Therefore, multicultural education requires attention. Apostle Paul's vocation is an important moment about the turning point from monocultural to multicultural ministry. God's commission for the Twelve Apostles to teach and baptize to the ends of the earth, was apparently not fully understood by the Twelve Apostles. They are still Israel-centered minded in mission. By using literature study method, this article aimed to analyze the theological meaning of Paul's vocation in relation to religious education in multicultural context. The result of this study showed that the teaching and life of Apostle Paul had given some insight to accomplish religious education in multicultural context, by implementing contextual religious education. Therefore it could be concluded that religious education must always be aware of the students' life context. Awareness of this context includes awareness of their needs and potention.","PeriodicalId":32879,"journal":{"name":"Dunamis Jurnal Teologi dan Pendidikan Kristiani","volume":"12 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135170775","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article focuses on the dialectical encounter of the cataphatic and apophatic spirituality paths which are by psalmist based on “why” and Meister Eckhart on “without why” in responding to the reality of life, especially amid suffering. For the psalmist, the where, why, and when questions arise not from doubt but from Yahweh’s steadfast love (ḥesed). Even though the psalmist and Eckhart have different perspectives, the dialectic leads to discovery of the other side of God’s face, namely Deus absconditus, the absent God. The dialectically contributed theologically to the form of discovering mystical spirituality amid the agony. At the same time, this enlightens Christians about a mystical path that the face of God can be found not only in Immanuel but also in Deus absconditus; God’s presence is through His absence.Abstrak. Artikel ini berfokus pada perjumpaan dialektik jalan spiritualitas katafatik dan apofatik oleh pemazmur yang mendasarkan pada “mengapa” dan Meister Eckhart pada “tanpa mengapa” dalam menyikapi realitas kehidupan, terkhusus di tengah penderitaan. Bagi pemazmur, pertanyaan di mana, mengapa, dan kapan, bukan muncul dari keraguan melainkan dari keyakinan pada kasih setia (ḥesed) Yahweh. Sekalipun pemazmur dan Eckhart memiliki perspektif yang berbeda, namun dialektika tersebut menuju pada penemuan sisi lain wajah Allah, yaitu Deus absconditus, Allah yang absen. Perjumpaan dialektik tersebut memberikan kontribusi secara teologis berupa penemuan spiritualitas mistik di penderitaan. Ini sekaligus memberikan pencerahan bagi orang Kristen tentang jalan mistik bahwa wajah Allah dapat ditemukan tidak hanya pada Immanuel melainkan juga pada Deus absconditus; Allah yang hadir melalui ketidakhadiranNya.","PeriodicalId":32879,"journal":{"name":"Dunamis Jurnal Teologi dan Pendidikan Kristiani","volume":"40 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135365655","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of forms of social care have become church traditions throughout time. On the other hand, many have predicted that in 2023 the world, including Indonesia, will experience quite heavy economic pressure. In a situation like this, what if the church also experiences a crisis, either financially or in terms of other resources? Can the tradition of social care be annulled? To answer this question, this paper conducted argumentation analysis and social analysis in interpreting 1 Timothy 5:3-16. This study showed that Paul reminded the congregation leader (Timothy), that despite limited conditions, he must not annul this tradition, but in its implementation it must be making sense and educating. Thus, it can be concluded that the church in Indonesia needs to apply making sense and educating principles in practicing a number of social care traditions.Abstrak. Sejumlah bentuk kepedulian sosial telah menjadi tradisi gereja di sepanjang masa. Pada sisi lain, sejumlah pihak memprediksi bahwa pada 2023 dunia, termasuk Indonesia, akan mengalami tekanan ekonomi yang cukup berat. Dalam situasi seperti ini, bagaimana jika gereja ternyata juga mengalami krisis, baik krisis dalam hal keuangan maupun dalam hal sumber daya yang lain? Dapatkah tradisi kepedulian sosial itu dianulir? Untuk menjawab pertanyaan tersebut, tulisan ini menggunakan analisis argumentasi dan analisis sosial dalam memaknai 1 Timotius 5:3-16 ini. Kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa Paulus mengingatkan pemimpin jemaat (Timotius) meskipun kondisi keterbatasan tidak boleh menganulir tradisi tersebut, tetapi dalam pelaksanaannya haruslah rasional dan mendidik. Dengan demikian dapat disimpulkan, gereja di Indonesia perlu menerapkan prinsip rasional dan mendidik dalam mempraktikkan sejumlah tradisi kepedulian sosial.","PeriodicalId":32879,"journal":{"name":"Dunamis Jurnal Teologi dan Pendidikan Kristiani","volume":"57 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135365662","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Metaphysical theology that emphasizes the ability to reach “the truth,” or what is called logocentrism, about God has succeeded in giving rise to violent deviations from religious patterns. Deviations due to this metaphysical theology also lead to a crisis within the body of the philosophy of divinity. By drawing from Jacques Derrida's thoughts on deconstruction, this paper aims to show an attempt to delay logocentrism in metaphysical theology. Deconstruction uncovers the existence of différance which suspends the dependence of theology on logos through metaphor. Metaphors do not come from the mind (logos), but imagination (terra incognita). The talk about Godhead (Theos) through metaphor postpones logocentrism which believes that metaphysics and theology are a unity that can never be separated.Abstrak. Teologi metafisik yang menekankan kemampuan untuk menggapai “kebenaran utuh,” atau yang disebut logosentrisme, tentang Allah telah berhasil melahirkan penyimpangan pola beragama yang penuh kekerasan.

Dengan menimba dari pemikiran Jacques Derrida tentang dekonstruksi, tulisan ini hendak memperlihatkan sebuah upaya menunda logosentrisme dalam teologi metafisik. Dekonstruksi membuka selubung keberadaan différance yang menunda ketergantungan teologi terhadap logos melalui metafor. Metafor tidak datang dari pikiran (logos), melainkan imajinasi (terra incognita).

Sumbanese women often experience silencing in their lives so that they are unable to speak out including on the violence they experience. This silencing also occurs in the field of pastoral care, because it has been going on for long, causes women to be unable to speak up and tell their problems, even when given the opportunity to speak once. It is, therefore, necessary to think of creative ways, other than verbal conversation, to encourage women, especially those who have experienced violence, to tell their stories using cultural elements that are around them and that they live with on a daily live, namely woven fabric. Woven fabric is one example of the use of art as a medium in pastoral counseling. For this reason, a description and analysis of art therapy and Sumba woven fabric from a feminist perspective was carried out. The results of the analysis showed that art therapy through Sumbanese woven cloth can encourage the involvement (emancipation) of women victims of violence in efforts to discover and heal themselves.Abstrak. Perempuan Sumba sering mengalami pembungkaman dalam kehidupan mereka sehingga mereka tidak mampu bersuara termasuk atas kekerasan yang mereka alami. Pembungkaman ini juga terjadi dalam bidang pendampingan pastoral, yang karena sudah terlalu lama berlangsung, menyebabkan kaum perempuan tidak mampu untuk berbicara dan menceritakan masalah mereka, bahkan ketika diberi kesempatan bicara sekali pun. Karena itu perlu dipikirkan cara-cara kreatif, selain bentuk percakapan verbal, untuk mendorong kaum perempuan, secara khusus mereka yang mengalami kekerasan untuk bercerita dengan menggunakan unsur budaya yang ada di sekitar mereka dan yang mereka hidupi sehari-hari, yaitu kain tenun. Kain tenun menjadi salah satu contoh penggunaan seni sebagai media dalam konseling pastoral. Untuk itu akan dilakukan deskripsi dan analisis tentang terapi seni dan kain tenun Sumba dari perpektif feminis. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa terapi seni melalui kain tenun Sumba dapat mendorong keterlibatan (emansipasi) perempuan korban kekerasan dalam upaya penemuan dan penyembuhan dirinya.","PeriodicalId":32879,"journal":{"name":"Dunamis Jurnal Teologi dan Pendidikan Kristiani","volume":"38 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135365656","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This article discusses the importance of the worship service for renewing the baptismal promise. Such renewal can be seen as a way of integrating worship and pastoral ministry for the strengthening of Christian identity. Christian identity marked by baptism has been viewed as a formality and God’s people become a spectator. The promise made in baptism as an important milestone of discipleship has slowly lost its influence because many forget it. Thus, the church needs to guide the people into the process of renewing such a promise. This study was conducted by literature research methods to analyze the biblical-theological meaning of Jesus' baptism in Matthew 3:13-17. The results of this study showed that baptismal vows need to be renewed continuously and facilitated through the holding of religious services. The service of renewing baptismal promises is not a re-baptization but the maintenance of the meaning and power of the baptism that has been received.Abstrak. Artikel ini membahas pentingnya kebaktian pembaharuan janji baptis sebagai wujud integratif antara ibadah dan penggembalaan demi penguatan identitas Kristiani. Identitas yang ditandai melalui ritual baptisan seringkali dipandang sebatas formalitas dan diikuti sebagai tontonan bagi umat yang sudah dibaptis. Janji baptis sebagai tonggak awal kemuridan menjadi kurang berpengaruh dalam perjalanan iman karena sudah dilupakan. Gereja perlu menuntun umat Allah ke dalam momen pembaharuan janji baptis dalam konteks kebaktian demi memelihara kesinambungan komitmen sebagai komunitas murid Kristus. Kajian ini menggunakan metode riset literatur untuk menganalisa makna biblis-teologis baptisan Yesus dalam Matius 3:13-17. Hasil kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa janji baptis perlu dibaharui secara kontinu dan difasilitasi lewat pelaksanaan kebaktian. Kebaktian pembaharuan janji baptisan bukanlah pembatisan ulang namun pemeliharan makna dan kekuatan baptisan yang telah diterima.","PeriodicalId":32879,"journal":{"name":"Dunamis Jurnal Teologi dan Pendidikan Kristiani","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136210674","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
