The ecumenical movement seeks to unite churches divided in denomination, doctrine, and practice, while fighting for peace and social justice. This article reviews the history, theological foundations, and application of ecumenism in the church's mission. This movement was born from the need for Christian unity, realized in Indonesia through the formation of the Fellowship of Churches in Indonesia (PGI) to strengthen cross-denominational fellowship. Its theological foundation is poured into Jesus' prayer for unity and the Great Commission. In addition to unity, ecumenism supports social justice as a manifestation of Christ's love. The main challenges include doctrinal differences, leader-congregation disputes, cultural differences, and political pressure. Inclusive ecumenical education and congregational participation are the keys to realizing church unity in facing pluralism and social challenges.

The theme of God's provision in limitations is highly relevant to theology students, who often face various challenges in their academic and spiritual journeys. The story in 2 Kings 4:42-44, where the prophet Elisha distributes twenty barley loaves to a hundred people, provides a powerful illustration of how God can turn limitations into blessings. Theology students often feel inexperienced and limited in resources to serve the community, but Elisha's example teaches that intention and trust in God are far more important than the amount of resources one has. Limitations can also trigger a crisis of faith, especially when the demands of academics and daily life increase. Therefore, it is important for students to realize that limitations are not obstacles to God, but opportunities to experience His love and power. This paper aims to explore how God's provision in limitations can be the basis for learning faith that shapes the character and ministry of theology students. By understanding this concept, it is hoped that students can serve sincerely and trust in God in every aspect of their lives.
