This study examines the solidity of the National Mandate Party (PAN) in Merangin Regency during the 2024 Simultaneous Local Elections, which unfolded amid notable political dynamics and differing preferences between the party’s central and regional structures. Party solidity is analyzed using Firman Noor’s theory of party solidity, focusing on procedural leadership represented by two key indicators: decision-making mechanisms and the role of charismatic leadership. The study aims to understand how these indicators influence PAN Merangin’s organizational stability throughout the process of determining political support. Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected through in-depth interviews, documentation, and media reports, then analyzed using the Miles and Huberman interactive model consisting of data reduction, data display, and conclusion drawing. The findings reveal that although PAN Merangin formally implemented decision-making procedures according to the party’s statutes (AD/ART), the practice remained dominated by top-down communication from the central board (DPP), limiting regional participation in strategic political decisions. Meanwhile, the charismatic leadership of the PAN Merangin Chairman played a crucial role in maintaining organizational cohesion, reducing internal tensions, and ensuring cadre loyalty to central decisions. These results suggest the need to strengthen two-way structural communication and enhance the capacity of local party leaders to reinforce party solidity in future political contests.

Indonesia, as a pluralistic nation, faces serious challenges related to religious radicalism, often triggered by a literal understanding of sacred texts, including the Great Commission in Matthew 28:16–20. This study emphasizes the need for reinterpretation of this text, not as a mandate for Christianization, but as a call to disciple others in the spirit of love and tolerance. The research method used is qualitative with a literature review, offering novelty through a contextual reinterpretation approach, different from previous studies that tended to be textual. This approach seeks to understand the text within the social and cultural context of pluralistic Indonesia, emphasizing values such as love, respect for pluralism, and honoring religious diversity. The findings show that this reinterpretation aligns with the values of Pancasila and can contribute to preventing the seeds of radicalism while strengthening interfaith harmony. By promoting inclusivity and peace, Christian mission can be a positive force in maintaining religious harmony in Indonesia. In conclusion, the Christian mission must shift from an exclusive paradigm focused on aggressive proselytization to a theocentric paradigm that embraces pluralism and promotes interfaith tolerance, to achieve peace amid the diversity of Indonesian society.

Waist circumference is a method used to determine central obesity, which is a condition of excess fat accumulation in the abdominal area, resulting in abnormal waist circumference in women >80 cm and men >90 cm. This study aims to determine the difference in effectiveness between prone plank exercise and bicycle crunch exercise in reducing waist circumference in adolescents. The research method used a quasi-experimental pretest-posttest two-group design. The sample consisted of 24 participants, divided into Group I (prone plank exercise) and Group II (bicycle crunch exercise), with each group consisting of 12 participants. Both groups underwent exercise therapy for 4 weeks, with a frequency of 5 times per week, with an intensity of 30 seconds per set, repeated 3 times. The measurement tool used was a calibrated midline. The results showed that Group I (prone plank exercise) experienced a reduction in waist circumference of 5.75 cm, while Group II (bicycle crunch exercise) had a reduction of 7.91 cm, indicating that both exercise therapies have an effect on waist circumference reduction. The difference test between groups resulted in p>0.05 (p=0.747), meaning there is no significant difference between the two exercise types.

This article discusses the importance of developing a Christian Religious Education (PAK) model based on Christian theology and implemented through the active role of the church in carrying out the Great Commission. True Christian education does not only convey doctrinal information, but also forms the character, spirituality, and calling of the people based on the word of God. The church is positioned as a learning community and the main implementer of the contextual, transformative, and biblical theology-rooted faith education process. Through a qualitative-descriptive approach and literature study, this paper emphasizes that theological foundations, such as God as the source of education, the Bible as the basis of teaching, Christ as the focus, and the church as the implementer, are inseparable elements of PAK. Christian Religious Education based on theology provides clear direction in designing content, methods, and learning objectives that are in line with God's will. Thus, this education model is expected to be able to answer the challenges of the times, strengthen the faith of the congregation, and produce strong and relevant followers of Christ in society.

In “Harmony of Philosophy, Religion, and Ecology: Understanding the Message of Scripture as the Church's Mission in Protecting Nature according to Mark 16:15,” the importance of the relationship between religious doctrine, philosophical ideas, and environmental conservation initiatives is highlighted. Thus, Mark 16:15, which commands us to preach the Gospel to all creatures, could be interpreted as an appeal to protect God's creation, including the environment. In light of the current ecological catastrophe, philosophy offers an ethical framework that allows us to consider our obligations to nature. Meanwhile, religion—especially the teachings contained in the Holy Bible—emphasizes the spiritual call to care for creation. As an important institution in society, the Church's goals must include environmental management. The Church can inspire its members to apply ecological ideals to everyday life by upholding this duty. The Church can play a leading role in nature protection by taking concrete steps and educating the public about the value of ecology in a faith-filled life. Given the urgent need to overcome current environmental problems, harmony between philosophy, religion and ecology not only deepens
