Kondisi lembaga pemasyarakatan di Indonesia masih menghadapi tantangan serius, seperti overcrowding dan tingginya angka residivisme. Program pembimbingan klien pemasyarakatan menjadi salah satu upaya strategis untuk menekan residivisme dan mendukung reintegrasi sosial, namun implementasinya dinilai belum optimal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis efektivitas, hambatan, dan praktik terbaik dalam pembimbingan klien pemasyarakatan melalui pendekatan Systematic Literature Review (SLR). Sebanyak 27 artikel ilmiah (2018–2023) dipilih dari 512 artikel awal melalui proses PRISMA dengan tahap penyaringan berbasis kerangka PICO(C) dan quality assessment. Hasil kajian menunjukkan bahwa pembimbingan berbasis keterampilan vokasional, kewajiban lapor, dan pendekatan restorative justice secara signifikan mendukung kesiapan sosial dan ekonomi klien pasca bebas. Selain itu, pelibatan keluarga dan masyarakat mempercepat reintegrasi dan menekan potensi pengulangan tindak pidana. Namun demikian, masih terdapat hambatan struktural (minimnya SDM dan infrastruktur), sosial (stigma dan diskriminasi), serta individual (motivasi rendah dan gangguan psikososial). Penelitian ini merekomendasikan penguatan kapasitas petugas Pembimbing Kemasyarakatan (PK), penerapan pendekatan Risk-Need-Responsivity (RNR), serta kolaborasi lintas sektor sebagai langkah strategis. Temuan ini diharapkan menjadi rujukan dalam pengembangan kebijakan pembimbingan klien pemasyarakatan yang lebih efektif dan berkelanjutan di Indonesia.

Cardiac arrest is a medical emergency that results in the sudden cessation of heart function, leading to more than 7 million deaths worldwide annually. In Indonesia, its prevalence is not well-documented. Ischemic heart disease is the primary cause, with other risk factors like hypertension, diabetes, obesity, and smoking also contributing. Clinical signs include loss of responsiveness, impaired breathing, and the absence of a pulse. Diagnosis is based on history, physical examination, electrocardiography, laboratory tests, and imaging to determine the underlying cause. Treatment follows the 2020 American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines, starting with basic life support (BLS), followed by Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS). ACLS includes high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), early defibrillation for shockable rhythms, epinephrine administration, and airway management through intubation. Once Return of Spontaneous Circulation (ROSC) is achieved, post-cardiac arrest care is crucial, including hemodynamic stabilization, Targeted Temperature Management (TTM), and critical care to prevent recurrence and neurological damage. A clear understanding of cardiac arrest's diagnosis, risk factors, and management is vital for reducing mortality. Adherence to AHA guidelines, especially rapid resuscitation, improves survival rates, making continuous CPR education essential for healthcare providers and the public.

Low Back Pain (LBP) is often caused by spondylolisthesis, which causes pain, limited mobility, and disability. Conservative physiotherapy is the primary option to reduce symptoms and improve function. This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of multimodal physiotherapy interventions in patients with LBP and spondylolisthesis.

This study aims to determine the opinions of two central figures in the GPKB structure, namely Ephorus and Head of Department Marturia, regarding the role and function of the choir in the liturgy. The background of this study is based on the observation that in many worship practices within the GPKB environment, the choir is often considered only an aesthetic complement, without considering the theological and liturgical meaning that should accompany it. Using a qualitative descriptive approach, data were obtained through in-depth interviews with key informants, direct observation of liturgical implementation, and a review of church documents such as the Order of Worship. Analysis was carried out carefully to explore the perceptions, expectations, and direction of church policy regarding choir ministry. The results show that both Ephorus and Head of Department Marturia view the choir as a liturgical servant on a par with servants of the word. They emphasize that the choir must be a means of proclaiming the word through theologically and contextually weighty music. However, they also acknowledge that implementation at the congregation level is not yet consistent, and guidance for the choir is still minimal in the liturgical and spiritual aspects.

This study aims to determine the exemplary leadership of Joshua and its implications for the ministry of the Elders at the GKPPD Penjaraten Resort Kuta Dame Pakpak Bharat. The background of this study departs from the fact that not all Elders demonstrate leadership character in accordance with Biblical values, especially as exemplified by Joshua as a humble, selfless, and exemplary leader of the Israelites. This study uses a qualitative method with a descriptive analysis approach, namely by analyzing and describing the character of Joshua's leadership and its relevance to the current condition of the Elders' ministry. The results of the study show four exemplary aspects of Joshua's leadership, namely: Joshua always prioritizes God, Joshua has great empathy for the Israelites, Joshua demonstrates obedience and steadfastness of faith, and Joshua implements servant leadership. Emulating Joshua's leadership is important for GKPPD Elders because Joshua demonstrates leadership that always prioritizes God in every decision. His exemplary in having empathy and concern for the congregation becomes a real example for Elders in serving the congregation with heart. Joshua's obedience and steadfast faith also encouraged the Elders to live with integrity and serve as spiritual role models. Furthermore, Joshua's selfless leadership style taught that true service is done with sincerity, not for personal gain.

This study aims to analyze the factors influencing the absence of partua ibale (male congregants who are heads of households) in attending Sunday services at GKPPD Simbruna Village, Siempat Rube District, Pakpak Bharat Regency. The research employed a qualitative method, with data collected through observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation involving several congregants, church leaders, and community members. The findings reveal that absenteeism among partua ibale is influenced by both internal and external factors. Internal factors include a lack of spiritual motivation, boredom due to lengthy and less engaging sermons, low awareness of gratitude to God, and weak personal commitment to church participation. External factors include the long distance to the church, heavy family responsibilities, economic challenges, and the absence of exemplary conduct from church elders. The study concludes that the attendance of partua ibale in Sunday services is not solely a personal matter but also reflects the church’s effectiveness in providing pastoral care, strengthening fellowship, and encouraging active male participation in worship.  

This research  examines the transfiguration of Jesus in the Synoptic Gospels, with particular emphasis on the theological distinctiveness of the Gospel of Mark. The study employs a qualitative method using a literature review approach, focusing on narrative analysis, textual comparison, and theological reflection. The analysis shows that although Matthew, Mark, and Luke present the transfiguration event, each Gospel offers distinctive features in wording, narrative structure, and theological emphasis. Mark presents the transfiguration in a concise form, portraying Jesus as the messianic Son of God and as a prophet like Moses, while highlighting the apocalyptic and symbolic aspects of this divine encounter. From Mark’s perspective, the transfiguration serves as a prefiguration of Jesus’ resurrection and a revelation of His messianic identity, which in the Greco-Roman context may be understood as apotheosis—the elevation of a human into divinity. This study affirms that the transfiguration in Mark is not only a historical event but also a theological event that encompasses eschatological and christological dimensions, as well as a reflection on divine hiddenness. In conclusion, the transfiguration is understood as a manifestation of Jesus’ hidden glory within suffering, confirming that the path to resurrection and glory must pass through the cross. This article contributes to biblical and theological studies by demonstrating how Mark articulates a unique christology, one that remains relevant for contemporary Christian faith and opens avenues for further exploration through apocalyptic theology and scriptural intertextuality.

This study aims to examine the concept of servant leadership based on Matthew 20:20-28 and its relevance to the leadership of pastors in the Pakpak Dairi Protestant Christian Church (GKPPD). The background of this research stems from the dynamics of church leadership, which still faces challenges in realizing the values of service, humility, and relational closeness as taught by Jesus Christ. This research uses a qualitative method with a literature review approach, focusing on the analysis of biblical texts and literature on biblical theology, Christian leadership, and pastoral spirituality. The results of the study show that Jesus introduced a leadership paradigm that is different from the world's pattern, namely leadership that is rooted in service, sacrifice, and love. This principle requires spiritual transformation in church leaders so that their ministry reflects the character of Christ. In the context of GKPPD, the application of servant leadership is important because of the influence of local culture, which emphasizes social structure, and the congregation's need for authentic, relational, and humble leaders. This research confirms that servant leadership is not only theological but also contextual in responding to the challenges of church life, as well as providing theoretical and practical contributions in building a leadership paradigm that is in line with the Gospel and relevant to the local church today.

This study aims to describe the implementation of the Christian mission by the Christian Veterinary Mission (CVM) in the development of agriculture/livestock and education for students of IAKN Tarutung, which also focuses on evangelism that introduces Christ to the communities and students being served. CVM, as an international Christian mission organization, carries out services that combine spiritual and practical approaches, particularly among communities that also include IAKN Tarutung students, through technical assistance, training, community empowerment, and educational support. This research uses a qualitative research method with a descriptive analysis approach, utilizing data collection techniques through in-depth interviews, observations, and documentation from CVM workers, scholarship recipients, and the communities involved in the program. The theoretical basis of this research refers to the thoughts of David J. Bosch, who asserts that mission is an attribute of God (missio Dei) and the church is merely an instrument sent to carry it out. This also underpins the view that CVM's mission is not merely evangelism, but also practical service that addresses the real needs of society. The research findings indicate that CVM implements a holistic mission that focuses not only on evangelism but also on economic empowerment through agricultural and livestock training, improving the quality of human resources through formal and non-formal education, and building social and spiritual relationships within the community. This research emphasizes that CVM's application of the Christian mission is capable of providing positive transformation that encompasses social, economic, educational, and spiritual aspects of the community. This finding is expected to serve as a reference for the development of Christian mission models in other regions with relevant and contextual approaches.

Women in traditional societies often face complex challenges, particularly within patriarchal social systems. In Batak Toba culture, women are frequently placed in subordinate positions and regarded merely as complements within the household. However, social realities reveal a different dynamic, where women are able to emerge as key actors in sustaining family economies while also preserving cultural identity. This study aims to examine the resilience of female ulos weavers in Siraja Hutagalung Village from a socio-theological perspective. The method used is qualitative with a descriptive approach. Primary data were obtained through in-depth interviews with five main informants who work as ulos weavers, while secondary data came from literature studies related to women’s resilience issues. The analysis refers to resilience theory and gender role theory. The findings show that female ulos weavers hold a central role in family life. Their weaving is not only a cultural product but also symbolizes spiritual strength, loyalty, and independence. Thus, women’s resilience is not merely a social reality but also a tangible expression of spirituality embedded in daily life.

Social changes driven by globalization and advancements in digital technology have led to a shift in the values surrounding human sexuality, from being sacred to becoming increasingly liberal and permissive. This phenomenon has triggered an identity crisis, particularly among the younger generation. This study aims to explore the meaning of self-control as presented in Sirach 5:2 and to evaluate its relevance as an ethical and theological foundation in addressing the contemporary crisis of sexuality. The method employed is a literature study using a qualitative-theological approach and textual analysis of Sacred Scripture. The findings indicate that self-control in Sirach 5:2 is not merely the suppression of desire but an expression of moral and spiritual maturity grounded in wisdom and divine grace. In light of Christian ethics, this virtue shapes responsibility, chastity, and fidelity within human relationships. Thus, self-control becomes a fundamental basis for building personal integrity and a dignified direction of life amidst a permissive cultural current.
