This research examines the application of contextual theology in the organisation of worship and the discipleship process as an effort by the church to remain relevant in the face of social and cultural dynamics and the times. Through a comprehensive literature review, this research integrates various theories and models, including translation, anthropology, praxis, synthetic, and transcendental models, to reveal how the church can translate the teachings of the Christian faith adaptively and thoroughly. Contextualised worship does not only serve as a religious ritual, but also as a means of interaction between faith and the daily life of the congregation, thus encouraging active engagement and continuous spiritual growth. In addition, structured and holistic discipleship has proven effective in shaping character, faith maturity, and spiritual leadership, through the integration of spiritual, intellectual, and emotional aspects. The research also discusses the evolution of worship practices from the Old Testament to the New Testament, as well as identifying contemporary challenges such as the shift between traditional and modern worship. The results show that the implementation of church principles that are constantly renewed is key to success in maintaining fidelity to biblical values while remaining responsive to changing times. Future research recommendations include empirical studies across different cultural backgrounds, comparative analysis of contextual worship models, evaluation of discipleship programmes, and exploration of technology integration in worship settings. The findings make a significant contribution to the development of church practices that are inclusive, adaptive, and able to build vibrant communities of faith that are responsive to today's global challenges. The research also highlights the importance of inter-generational dialogue and community strengthening through innovative ministry activities, thereby encouraging positive social transformation and supporting the sustainability of the church's mission in an era of complex globalisation. The findings affirm the commitment of the real church.

Through a literature review, this research investigates how Islamic economic theory has contributed to the rationalisation of education in Indonesia. An integrative education system that harmonises material and spiritual aspects is built on the principles of justice, balance and benefit. Therefore, Islamic economic philosophy provides a framework for moral and spiritual education that produces morally and intellectually strong people. In order to deal with globalisation and create a generation that is grounded in moral principles and thinks logically, this application is essential. To incorporate Islamic economic philosophy into national education policy and create a globally competitive education system that preserves regional spiritual and cultural values, curriculum design, teacher training and stakeholder participation are necessary.

Generation Z (born between 1997 and 2012) has been socialised in the digital age, which has informed their social interactions and cultural awareness. This study assesses the role of Generation Z in maintaining national identity in the context of globalisation, employing a Likert-scale interview methodology with university students aged 18–22 at Universitas Gadjah Mada. The results indicate that the majority of respondents exhibit a robust sense of patriotism (53.6% strongly agree) and express support for the preservation of national identity (70% agree/strongly agree). However, a small percentage of respondents express doubt (18.4%) or disagreement (5.2%). Generation Z proactively employs social media to advance local culture, address social issues, and reconcile global influences with local values. Despite the challenges posed by globalisation, they demonstrate a commitment to maintaining Indonesia's cultural heritage. This study recommends culturally relevant education tailored to the digital era to support Generation Z in preserving national identity while adapting to global developments.

The application of Pancasila as an ethical foundation in law enforcement against criminal acts of terrorism in Indonesia highlights the importance of integrating humanitarian values and human rights principles. This article analyses how Pancasila, with its focus on social justice and humane treatment, distinguishes Indonesia's approach from repressive methods commonly applied in other countries. The research method used in this article is a descriptive qualitative approach, which includes document analysis as well as in-depth interviews with various stakeholders, including law enforcement, academics, and deradicalisation practitioners. The data obtained is analysed to evaluate the effectiveness of deradicalisation programmes based on the principles of Pancasila and its impact on reducing radicalisation as well as reintegration of former terrorism perpetrators. By emphasising the need for a balanced policy between security and human rights, the Pancasila-based approach proved to be more effective and sustainable in the long run. Challenges in the consistent application of Pancasila values are faced in the context of globalisation and advances in information technology. The results show that this approach not only reduces radicalisation but also facilitates the reintegration of former terrorism perpetrators into society. In conclusion, the application of Pancasila in law enforcement contributes significantly to national stability and can be a model for other countries in countering global terrorism.
