Aggregate is the main component of road pavement structure, namely 90-95% of the weight of the pavement. Such a large proportion means that the quality of the aggregate used will greatly determine the overall performance of the pavement. The availability of quality aggregate is absolutely necessary to ensure the sustainability of development in the road construction sector. One area that has aggregate potential that has not been utilized optimally is Kandang Mbelang Village, Lawe Bulan. The aim of this research is to determine the characteristics of the Marshall, UCS, ITS test values ​​and the permeability of asphalt mixtures using the excavated material of Kandang Mbelang, Lawe Bulan as aggregate. This research uses experimental methods carried out in the laboratory with variations in asphalt content of 4.5%, 5%, 5.5% and 6% for the Marshall test and obtains Optimum Asphalt Content (KAO). For ITS, UCS and permeability testing, Optimum Asphalt Content was used with three samples each. Hypothesis testing for data comparison uses the T test method. The use of Kandang Mbelang aggregate in the AC-WC spec IV mixture produces a stability value of 711.5 kg, a flow value of 3.48 mm, a porosity value of 16.077%, a density value of 2.016 gr/ cm3 and Marshall Quotient value 215.823 kg/mm ​​at Optimum Asphalt Content of 5.3%. The average ITS value is 319.024 KPa, the average UCS value is 6,982.237 KPa, while the average permeability coefficient value is 7.14x10-4 cm/s. Through the T test statistical method, it is known that the use of the Kandang Mbelang aggregate for the AC-WC spec IV mixture does not cause changes in the stability, flow, ITS and UCS values. Real changes only occur for density values, porosity values ​​and permeability coefficients.

Final-year university students occupy a fragile transitional space between academic completion and an uncertain future. This article examines future anxiety among final-year students as a multidimensional phenomenon encompassing academic pressure, employability uncertainty, identity formation, family expectations, spiritual struggle, and consequential life decisions under limited control. It employs a constructive conceptual literature review, synthesizing scholarship on university student mental health, career anxiety, career construction and career self-management, religious coping, and contemporary pastoral care. The analysis develops a pastoral accompaniment framework that neither reduces anxiety to a private psychological symptom nor replaces professional mental health or career services. Three constructive findings are proposed: first, future anxiety should be understood as a vocational-existential crisis intensified by final-year transitions; second, pastoral accompaniment contributes through relational presence, meaning-making, spiritual discernment, and referral-aware care; and third, an integrated model should combine stabilization, vocational reframing, and agency-building within accountable communities. The article concludes that pastoral accompaniment is most responsible when it is theologically grounded, psychologically informed, ethically bounded, and collaborative. Its main contribution is a practical-conceptual framework for campus ministries, theological schools, and Christian higher education institutions seeking to accompany final-year students without fabricating empirical claims or spiritualizing distress.

This study examines the semantic dimensions in Buddhist religious texts, focusing on linguistic meaning, symbolism, and interpretation. Applying theoretical frameworks of semantics (lexical semantics, semiotics) and qualitative hermeneutical methodology, this research aims to understand how Buddhist teachings are constructed in texts and interpreted by Buddhist communities. The findings indicate that key texts such as the Sutta Pitaka and Mahāyāna Sūtras contain multiple layers of meaning that depend on cultural context, ritual practices, and teacher interpretations. This research supports the development of interdisciplinary understanding between linguistics, religious studies, and Buddhist practice. The study reveals that meaning in Buddhist texts operates on three distinct levels: literal (vācika), contextual (attha), and spiritual (paramārtha), each requiring different hermeneutical approaches. Symbols such as the lotus and the Dharma wheel function not merely as metaphorical ornaments but as carriers of profound cosmological and soteriological significance

This article addresses the pastoral problem of congregants who experience persistent feelings of worthlessness, a condition that often appears at the intersection of shame, fragile self-worth, social isolation, and distorted religious interpretation. The objective is to construct a Christian pastoral counseling framework that is biblically grounded, psychologically informed, and ecclesially accountable. This study uses a qualitative constructive literature design through critical synthesis of recent journal articles and classical pastoral counseling. The analysis identifies four main findings. First, worthlessness should not be reduced to moral weakness or lack of faith because it involves psychological, relational, and spiritual dynamics. Second, churches may either intensify shame through stigma and spiritual reductionism or become restorative communities through hospitality, lament, and safe accompaniment. Third, pastoral counseling requires a movement from empathic assessment, validation, and narrative clarification toward theological reframing of identity in Christ. Fourth, responsible pastoral care includes collaboration with mental health professionals when risk, trauma, or clinical symptoms exceed pastoral competence. The implication is a constructive model in which pastoral counseling helps congregants reinterpret self-worth through grace, embodied community, and disciplined referral rather than through advice-giving or doctrinal correction alone.

This article constructs a Christian pastoral counseling framework for congregants who experience trauma caused by social rejection. Social rejection within family, peer, workplace, or church communities may wound identity, belonging, agency, and spiritual meaning; however, pastoral responses often remain either overly moralistic or merely consolatory. The objective of this study is to formulate a trauma-informed and theologically accountable model of pastoral counseling that can be used by local church ministers without replacing professional mental health care. This study uses a qualitative constructive literature review by synthesizing recent studies on trauma-informed care, social exclusion, religious coping, chaplaincy, and pastoral theology published before 2024. The analysis identifies five core findings: trauma from social rejection is primarily relational; pastoral care must begin with safety, consent, and validation; theological interpretation should resist victim-blaming; congregational belonging is part of recovery; and referral ethics are necessary when symptoms exceed pastoral competence. The proposed model integrates safe presence, narrative listening, theological reconstruction, communal restoration, and clinical referral. The implication is that churches need a pastoral counseling culture that protects wounded congregants from retraumatization while sustaining spiritual hope, relational repair, and responsible interdisciplinary collaboration.

Domestic violence remains a critical pastoral problem because survivors in church communities often face not only physical, psychological, sexual, and economic harm, but also spiritual narratives that may either sustain recovery or silence disclosure. This constructive qualitative study aims to formulate a Christian pastoral counseling model for survivors of domestic violence in church settings. The study applies a library-based practical-theological design by critically synthesizing peer-reviewed literature on intimate partner violence, faith-based responses, trauma- and violence-informed care, pastoral theology, Indonesian legal norms, and church-related studies. The findings show that pastoral counseling for survivors must be structured around safety rather than immediate marital reconciliation; interpret Scripture through dignity, justice, and protection of the vulnerable; recognize religious coercive control as a form of harm; integrate emotional stabilization with spiritual care; and build referral networks with psychological, legal, medical, and social services. The article proposes an integrated PASTORAL-SAFE model that combines risk assessment, survivor affirmation, trauma stabilization, theological reframing, social support, professional referral, perpetrator accountability, and long-term pastoral accompaniment. The implication is that churches need written protocols, trained pastoral teams, confidentiality standards, and collaborative safeguarding systems to prevent pastoral responses from unintentionally reproducing violence.

Constitutional amendments in Muslim-majority countries, including Indonesia, often face political challenges, constitutional conflicts, and harmonisation between sharia principles and democratic values and civil liberties. This process reflects the complex socio-political dynamics of achieving a balance between tradition and modernity. This research aims to understand these challenges from an Islamic perspective, identify factors that influenced the amendment process, and explore the integration of Islamic principles with democratic values within a reformist constitutional framework. Using a qualitative approach and analysing relevant documents and literature studies, as well as conducting interviews with legal, political and religious experts, this research highlights the political tensions and conflicts related to human rights, governance structures, minority rights and religion. Despite challenges, there are opportunities to mediate sharia principles with democracy through constructive dialogue and compromise. The research also offers strategies to support constitutional reforms that take into account public welfare and democratic principles. Keywords:Constitution, Contextualization, Islam.

Background: Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC) is an innovative construction material that combines glass fiber with concrete, providing high strength and durability. However, the influence of GRC mixture composition on flexural strength values has not been studied in depth. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the effect of GRC mixture composition variables, such as the ratio between glass fiber and concrete binder, on flexural strength. It is hoped that the results of this research can provide deeper insight into the use of GRC in construction and help develop more efficient and durable construction materials. Results: From the results of the discussion regarding the effect of differences in fiberglass composition on flexural strength, it was found that the addition of 2% fiber resulted in an average flexural strength of 23.01 kgf/cm2, with an increase of up to 49.77 kgf/cm2 at 1% fiberglass. However, with a fiber composition of 0.8%, the highest flexural strength was obtained at 56.84 kgf/cm2. The addition of fibers that exceed the maximum limit can reduce the density of GRC concrete so that its ability to distribute bending strength forces is reduced. Meanwhile, the effect of fly ash substitution on flexural strength shows that replacing some of the cement with fly ash by 20% can increase the flexural strength value of GRC, because the silica and alumina compounds in fly ash can speed up the hydration process. However, of the five specimens tested, none met the SNI 8299:2017 standard which requires a minimum average flexural strength of 100 kgf/cm2

Every development activity carried out will definitely have an impact on the environment, both positive and negative impacts. The construction of the Lamongan northern ring road is also inseparable from the environmental impacts it causes. Therefore, it is very important to pay attention to how to carry out this development in a way that produces maximum benefits for society while causing minimal negative impacts on the environment. One way to reduce the negative impact of development on the environment is to carry out an Environmental Impact Analysis (AMDAL). AMDAL is a formal and mandatory instrument for every development activity that may have a major impact on the environment. By carrying out an AMDAL, we can analyze the potential environmental impacts that will be caused by a development project and plan ways to reduce these impacts.This research aims to find out the parts of the AMDAL study and AMDAL problems in the Lamongan North Ring Road Construction and provide solutions or ways to overcome these problems. The research results show that activities observed from the aspect of environmental suitability are referred to as environmentally sound. In this case, there is a need for a comprehensive assessment of the potential environmental impacts that may arise as a result of the construction of the Lamongan northern ring road.In carrying out AMDAL, we need to pay attention to various aspects such as the impact on flora and fauna, air and water pollution, land use, and so on. By planning appropriate and sustainable management, we can minimize negative impacts on the environment and maximize the benefits that can be obtained from this development.
