The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has caused countless impacts and influences on human life. It disturbs the order of life and macro and micro-economics, drastically and radically changes human cultural and behavioral patterns, and greatly impacts the concepts of church theology, pastoring, and ministry. This study is a descriptive qualitative study on the COVID-19 and normal & abnormal reactions & responses to it. Through this article, the authors observed that the COVID-19 existence has transformed and recorrected the Christian paradigm on 1) ecclesiology, which to date exclusively based on building to the real Church, namely God’s people in the form of house/“tent” churches; 2) digital media utilization in this Society 5.0 era as God’s grace to all humanity. Findings and changes in society through renewable technology are an inseparable part of the pandemic. A dichotomic gap of understanding between science and technology for centuries should be reformulated. New technological inventions and social media created by humans are media in the hands of God that should be utilized by the Church to minister in various categories to improve the quality of ministry and service; and 3) creative and innovative interpretation of threefold responsibilities of the Church: koinonia, diakonia, and martyria.

Abstract Background The burden of caring for People with Dementia (PWD) is heavy; identifying incentives that motivate them in providing care is essential in facilitating and optimizing care. This study aims to explore and describe these motivating factors. Methods We conducted this qualitative study between January 2016 and January 2017 in Isfahan, Iran. Data were extracted through in-depth, semi-structured interviews with 19 caregivers of PWD. These data were then examined through thematic content analysis. Results We identified four categories of psychological motives based on the caregivers’ feedback and experience. These include 1) Moral-based motives, 2) Religious, and spiritual motives; 3) Financial motives, and 4) Wicked motives. Conclusions Our results revealed several aspects of caregivers’ motives. They include moral, religious, and spiritual aspects; sharing housing accommodations, and the likelihood of inheriting a portion of the patient’s assets based on unspoken rules and informal arrangements in the family, and wicked and immoral aspects. These findings can inform future efforts in enhancing the experiences of caregivers of PWD, and subsequently, the quality of care these patients receive. It further suggests that family members, members of a religious and spiritual organization, as well as social media, could play important roles in setting the stage.

Abstract: This research is a qualitative study on abortion from the perspective of Christian faith. This research was conducted to provide academic arguments and scientific references for the Church against the rampant abortion practices and practices, especially in big cities including Jakarta. Using a qualitative approach, it is found that from a Christian ethical perspective, the act of abortion cannot be justified and chosen as an ethical decision because it contradicts or is contrary to the teachings of the Bible. Because God so loves human life and is even willing to send His only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, to redeem humans from sin. So that humans are not justified in ending the life of an innocent and wronged baby just for practical reasons. Abstrak: Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian kualitatif terhadap aborsi ditinjau dari perspektif iman Kristen. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk memberikan argumentasi akademis dan referensi ilmiah bagi Gereja terhadap maraknya tindakan dan praktik aborsi terutama di kota-kota besar termasuk Jakarta. Dengan menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dijumpai bahwa dari perspektif etika Kristen, maka tindakan aborsi tidak dapat dibenarkan dan dipilih sebagai keputusan etis karena bertolakbelakang atau berlawanan dengan ajaran Alkitab. Karena Allah begitu mencintai kehidupan manusia bahkan rela mengutus Anak-Nya yang tunggal, yaitu Yesus Kristus untuk menebus manusia dari dosa. Sehingga manusia tidak dibenarkan mengakhiri kehidupan bayi yang tidak berdosa dan besalah hanya karena alasan-alasan yang praktis.

Abstrak Wabah covid-19 yang melanda seluruh dunia di awal tahun 2020 telah menyebabkan kesusahan dan penderitaan bagi siapa saja. Akibat dari wabah ini memaksa semua orang untuk melakukan semaksimal mungkin aktivitasnya secara daring yang berbasis online. Ini dilakukan untuk menghindari kerumunan orang banyak guna pencegahan penularan covid-19. Media sosial menjadi pilihan utama dalam melakukan berbagai aktivitas sepeti belajar, bekerja, terlebih aktivitas keagamaan. Metode yag digunakan dalam penulisan artikel ini adalah metode deskriftif kualitatif. Peristiwa covid yang terjadi saat ini tentu mengharuskan umat Tuhan untuk melakukan ibadah di rumah masing-masing dengan mengikuti live streming secara daring, karena peribadatan secara offline tidak direkomendasikan pemerintah di masa pandemi. Pemanfaatan media sosial untuk tetap menjaga rohani dan pertumbuhan jemaat harus diupayakan oleh gereja. Oleh karena itu, penggunaan media sosial sebagai sarana dalam beribadah agar tetap tercipta pertumbuhan iman jemaat merupakan biblika, karena dimasa para jemaat mula-mula pun memulai peribadatan dari rumah ke rumah. Karena konsep ibadah yang tercatat di dalam Perjajian Lama dan Perjanjian Baru dapat menggambarkan bahwa essensi dari ibadah yang sebenarnya adalah hubungan pribadi yang intim antara manusia dengan Allahnya. Kata Kunci: Covid19, Media Sosial, Pertumbuhan Iman, Jemaat. AbstractThe covid-19 outbreak that hit the world in early 2020 has caused distress and suffering for everyone. The aftermath of this outbreak forced everyone to do their best online-based activities. This is done to avoid crowds to prevent the transmission of covid-19. Social media is the main choice in doing various activities such as studying, working, especially religious activities. The method used in the writing of this article is the qualitative descriptive method. The current covid event certainly requires God's people to perform worship in their homes by following live streming online, because offline worship is not recommended by the government during the pandemic. The use of social media to maintain spiritual and congregational growth should be pursued by the church. Therefore, the use of social media as a means of worship in order to keep the growth of the faith of the church is a biblical, because in the early church began to worship from house to house. Because the concept of worship recorded in the Old and New Testaments can describe that the essensi of worship is actually an intimate personal relationship between man and his God. Keywords: Covid19, Social Media, Faith Growth, Church.
