The term ‘true yokefellow’ is a piece of ‘idealized praise’ and is Paul’s way of diplomatically correcting one or more church members.

A catechist can be called a missionary and saint. This call is very appropriate considering their role in the missionary work of the Church. This research will answer two questions: (1) What is the role of catechists in the missionary work of the Church? (2) What is the professional catechism model in the midst of the needs of the world today? This study uses a qualitative method of literature study. Through this paper, it will be explained that in the mission of the Church, the catechist acts as a spokesman for the Christian congregation, a prophet, an educator and a witness. Where as the professional catechists needed are catechists who always present the Holy Spirit as their soul and missionary spirit while equipping themselves with skills and knowledge.

Hiv Aids

Background: Karo District is one of the districts in North Sumatera province where from 2016 to 2018 the number of HIV sufferers increased dramatically to 384 people and then it increased to 775 people up to September 2020. The aim of this study was to explore the experiences of people with HIV/AIDS and the experiences of the church members regarding people living with HIV/AIDS (PLWHA).Design and Methods: Qualitative research design with descriptive phenomenology approach. Data collection was carried out by interviewing 34 participants in Karo District. The data analysis in this study used the Collaizi technique.Results: Five themes were obtained from the results of the study, namely the responses of the participants diagnosed with HIV/AIDS, health problems faced by PLWHA, stigma and discrimination, the support of family and church members given to PWLHA, and family/church members' expectations toward PLWHA.Conclusions: Based on the findings of the themes, the role of the National AIDS Commission of Moderamen Karo Batak Protestant Church (GBKP) in responding to HIV and AIDS cannot be optimally implemented because of some obstacles namely, localization which is a determinant of the spread of cases, the unavailability of service and ARV in all health centers, lack of sectoral cross-cooperation, very insufficient financial support from the government, the role of nurses played only in the hospitals and the stigmatism to those people with HIV/AIDS due to lack of knowledge of HIV and AIDS.

Although Downtown Church is still a fairly new congregation, it has developed two significant outreach ministries. The church sponsors a team in a community basketball league— made up of congregation members and some external “ringers” who are terrific players but not regular church members. And it sponsors a “before-school” support program at a public high school in a low-income, crime-ridden neighborhood in the city. Both of these programs are similar to efforts made by many congregations, but they also reveal how the church leadership struggles to handle issues of race and inequality beyond its own walls. Here, “racial utility” becomes apparent, as the pastoral leadership often uses black members to help it establish credibility, either with others in the city basketball league or with the public school system. At the same time, many of the church members involved with the programs recognize that even as they are being used for their race, they are in turn using the status of the white leadership to gain entrance into situations they might not have been able to achieve on their own.

I raised this title because I saw in my congregation most of the youths who were less active in fellowship either in church or other services, so this made me think that how the role of the gospel is so that i can have a good impact on youth who are less active in Chiristianly. Because youth are the next generation of the church, it is very important for youth to be active in a fellowship because from there the youth begin to learn and develop their potential. The gospel is one of the (spiritual) needs of our lives. The gospel is good news. Where we as Christians, especially in the ministry, there is our role to preach the gospel. The purpose of this study is to further explain how the impact of the gospel on youth who are less active in the fellowship, the method used in this study is a qualitative method because this research focuses more on theory.

Tujuan penelitian ini untuk memberikan gambaran peranan misi penginjilan terhadap pertumbuhan gereja. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan deskriptif. Melalui penelitian ini diperoleh gambaran bahawa misi penginjilan adalah sarana yang efektif untuk meningkatkan pertumbuhan gereja.

Indonesia is a country that is fertile ground for drug trafficking carried out by domestic dealers and drug dealers internationally. The rise of drugs today causes victims to die every day. President Jokowi came to state that Indonesia was on the verge of a "drug emergency", because every day 50 people died. If in just one year it could reach 18,000 people die each year. Seeing these facts, of course the government appealed through the National Narcotics Agency (BNN) that this should not be left unnoticed because it would have an increasingly bad impact. This research aims to give an idea to the churches that the spread of drugs and the number of users is alarming in the midst of this nation. The method that the author uses in writing this article uses a qualitative method with a literature study approach. The role that can be demonstrated by the church in drug prevention by preaching the dangers of drugs in the pulpits, partnering with BNN institutions as the frontline in eradicating drugs, conducting visits to rehabilitation sites and optimizing the role of families as supervisors. Indonesia merupakan salah satu negara yang menjadi lahan subur dalam peredaran narkoba yang dilakukan oleh para bandar dalam negeri maupun bandar narkoba secara internasional. Maraknya narkoba di masa kini menyebabkan adanya korban yang meninggal setiap hari. Presiden Jokowi pun sampai  menyatakan bahwa Indonesia telah berada pada ambang “darurat narkoba,” dikarenakan setiap harinya meninggal 50 orang. Bila dalam setahun saja  dapat mencapai 18. 000 orang meninggal setiap tahunnya.  Melihat fakta-fakta ini, tentunya pemerintah menghimbau melalui Badan Narkotika Nasional (BNN) mengemukan hal ini tidak boleh dibiarkan begitu saja karena akan semakin berdampak buruk. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk memberikan gambaran kepada gereja-gereja bahwa penyebaran narkoba serta jumlah pemakainya sudah mengkuatirkan di tengah bangsa ini. Adapun metode yang penulis gunakan dalam penulisan artikel ini menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan pendekatan studi literatur. Peranan yang dapat ditunjukkan oleh gereja dalam pencegahan narkoba dengan mengkhotbahkan bahaya narkoba di mimbar-mimbar, bermitra dengan lembaga BNN sebagai garda terdepan pemberantas naskoba, mengadakan kunjungan ketempat rehabilitasi dan mengoptimalkan peran keluarga sebagai pengawas.

Throughout the Covid-19 pandemic, Roma Pentecostal converts in England continued to meet for religious gatherings and communal prayer, either outdoors or in private homes of church members, despite measures put in place by the British government that limited the number of social contacts between individuals and at times forbade visiting other households. Among the members of the Life and Light church are many who belong to one of the high-risk categories for complications from Covid-19. Why would converts take part in activities that involved increased risk of virus transmission and increase their possibility of getting ill? This paper draws on informal online and in-person conversations with Roma that took place during the summer and autumn of 2020 and reflects on religion and communal prayer as a strategy of coping with the heightened uncertainty brought by the pandemic. It argues that participating in religious meetings where people jointly pray for others, both those who present and those who are absent, is an intangible form of care that helps to forge, shape, and maintain social relationships and creates a sense of belonging and continuity. In addition, praying is an embodied expression of one’s relationship to a transcendental entity, Jesus, and of placing oneself into the caring hands of God and Jesus. Lastly, the Church provides material support for members who are in a difficult financial situation. Participating in Church activities like prayer meetings is an expression of belonging to a religious collectivity and can help gain access to this material help in situations when access to state-provided care and material support is limited or absent, thus opening for church members the possibility of tangible forms of care. The paper looks at the role of religion in dealing with the uncertainty that Roma migrants experience when dealing with the state and going about their everyday lives and the upheaval and increased uncertainty brought by the pandemic.
