In the face of Indonesia’s escalating family crises amid rapid digital disruption and post-pandemic social recovery, this study proposes a novel “Dual-Ethos Synergy Model” that integrates the Fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23) with the second principle of Pancasila, namely “Just and Civilized Humanity.” The study is grounded in qualitative fieldwork conducted at Gereja Bethel Indonesia Pemulihan Keluarga Allah (GBI PKA). The findings demonstrate that the integration of Christian spiritual values and civic ethics fosters restorative character formation within families and church communities. This synergy produces practical outcomes, including stronger empathy in community service, improved interpersonal relationships, and more constructive conflict resolution practices. Using data gathered through nine in-depth interviews, participant observations, and document analysis, the study addresses existing gaps in urban church discipleship by combining spiritual transformation with social responsibility and civic engagement. The proposed model also offers implications for scalable digital-hybrid ministry programs focused on family restoration and contributes to the development of contextual theological praxis within pluralistic and multicultural societies. Limitations of the study and recommendations for future research are also discussed.

This article examines marriage law within Indonesian customary law communities and its interaction with national legal regulations. In customary societies, marriage is not merely a personal bond between a man and a woman, but a social institution involving extended families and the wider community. The study aims to describe the various forms of customary marriage, the requirements for its validity, and the procedures for legalization, including the recognition of marriages among adherents of indigenous belief systems. This research employs a normative juridical approach using statutory and conceptual analysis based on relevant legal provisions and customary practices. The findings show that customary marriage systems in Indonesia are strongly influenced by kinship structures such as patrilineal, matrilineal, and parental systems, resulting in diverse forms including bridewealth marriage, semenda marriage, independent marriage, mixed marriage, and elopement. The validity of marriage in customary law is closely connected to religious or belief-based rituals and community acknowledgment. Furthermore, developments in national law, particularly Law Number 1 of 1974 on Marriage and Constitutional Court Decision Number 97/PUU-XIV/2016, have strengthened legal recognition for followers of indigenous beliefs in marriage registration. The study concludes that customary marriage law remains relevant and continues to coexist with national law, reflecting Indonesia’s legal pluralism and cultural diversity.

Land tenure conflicts between indigenous peoples and the state remain a persistent issue in Indonesia. These conflicts arise due to differences between customary law practiced by indigenous communities and the formal legal system enforced by the state. This study aims to analyze the legal recognition of indigenous land rights within the national agrarian law framework, identify the causes of such conflicts, and formulate equitable solutions for their resolution. This research employs a normative legal method using statutory and conceptual approaches. The findings reveal that although legal recognition of indigenous land rights exists in various regulations, its implementation remains weak. Conflicts are primarily caused by overlapping regulations, economic interests, and the lack of formal recognition of customary territories. Therefore, regulatory harmonization, strengthening legal recognition of indigenous peoples, and the development of participatory and socially just dispute resolution mechanisms are essential. In conclusion, the protection of indigenous land rights can be optimized within the national agrarian legal framework through comprehensive legal reform and inclusive governance.

This study examines the contribution of Aqidah, Sharia, and Morals to the formation of Muslim character. Aqidah serves as the foundation of faith, Sharia serves as a guideline for regulating daily behavior, while Morals are the manifestation of ethical behavior reflected in social life. These three components are interrelated and together form a balanced Muslim personality. The approach and method used in this study were qualitative, using a literature review method obtained through theories of Islamic education, character formation, and moral development from various books and scientific journals. The collected data were then subjected to further analysis. The results of the study indicate that the integration of Aqidah, Sharia, and Morals plays a role in shaping individuals with strong spiritual awareness, commendable behavior, and social responsibility. Individuals who possess strong Aqidah, consistently adhere to Sharia, and practice good Morals tend to demonstrate honesty, discipline, and empathy in social life. Furthermore, character education based on Islamic values ​​can also strengthen moral awareness and create harmonious social relationships. The implications of this research suggest that both formal and non-formal educational institutions need to integrate faith values, religious practices, and morals into character education programs. This integration is expected to produce a generation with integrity, religious character, and the ability to adapt to the challenges of the modern era.

This article discusses ethical values in the philosophy of Islamic education as a response to contemporary challenges, such as moral crisis, declining character, and identity confusion. This study uses a literature review method with a philosophical and normative approach, based on Islamic teachings and the thoughts of educational figures. The results show that the philosophy of Islamic education contains important values such as monotheism, justice, responsibility, honesty, and good morals. These values are interconnected and play a significant role in shaping human personality. In addition to serving as a theoretical foundation, these values also function as guidelines in educational practice aimed at forming a complete human being (insan kamil). In the modern era, which is influenced by globalization and technological development, the application of Islamic ethical values is highly important to maintain a balance between intellectual intelligence and spiritual maturity. Therefore, the philosophy of Islamic education remains relevant as a solution for creating an education system that is not only intellectually advanced but also character-based and morally grounded. This study emphasizes that Islamic education needs to be directed toward the formation of moral awareness, the strengthening of spirituality, and the development of students’ social responsibility in daily life.  

The development of audiovisual media in the digital era provides a significant opportunity for conveying information, particularly regarding social and cultural issues. One interesting phenomenon is the acculturation of Peranakan Chinese cuisine in Indonesia, which is currently becoming less well-known among the younger generation. This study aims to represent this acculturation process through a documentary film entitled "Jejak Rasa" (Traces of Taste), using a naturalistic visual approach. The method used is a qualitative approach with field observation, interviews, and documentation strategies, integrated with a community organizing process. The research subjects included Peranakan Chinese culinary practitioners in Bandung, such as culinary business owners and museum guides. The production process consisted of three main stages: pre-production, production, and post-production. The naturalistic approach was implemented through the use of predominantly eye-level camera angles, minimal camera movement, and the use of natural lighting to produce authentic visuals. The results of the study indicate that documentary films can be an effective medium for representing cultural values, history, and culinary identity as part of the acculturation process. Thus, this work serves not only as a medium of information but also as an effort to preserve culture relevant to the development of modern media.
