The document analyzes sermons given at Christian churches in Palangka Raya, Indonesia. It finds that most sermons follow a deductive structure and are expository in type, using appropriate illustrations. The contents focus on strengthening faith in God, restoring moral values like love, and fostering social welfare and tolerance between religious believers. Churchgoers felt the sermons helped them learn and feel ready to practice moral values like tolerance in their lives. However, the inductive model and messages directly promoting tolerance could further strengthen interfaith harmony.
Transformative Pedagogy, Black Theology and Participative forms of PraxisJonathan Dunnemann
This document discusses transformative pedagogy, Black theology, and participative praxis. It outlines how the author seeks to combine transformative modes of pedagogy from Paulo Freire with the liberative themes of Black theology. It summarizes key contributions from Freire, Black religious educators like Grant Shockley and Olivia Pearl Stokes, and discusses the author's own participative approach to Black theological scholarship using experiential learning exercises. The overall goal is conscientization and formation of lay people and ministers through this interactive theological education approach.
This phenomenological study explores how eight students from different worldviews understand and describe spirituality. The students represented Agnosticism, Atheism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Judaism, Muslim, Protestantism, and Roman Catholicism. Data was collected through photo elicitation where students took photos to represent spirituality, and semi-structured interviews to discuss the photos and their understanding of spirituality. The study aims to develop a description of spirituality based on these diverse student experiences and perspectives.
Moral theology has undergone paradigm shifts since Vatican II, moving from a deductive to more inductive, dynamic method. It is becoming more theological by grounding ethics in Christian anthropology and dogma. A renewed moral theology is Christ-centered, focusing on agapeic love as the goal of discipleship. It emphasizes virtue over principles and integrates spirituality, considering morality as flowing from one's relationship with God.
The pivotal role of religion and spirituality in the lives of African Americans marks this ethnoracial group as a particularly important target for attention in research on the psychology and sociology of religion. In this chapter we endeavor to achieve three ends: First, we briefly review literature on meanings of religiosity and spirituality among African Americans. Second, we review the literature on the link between religiosity, spirituality, and health among African Americans. Finally, we examine findings regarding the pathways by which religion and spirituality may achieve its ends.
1) A group of 9 Christian university students in Port Moresby debate whether to continue dialoguing with two Mormon missionaries to learn more about their faith and address cultural issues important to locals.
2) The missionaries were able to address questions about ancestry that Christians struggle with from a biblical perspective.
3) The students were unprepared to respond to the missionaries' teachings and argue why Mormonism differs from Christianity, pointing to a need for better discipleship.
This study explores adolescent religious commitment using qualitative data
from a religiously diverse (Jewish, Christian, Muslim) sample of 80 adolescents.
A new construct, anchors of religious commitment, grounded in interview data, is
proposed to describe what adolescents commit to as a part of their religious
identity.
An Examination of Spirituality in the African American ChurchJonathan Dunnemann
Previous studies investigate whether spirituality aids African Americans in coping with the complexities of life when confronted with a host of issues such as higher levels of poverty, health issues, and incarceration. However, few studies have examined the consistency of spirituality across multiple parameters. This study examines spirituality across gender, city, and the interactions of gender and city. Findings indicate the consistency of spirituality within the African American community supporting the role of the church for males and females in both rural and urban settings.
Religion is a social institution found in all societies that helps explain life's mysteries and provide meaning and purpose. While religions vary in beliefs and practices across places and times, they generally propose sacred explanations for life's questions like what happens after death. Sociologists study how religion impacts society and social institutions, and how society shapes religion. Functionalism views religion as promoting social cohesion by creating a community and shared values, while Marxism sees religion preventing awareness of social inequalities. Individual perspectives emphasize how people construct their own religious beliefs and relationships.

The document examines differences in models of agency between college-educated (BA) and less educated (HS) European Americans. Through three studies, the authors found that:
1) BA participants and their preferred cultural products (rock lyrics) emphasized expressing uniqueness, controlling environments, and influencing others, whereas HS participants and their preferred products (country lyrics) emphasized maintaining integrity, adjusting selves, and resisting influence.
2) When given choices, BA participants liked chosen objects more, but choice did not affect HS participants' preferences, reflecting their different agency models.
3) The findings suggest BA and HS models of agency qualitatively differ, though there is overlap between their worlds.
Role of religion in society and humanitarian actionShakeb Nabi
Religion plays an important role in society and humanitarian action in three key ways:
1) Religion influences many societies' underlying values and no country has a complete separation of religion and state.
2) The number of faith-based organizations (FBOs) involved in humanitarian work is growing, though their roles and impacts depend on the specific context and crises.
3) FBOs are motivated to both spread their religious influence and assist suffering communities based on their core values, and their presence can help facilitate access to populations in need during humanitarian crises.

Role of Religion in Government, Family and Businesses (Sarah Olivarez-Cruz)Sarah Cruz
Religion plays an important role in government, families, and business according to the document. Marx saw religion as rationalizing inequality while Durkheim saw it as promoting social unity. Weber noted religion's role in social change and the development of capitalism. The document discusses how religion provides social harmony and moral guidance. It influences celebrations, crises, and family values in Philippine society. Religion also promotes trust and ethics in business according to some views. However, issues have emerged regarding use of funds and influence in education.

Globalization has interconnected religion and technology, allowing religions to spread more efficiently across borders. Religions use various technological tools like books, movies, apps and social media to teach beliefs globally. This has led to new developments as small religions can now engage in overseas activities. While globalization allows wider religious access, it has also enabled the expansion of extremist ideas and terrorist recruitment through online sermons and communication networks. In conclusion, globalization will likely continue impacting religion as cultures and ideas spread through advancing technology, both positively and negatively.
Biblical foundations of christian education (3)abibuag
The document discusses the biblical foundations of Christian education. It examines how education is portrayed in both the Old and New Testaments.
In the Old Testament, education took place through socialization and nonformal means, with God, families, prophets, priests, sages, and community playing teaching roles. In the New Testament, Jesus and his disciples provided instruction, and the early church taught through community and leadership. Various Greek words are used to describe teaching concepts in both testaments.

Discipleship Formation in the African Methodist Episcopal Church in the 21st ...Jonathan Dunnemann
This qualitative case study sought to discover if the African Methodist Episcopal Church is intentional in the discipleship formation of its members. My study examined five African
Methodist Episcopal Churches in the Midwest and included 60 clergy and non-clergy participants. I conducted one-on-one interviews with the clergy and I held focus groups of seven to ten participants with the non-clergy. Also as part of the study, I observed weekly worship services, adult Sunday school classes, and mid-week Bible studies at each of the five churches. The major findings revealed discipleship formation is not a one-time event, but a journey with four components: 1) the participants understanding and definition of discipleship as journey, 2) discipleship formation journey aids inside the church, 3) discipleship formation journey hindrances inside the church, and 4) discipleship formation journey aids outside the church. I
analyzed the findings using four theoretical frameworks: 1) myths, rituals, habits, and the sacred; 2) critical pedagogy; 3) black liberation theology; and 4) transformational leadership. Analysis of the data revealed the foundational Christian education programs within the church are struggling with being relevant to people’s everyday lives. Second, role models play an important part in discipleship formation. Third, because of time constraints, church leaders do not get to focus on their discipleship formation so they can be role models and help others on their journeys.
Papua theology a new paradigm in theologyAt Ipenburg
This document outlines a proposal for a new approach to systematic theology called "theology from below." It evaluates existing contextual theologies like liberation theology and suggests focusing on how ordinary Christians practice their faith and struggle for freedom. It discusses how modern society challenges traditional top-down models of theology and argues theology should study how people are inspired by gospel values today rather than legitimizing institutional church positions. The document uses the example of West Papua, where theologians study hymns and movements to understand local Christian faith under oppression.

This chapter discusses how the sociology of religion remains relevant in late modern society despite classical theories predicting religion's decline. While an economic-technological rationality dominates, non-strategic action and contexts where rationality and other factors coexist still exist. Religion continues providing meaning and intersecting with social, economic, and political life. The sociology of religion's inattention to religion partly reflects overemphasis on rationality and relegating religion as nonrational in modern thought.
This document summarizes key topics related to the globalization of media and religion. It discusses theories of cultural imperialism and debates around the globalization of media. It also examines perspectives on how globalization leads to both the homogenization and hybridization of culture through interactions between global and local forces. Media are seen as both spreading Western influence globally but also enabling new hybrid cultural forms to emerge through complex local adaptations to global flows. Religion is discussed as both a transnational institution and as adapting in diverse ways to globalizing influences.
The document discusses the role of mosques in human resource development from an Islamic perspective. It argues that mosques can serve as places to educate people about Islamic human resource practices and values. Specifically, it outlines how mosques can:
1) Discuss topics related to Islamic HR practices during sermons to raise awareness.
2) Serve as training centers for Islamic values that are relevant to the workplace such as taqwa, akhlaq, and itqan.
3) Host talks by Islamic scholars on applying Islamic principles in different sectors to provide practical guidance.

This document provides course descriptions for graduate courses taken by Palladino Robert Alfred. The courses cover topics such as biblical foundations, theological foundations, Vatican II teachings, historical foundations, biblical spirituality, Christian spirituality, the nature of love, theology and ministry of the word, Old Testament wisdom literature, eschatology, Mary in the modern world, and comparative religion. The courses examine scripture interpretation, theology, church history, spiritual writings, philosophical perspectives on love, preaching and teaching the word of God, wisdom literature, last things, Marian apparitions, and other religions.
Whither Shall We Go? The Past and Present of Black Churches and the Public Sp...Jonathan Dunnemann
This document summarizes the debate among scholars about the role of Black churches in addressing racial inequality. Some key points:
1) Early scholars viewed Black churches as primarily "accommodating" of racial inequality by not challenging segregation. More recent scholars argue they were also "resistant" by organizing protests.
2) This created an oversimplified binary that doesn't capture the complexity - Black churches have elements of both and their role has changed over time based on the social context.
3) Today, some argue Black churches fill a gap by addressing racial issues since the government has taken a colorblind approach. Others oppose their political involvement due to separation of church and state.

A Longitudinal Case Study The Development Of Exceptional Human Experiences O...Jennifer Holmes
This study examined the development of exceptional human experiences (EHEs) in 8 senior professionals in the German Catholic Church who participated in a 12-day training over 9 months on intercultural and interreligious competencies. Participants completed a questionnaire measuring EHEs before and after the training. The results showed an increase in positive spiritual experiences and visionary dreams, and a more positive evaluation of these experiences. Participants also reported a decrease in negative spiritual experiences. This suggests that training can enhance intercultural/interreligious competence by raising awareness of spiritual practices and shifting perceptions of EHEs from negative to positive.

This document discusses how religion serves as a source for communication policies in Nigeria. It examines two dominant religions in Nigeria - Islam and Christianity. Some key points:
1) Religious actions, statements by religious leaders, and beliefs from holy books have influenced the behavior and regulation of mass communication in Nigeria.
2) While the Nigerian constitution provides the ultimate source of communication policy, the lack of a formal national policy leaves room for religious influences.
3) Examples of religious influences on policy include the first printing press established by the Presbyterian Church and restrictions on media coverage of religious events to avoid conflicts between faiths.
Towards Inclusive Religion Through Religious Moderation: A Case Study in Mult...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT:This study aims to explore the role of religious moderation in promoting inclusive religion in
multireligious communities. The aim is to understand how religious moderation practices can support dialogue,
cooperation, and respect for religious differences in creating an inclusive and harmonious environment.
Religious moderation is a framework for how to build a religion that is rahmatan li al alamin, a moderate
religious perspective, and a tawasuth attitude. So far, many have misunderstood between religion and religious
thought. Religion is something sacred and true that cannot be changed and criticized, while religious thought
can be criticized because it can be right or wrong because it depends on the level of understanding. Therefore, in
understanding religious thought so as not to be exclusive and not extreme right or extreme left, it requires
moderate thinking, one of which is the religious moderation program that has been launched by the Ministry of
Religious Affairs. This article will explore how religious moderation according to the views of maqasidshari'ah,
religious moderation relates to human rights, and how the paradigm used in building an inclusive understanding
of religion with the foundation of various kinds of science, one of which is to make integrative-interconnective
scientific epistemology as a paradigm in religious moderation.

A Case Study In Adult Discipleship Implications For Pastoral Leadership And ...Joe Andelija
This document provides a summary of a case study on adult discipleship at an Anglican church in Toronto. The study found that discipleship was understood as a process of following Jesus in community, guided by the church's Discipleship Covenant. Discipleship was seen as something that takes time and occurs over a lifetime, rather than a destination that is reached. The church emphasized becoming disciples through involvement in worship, prayer, study, and sharing one's faith, both individually and together as a community.

Relevant and Effective Theological Education for Twenty First.pptjoshva raja john
This document discusses relevant and effective theological education for 21st century India. It argues that theological education should be dialogical and interactive, starting from students' meanings and experiences. It should involve teachers, students, churches and the broader community in an ongoing process of creating, sharing, interpreting and analyzing their faith experiences and meanings in relation to their contexts. This recognizes that standardized, top-down models of education have not helped churches respond to needs. Theological education should maintain a creative tension between faith, experience and social realities, through community engagement and consideration of multiple models for doing theology in different contexts.

Endoprosthesis replacement-operational treatment of diseases and damages of hip joint. The problem of prevention of complications and their negative effects is extremely actual today. However the role of different beam techniques in identification of adverse effects and complications of endoprosthesis replacement of joints is studied insufficiently. Results of clinic and diagnostic and beam researches of 40 patients with pathology of hip joint are analyzed. The used beam methods of research - roentgenography, multispiral computed tomography. At presurgical stage the main objective was detection of pathology of joint, definition of indications and planning of operative measure. Situation and relationship of components of endoprosthesis, condition of bone tissue, and also bone cement round cup and leg of prosthesis were key parameters of radiological assessment of outcomes of endoprosthesis replacement. Complex use of radiological techniques (roentgenography and spiral computed tomography) allows to specify and add semiotics of changes of bone tissue at the level of acetabular hollow and proximal department of femur after endoprosthesis replacement. by Janibekov J.

At the time of what is considered primitive today, our ancestors were a hundred times more poets than we are. Thousands of years ago, the way of thinking of our ancestors was in the form of “poetic observation”: they accepted their life and everything in nature as a symbol of their imaginary concepts. At that time it was understood that the sky, water, greenery, sun, moon, light and darkness had a soul; the day was replaced by night, and the struggle between good and evil was thought to be over. by More Citation Formats https://journals.researchparks.org/index.php/IJIE/article/view/887/842 https://journals.researchparks.org/index.php/IJIE/article/view/887

From Homiletic Perspective

ABSTRACT
This paper analyses the type, structure and content of preacher’s sermons on Sunday service of
Christian’s churches, and congregation’s perception upon sermons related to the improvement of
tolerance amongst religion believers in Palangka Raya. A triangulation of qualitative and quantitative
data, collected through a range of interviews, observation, sermon recorded, and questionnaire provided
evidences that most of sermons’ structure belongs to homiletic-deductive model and the type of sermon
was dominated by expository, complemented by appropriate illustrations, while the contents consist of
messages which aimed to strengthen the fear of God’s based on Christian doctrine, to restore moral
health, and to practice those moral values, —genuine love—for enhancing social welfare and tolerance
amongst religions believers. Congregations perceived that preachers have mastered sermons’ content
very well, which supported by a well preparation of sermons, while preaching effectiveness was affected
by preachers’ holiness behaviors. By attending Sunday service regularly, congregations believed that
there was an enrichment on their knowledge, the feeling of tranquility and readiness to practice those
knowledge and moral values in social life characterized, among others, by tolerance attitude amongst
religion believers. It is recommended that preaching model could be innovated from deductive into
inductive model in which the contents could be more enriched by messages which aimed to strengthen
genuine tolerance amongst religion believers.
Keywords: Preaching; tolerance amongst religion
1. INTRODUCTION
Fostering interfaith harmony, is a major challenge in Indonesia as "exclusivism still strong in our
religious life" (Titaley; 2013: 1), something that is actual; no less than 80 percent of cases of conflict of
2010 was conflict inter (CRCCS, Graduate UGM 2010), or "is still there ... the majority who do not
understand that the destiny Indonesia is living with diversity in diversity (the vice president, Kompas,
June 2, 2013, p. 1, column 6; italics by the author), Indonesia inherited cultural pluralism, customs,
languages and other areas (Azra, 2002: 39), the logical consequence of a socio-anthropological and
geographical conditions as a maritime nation
The root problem of religious exclusivism, the opposite of harmony, very deep and complex.
From the perspective of socio-historical religions Abrahamic inherit "the gift of Jew" so that the nations
of Western and non-Western stuck in the "trap Jews", which has two dimensions, namely "Israel Bible as
(1) a nation blessed, and (2) the nation holy "(Titaley, 2013: 19), which impede long period of emotional
and intellectual aspects of its adherents.
Glasses of theological reflection and socio-political as stipulated in the Constitution of '45 (see
Chapter XI, Article 29, Paragraph 1 and 2), Indonesia actually has a solid political platform that
guarantees egalitarian principle in religious life. Nonetheless, at the level of group behavior, as if rampant
"the race between Islam and Christianity" according to the analysis of the Dutch scholar, Schrieke (1955
& 1957; in Azra, 2002: 202), which is not proper as well, but the effect remains the stigma of infamy
mutual reproach. Islamic circles as revealed Boland (1971: 43; in Azra, 2002: 213) "denied the truth of
the Christian faith, while the Catholic priest and Protestant minister looked at the faith of Islam as
backward and bigoted."

To respond to these issues, Christian religious education need to narrow the gap between
dimensions credenda and agenda. Yewangoe (2011: xiii) explains, "credenda refers to what is believed or
trusted, which can be expressed through the creed, or confession, while the agenda refers to the behavior
and attitudes of ethical and moral undertaken by credenda earlier." Ethical behavior is to be realized not
by itself, but through the learning process according to UNESCO's four pillars of education, "learning to
live together" focused on the appreciation and practice of universal human moral values are "salam"
(peace) and "love" (Azra, 2002: 204). The core values diaktualiasi sincerely in "human relations that are
cultural, human and spontaneous" (Yewangoe, 2011: 43), yan in the teachings of Christianity with respect
to the first main law and the man ordered to ". , , love the Lord your God with all your heart and all your
soul and with all your mind. "Followed by the second law is" Love your neighbor as yourself "(Matius.
22-37-39).
The importance of community development contained in theses Quraish Shihab, the "catastrophe
could occur not because religious people do not understand other people's religion, but also because of the
inability to understand their own religion" (Yewangoe, 2011, p. xviii). Therefore, to foster Christians, the
religious functionaries, such as priests among Protestant Christians, the role is very strategic to do
exegesis, or preach a sermon material according to the Bible to occur "complete mastery" Christianity
among his people. The effectiveness of the proclamation of the Bible that can be traced from the
theoretical framework of communication (Hesselgrave, 2005) and homiletics (Susanto, 2007) taking into
account the socio-cultural context. From the perspective of communication theory and homiletics, the
sermon can be packaged in a small model of "Who (source) to convey what (message) through what
channels (channel) to whom (audience) and how they affect (effect), accompanied by planning social
background culture (context ). "
2. RESEARCH ISSUES
Based on the phenomenon of religious exclusivism and the cause, the need for an assessment
that is focused on, "How the structure and substance of the preaching of the pastor, is associated with the
method of presentation in the churches in Palangkaraya, diertai response harmony pilgrims in the context
of social life?"
Therefore, this study aimed to:
1. Uncover and analyze the structure and coherence of the message components, including sources,
types, themes and substance and implementation.
2. Describe and analyze in more detail some of the dimensions of the nature of the message, include the
destination, its preparatory process, style of presentation, and view the sermon Pastor orientation
toward fostering religious harmony and change among the congregation.
Revealing the church's response to a sermon the pastor of the aspects of knowledge, faith, and
religious tolerance. Results of this study have implications for the development of much-needed
homiletics in the churches in Indonesia, whose status as a science and art of preaching, which combines
the word preached in church, which is based on an accurate interpretation of the Bible and the
development of principles and methods of preaching. In addition the results of this study are very useful
to develop and foster:
1. Policy-based religious life character education for harmony among religious believers.
2. Institutions to prepare the religious teachers, pastors and other professional personnel, related to
curriculum development, concerning: the arrangement of the relevant knowledge, the lecture and
community service for prospective teachers of religion, pastor or preacher of the Bible.
3. The Church, in relation to the role of the pastor in order to more successfully implement his sermon.
3. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
1. Essence Preaching
Preaching the good is essentially the transaction process between the preacher and the
congregation, because according to Killinger (2009: xiii) "preach not the work that can be done alone ...
but it involves a lot of the community of faith, and the Bible is the center of a sermon held by the
community. "And the" Bible-centered God (Killinger, 2009: 11). Therefore preach a business process that

goes on forever, because "he grew through reflection, the attitude of listening, prayer, reassessment"
(Killinger, 2009: xiii) and "never considered acting alone, occurs in a succession (Killinger, 2009: 3).
Preaching involves the totality of the personality of the preacher as preaching as said Brooks
(Killinger, 2009: 5) is the "truth through personality," which originated from "the first call, to love"
because empathy or "look at the human condition or feeling horror and others (Killinger 2009: 5-6).
Although the sermon was difficult to be structured but Killinger (2009: 58-68) describes the
structure or form of discourse include: (1) impressionistic, (2) development, (3) a description, (4)
classification, (5) faceting, and (6 ) experimental.
2.Teori Communications
The communication process is really fundamental to the whole process of psychological and
social us "(DeFleur, 1970: 76; in Hesselgrave, 2005: 37), and communication skills are really only found
in humans in the sense he was" capable of exchanging meaning through the use of symbolism symbol
"(Hesselgrave, 2005: 53). In the context of the proclamation of the Bible through the sermon,
communication is a very important process, as in the phrase Agustin quoted Murphy (1960: 408; in
Hesslgrave, 2005: 33) that "There are two things you need to treat Scripture: How to find (mode
inveniendi ) things will be understood, and how to express it to others (profendi mode) what we have
learned. "
The communication process is very complex, can be simplified by borrowing model of
cybernetic, so Claude and Shannon (2005: 38) identifies the elements of communication, namely: sender
(sender), receiver (receiver), channel (channel), code, encoder, decoder, "noise" and feedback (feedback).
3. Homiletics
Position sermon very central, Rothlisberger (2006: 6-7) explains that before preaching "must be
considered the basis of his message and preaching the good way." He also explained, must be met
"homiletics material, concerning material or nats sermons and homiletics formal" regarding form and the
implementation of the sermon, both can not be separated from the purpose of the sermon.
4. RESEARCH METHODS
This study used a qualitative method to uncover the problem "by examining various social
setting and the individual who inhibit Reviews These settings (Berg, 2007: 8). This qualitative research
focus is on the dimension of "unquantifiable facts" relating to people. Implementation process refers to
the "spiral model of research approaches" (Berg, 2007: 24), namely through a sequential workflow: from
ideas, literature review, design, data collection, analysis and findings, until finally the dissemination of
research results. Related to research methods are two important aspects that must be met, namely the
validation of research results and the code of ethics of research must be fulfilled.
To ensure the validity of the study, applied "triangulation techniques" (Berg, 2007: 5-8), to
implement "some techniques to collect data" in the implementation, which is "the attempt to relate them
so as to counteract the threat to validity indentified in each . "Fielding and Fielding (1986: 31; in Berg,
2007: 6-7. To meet the code of conduct, two important things to do are:
• Request for approval of the church and pastor berangkutan as a research subject.
• Ensure the confidential aspects of resources by eliminating all the personal identity of the priest in the
research report.
Determination of the sample to move from the stage of identifying the three types of denominations of
Protestant churches, so that the selected 13 samples of a church based on the principle qouta sample
(Berg, 2007: 44) and 513 congregations as respondents who were selected based on the principles of
convenience sample (Berg, 2007: 44) that its distribution as follows :
• From PGI (Communion of Churches in Indonesia) selected five churches and 280 congregations, with
the details: GKE Sakatik (38 churches), GKE Hosanna (91 churches), GKE Agape (50 congregations,
GKE Sinar Kasih (75 congregations) and HKBP Palangkaraya (26 churches).

The church of the 13th collected 52 pieces of recorded sermon Sunday worship. Deepening the nature of
the message using the 13 priests who were purposively selected based on the principle of purposive
sample (Berg, 2007: 44).
To collect the data, there are four instruments to collect data, associated with data sources, namely:
1) Record the message on each sermon of every kind of church denominations, which were processed and

5. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
1. The view Pastor of Preaching and Worship Itself Sunday
Based on the results of interviews with 13 pastors from 13 churches, is clearly revealed the
nature of the sermon delivered them in the event of worship every Sunday. Although there is variation in
the content of the exposure of the priests, but there is some common ground.
According to the pastor of worship on Sunday is an obligation of a group of people, or a
fellowship of believers which aims to foster Rokhani or to strengthen the faith; worship is an important
moment to bow down to God or give thanks for the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Sunday worship involves transactions between the pastor and the congregation. Expected from
the presence of the congregation who came to worship the faith growth and maturity as a personal self, in
addition to the awareness of God's grace. The congregation is also expected to seriously follow the event
in order to comprehend, understand and perform the contents of the sermon. In other words, in addition
they really understand about God, they also become doers of the word of God.
Meanwhile, in the context of worship on Sunday, the pastor, in the context of management also
serves to coordinate elders and deacons who carry out the task. In accordance with a position that is very
central, pastor holds a few important role namely as a model or example to maintain the sanctity of life in
the framework of his duties as a fitting aspiration God through communicating the Word-his words are
translated contextually in everyday life, so that the congregation really feel and pervading meaning.
During the preparation stage, the pastor do some things as a habit that has been attached. When
preparing the sermon prepared two main points, namely:
a. Personal preparation in the form of purification of the heart and mind, as well as the concentration
that the services provided really good quality. In this regard, the preparation is always
accompanied by prayer as komuniasi media to obtain God's help, in addition to fasting or
meditation.
b. Preparation of material (exegesis), in the form of preaching, and material science analysis which
is based on the Bible that is read repeatedly, the following interpretation for the words of God that
will be presented really elected and according to the situation or needs of the congregation.
Preparation of material with the planning of delivery means as simple as possible so that the
congregation after worship, they obtain "something" of value, ie, in addition to know what needs
to be done is also able to apply them in everyday life. To complete the word of God was also
examined the contents of the book relevant, personal experience and reflection leading edge of the
media material (eg, the Internet).
Two things are considered carefully in the preparation of materials sermon, namely (1) the needs
of the church, in addition to the characteristics of churches that heterogeneous (for example, the level of
intellect to understand the theology of high maturity pilgrims, and character) as well as consideration of
the challenges of life now and that will come; and (2) the word of God to be submitted in accordance with
the will of God. Additionally there are things that are guarded so as not to offend or judge certain
elements.

Sermon itself absolutely must come from the Bible with enrichment relevant example of a living
testimony or other illustrations, or parables that supports passage, in order to facilitate the pilgrims to
understand the content of the sermon.
The interpretation of the verse should be careful, and to meet the requirements of science
knowledge is needed to interpret, understand the context per the context and style of the language used.
Preachers must focus on nats and faithful to the concept that no exegesis (deciphering text) and eigese
(add). Interpretation approach the passage originally referred to the interpretation of the type expository,
but do not get too far or stray from the verses of the principal.
Delivery of the sermon should be systematic. Systematics sermons include :,
Introduction containing a short story or background passages, outlines interpretation, relevance
and conclusions. Then the contents of the message, followed by the application.
The contents of the message, include the contents of the Bible that have been dug, accompanied
by illustrations or life experience.
Cover, contains an appeal, along with the messages that need to be held, which ended with the
conclusion that applied in everyday life. Attempted delivery techniques do not monotonous (eg,
there are interludes ilusrrasi) so that the congregation remain focused to hear the word of God.
The duration of the message, there is no provision for sure, but as a reference which is between
15-20 minutes.
Submission sermon involves complicated issues, related to efforts to draw attention to how the
church, with illustrations on the one hand and the emphasis on the substance of awareness on the other.
The priests, who understand themselves as preachers of the Bible argues, the orientation of the contents of
the message delivery is not imposed in order to please the congregation who heard, but touched two parts:
heart and ratios, which are expected to live eternally therein. Awareness it should be emphasized (for
example, to repent) so that there is the renewal of life in the form of real action; it is necessary to
strengthen the awareness of faith, while the illustrations, as inserts, such as witness of life, which is
intended to assist the simplification of the message content so that the church better understand the
content of what was spoken pastor.
Changes in behavior towards life as a congregation of true Christians is very coveted. How
changes in the routine follow church after worship on Sunday, according to the pastor, the changes do
exist such as increasing knowledge and readiness involved in church activities, or arrive on time.
The role of the church and the pastor of the church to foster individual behavior in social life in
the context of pluralism in Indonesia is so important. In this connection preaching contains the value of
the teaching of Jesus. In the delivery of news, pastor not seek popularity by assessing antarsesama church
for example, but are keeping religious tolerance, based on the philosophy of harmony which is based on
love between human beings, without interfering in the faith laiunnya.
Nevertheless some pastor explained, no doubt, that there is only the content of sermons judge
other religions, although generally in Palangkaraya, interfaith tolerance is quite high in this regard there is
a sermon broadcast contains religious harmony in the second week at the RRI.
To promote the community in the future, how the role of preaching, according to the pastor,
church management needed improvement, supported by better cooperation, peningtkatan organization
and means. Church growth is necessary, not only in terms of quantity but also the quality of the
understanding, the church sermon apply in real life and become a blessing in life. In this regard, the
content of the message is really rooted in the word and loaded with the value of love and not be
judgmental or spread provocation.
2. Structure and Substance Sermon
Having to 52 recordings sermon Sunday service is written in the form of transcripts and analyzed
by codification made with the inductive approach, is clearly revealed several issues related to the
structure of the message which includes (1) a systematic presentation: introduction, contents and cover,
and (2) the type sermon includes sourcing scriptures, theme, content and expression of its application.
Opening sermon aims to start the communication process in order to attract the interest and
attention of the church against preaching that they listen intently, understand, permeates the heart and
reason, and then determined to implement it. Although the style of sermon delivery varies among pastors,
but there are some fundamental similarities, including raw expression and the content of the message

delivery technique. In the 52nd sermon, standard greeting is an expression of the word love, followed by
theme and penggugahan attention in the form of expression or illustration depicting the gap between the
normative moral values with the reality in the reality of life.
The main source is the substance of the sermon entirely scriptures, despite inset illustrations here
and there. With regard to the scriptures delivered pastors, illustrated spread the word prepared Pastor, ie
most frequently or about a third of what was spoken pastors source of passage of Luke and Matthew. The
rest, quite often (18 percent) comes from the passage of Acts and Yahya, followed disclosures other
passages, less often (25 percent), namely Rome, the Psalms, Timothy, 1 Corinthians and Proverbs.
Type sermon presented by the priests, most often (38 percent) types of expository, namely
"sermon that its main content is the exposition of the Bible" (Broadus, 1979: 58; in Sutanto 2007: 1970.
Pastor also quite often (33 percent) presents sermon types of topical ie "sermon that gets the division
sermon on the topic or subject (Broadus, 1979: 55; in Sutanto, 2007: 197) and the message type of textual
(25 percent), namely," sermon that gets distribution of the content from one part of the Bible, while the
type of thematic rarely served.
With regard to the theme, which is reflected in substance, most (40 percent) focused on raising
awareness and strengthening of faith, followed by orientation quite a lot about the cultivation of moral
character (29 percent) and stress on social behavior (29 per cent). With regard to the strengthening of
faith in the sermon pastor footage BP as follows:
, , , even though he had a difficult life. , , people who have reasonably good faith in his life, he
knew exactly who his God, he knows exactly the action of his life, he knew his sins to God. God
will not let him continue to suffer and continue to experience problems. Whose faith was strong in
the Lord even though the situation left to right, front to back, broke ganjing. , , he still rejoice in
the Lord because he knows God's help.
Furthermore, with regard to moral development, expressing the core moral values of love, says
pastor (BP), "love it necessary sacrifice." In another part (BP) describes the meaning of love:
Do presumably loyal love and leave you. Kalungkanlah it [love] on your neck, write them on your
heart, love and heart, whether you would have love in your life, or to judge people who are close
to you, your girlfriend, your friend, your husband, your wife. Love is the hallmark of the trust, love
and loyal.
Associated with the challenge of behavior does not reflect Christian values, also appeared the
theme and substance of lifestyles that are considered deviant, although few (1 percent), similar to the
appearance of the substance on the issue of social relationships between people related to the tolerance
which is also very rare (1 percent) , Harmonious social behavior among fellow was described by the
pastor (DB as follows:
A perfect relationships and interactions with others. It shows how to realize with each other in a
way not boast. Love is not just words but our relationship to others. The quality of the Christian
faith is not due to hold the Bible but how relationships with others. (Slashes by the author).
Delivery of the sermon basically showed strong coherence since the election of the scriptures,
theme, content, and applications that are packaged in this type of preaching itself. Although the main
source is the scriptures, priests are always complete with illustrations to reinforce the impression of the
contents of the message once the process of signification. When the pastor of GKE Sinar Kasih KU peel
essence of the value of love, he also embellish the description with illustrations. He explained, ". , , love
in the Christian religion is not simply pronounced like are said in 1 Corinthians chapter 13, but the
highest level of love called agape, not eros love. Why is there a disabled people can do you for exceeding
the normal person? "Love a high level with regard to sacrifice, dignity, loyalty was loyalty to God."
3. Performance Pastor
Preaching is perforrma, related to how Pastor preached, and of the church, can also be seen as
related to the performance of physical and psychological reactions, the results of listening to the
performance of the pastor. Based on observations of the display to 13 people preacher, preaching styles
they can be grouped into five groups, each of which has a variation as well.
a. The first group is the minister who is considered very effective because it controls the content and art
preached by the delivery style substance, passionate and fiery, reinforced dish hit the target, which

reflects the broad insights, and innovative ways to kemajuaan the church, so the church watched with
enthusiasm as well.
b.The second group of display belonging Rev. effective, but different in style of delivery, which is more
calm, authoritative, accompanied by a systematic presentation and easily understood by the church,
characterized by vision and the ability to motivate pilgrims.
c. The third group, which display relatively less effective: (1) excited but impressed still undecided; (2)
excited but too many illustrations; (3) lackluster, with illustrations illogical; (4) excited, but the
illustration out of context, (5) excited, but the contents of the message does not fit in terms of the
perspective of homiletics and hermeneutics, and (6) excited, but weak in the preparation of materials so
many illustrations focused on her.
d.The fourth group, the display is not effective, the quiet but seem hesitant and pronunciation of words
and tone of voice is less clear. Included in this group are pastor zoom relaxed, much distraction
nyayian, so the sermon does not focus as if there is no preparation.
e. The fifth group, look very ineffectively because the sermon is not the focus, and many illustrations of
Pastor itself, interspersed with many interventions on emotional factors that congregation responded
with applause and laughter excited.
4. The Church's response to the Sermon
The response of the church, consisting of 235 men and 278 women aged between 12 to 85 years
for preaching pastor at the Sunday service, recorded in their answers to the questionnaire as much as 16
grains with response patterns Strongly agree (SS), Agree (S ), Undecided (R), Disagree (TS) and Strongly
Disagree (STS). The 16 items that reveal the effects of sermons based on the perception of pilgrims with
regard to the preparation of materials and control by the pastor, the increased knowledge about
Christianity, penggugahan emotion, readiness to practice the teachings of Christianity and society better,
the relevance of the substance with kehiduan everyday as well as the tendency of contents sermon judge
people or other parties.
Changes in attitudes and behaviors related to the teachings of Christianity will occur, including
as a result of attendance regularly attend worship every Sunday. This assumption that the data reinforced
the tendency of pilgrims majority (90.2%) were admitted to attend regularly, and the rest, including
hesitation, that few (9.8%) were declared not attend regularly.
With regard to the preparation of a sermon by the pastor is concerned, the majority of the
congregation (90.45%) thought the pastor prepare the sermon substance as possible, and only a small
portion (9.55) including those in doubt memorable pastors do not make a good preparation. Readiness
was supported also by the impression that the majority of pilgrims (87.92%) thought the pastor penguasai
conveyed material, while only slightly (12.08%) who argue no pastor or less mastered the material
conveyed.
There is no doubt that the regular presence effect causing the change. The majority of pilgrims
(73.12%) feel much more knowledge about the religion after every time I hear the sermon the pastor, the
rest (26.88%) who feel less increases. Meanwhile the church, the majority (76.61%) feel emotions very
touched when I heard the delivery of the sermon the pastor, and the rest (23.39%) felt less excited
emotions.
Associated with the changes experienced by the church, the majority (81.48%) feel more ready
to practice the teachings of true Christianity, and only a handful (18.52%) who feel unprepared. In that
regard the majority of the congregation (82.64%) feel want to be a better social life. This readiness may
be related to the relevance of the content of the sermon the congregation majority (80.86%) memorable
sermon relevant to the issues of everyday life. In this regard, also according to the majority of the church
(77.19%) sermon Pastor did not assess the other party. Hence a majority of the church (69.39%) feel
sermon Pastor give peace because it is completely in accordance with the teachings of Christianity.
6. DISCUSSION
All sermons were presented and recorded still reflects the paradigm of homiletics old, whose
structure is deductive so that all the preaching begins with the introduction of the scriptures particular, the
most frequent passage of Luke and Matthew, to introduce the theme coupled with the substance and
inserts illustration, until the conclusion of which contains a "call "to practice the word that was preached.

That is why most pastors sermons classified expository kind, such as scriptures were elaborated with
good, and loaded with doctrine.
No wonder if the model of deductive, kind of expository of the delivery of the substance of
rhetorical and informative, with a style that excited or "fiery" although, based on observations, although
not always the style is effective, because there are some pastor who actually float in the illustration less
relevant, and even out of context.
With regard to the style of deductive is also apparent substance of sermons mostly contains and
also aims to strengthen the faith and foster moral character, It is also revealed in the response of the
church, it seemed to add a science as well "refine taste", which is the main goal of a sermon ideal. The
consequence is a little portion of the substance that leads to the development of inter-relationships,
although normatively Pastor said interfaith harmony in Palangkaraya very well-maintained.
7. CONCLUSION
Based on the findings, conclusions were obtained as follows:
1. Structure of preaching in the churches in Palangkaraya refer to classical homiletics, deductive,
rhetorical and informative, so that it was clear from the introductory passage groove systematics
Akitab, themes and substance to the application.
2. Accompanying the deductive models, the more frequent types ditampiilkan sermon is expository
with an inset illustration deemed relevant by the pastor, in spite of the observations, in between
which is precisely out of context or irrelevant.
3. The pastor is basically preparing the homily as possible to look as good as possible on any event
Sunday service, something that is considered good, which he presented systematically in the
hope there is a change among pilgrims.
4. The church recognizes any changes they feel, not only increase knowledge, but also enrich the
flavor and atmosphere of mysticism quieter.
5. There were no substance or the delivery of a sermon that offended people or other people, giving
the impression of religious harmony in Palangkaraya concern to the churches.
8. SUGGESTIONS
Based on the conclusions obtained several suggestions put forward as follows:
1. As an institution, the churches in Indonesia need to reposition the role, so that the substance of
the message was not solely focused on the paradigm of the doctrine of the faith, to proclaim the
words of the Bible, but also increasingly concerned with lngkungan context of social, cultural,
economic and others as needs that are directly helped shape and influence the behavior and lives
of Christians and other people.
2. classic homiletic model that emphasizes the deductive method and informative, forward, as an
innovation, transformed into a model of inductive and is trasformatif with the consequences of
the clergy should have extensive knowledge while maintaining carefully so as not to be
separated from the context of the word of God.
