Sinergi Divine Healing dan Spiritualitas Kristen sebagai Model Pastoral Gereja dalam Menghadapi Radikalisme Digital dan Krisis Moral Global
Abstract
Digital transformation eases information access but fosters digital radicalism and moral erosion. This global ethical crisis weakens Christian faith resilience. This qualitative, literature-based study addresses the absence of an integrative theological model unifying divine healing and Christian spirituality as a coherent pastoral response to digital radicalism. Through critical descriptive analysis of Mark chapter 1 verses 40 to 45 and Mark's chapter 5 verses 25 to 34, it demonstrates that New Testament healing restores social dignity and communal membership, not just physical health. This study develops a three-dimensional pastoral model: kerygma (proclamation), therapeia (healing), and koinonia (fellowship). Findings show that Christian spirituality acts as a moral fortress against extreme digital narratives. Meanwhile, divine healing provides a pastoral mechanism to address radicalism-induced wounds holistically. The novelty lies in offering a replicable, practical theological model for churches to respond contextually to digital disruption.
Abstrak
Transformasi digital mempermudah akses terhadap informasi sekaligus menyuburkan radikalisme digital dan erosi moral. Krisis nilai etis global ini memperlemah ketahanan iman Kristen. Penelitian kualitatif berbasis studi pustaka ini menjawab belum adanya model teologis integratif yang menyatukan divine healing dan spiritualitas Kristen sebagai respons pastoral yang koheren terhadap radikalisme digital. Melalui analisis deskriptif kritis terhadap Markus bab 1 ayat 40 sampai 45 dan Markus bab 5 ayat 25 sampai 34, ditemukan bahwa penyembuhan dalam Perjanjian Baru memulihkan martabat sosial serta keanggotaan komunal, bukan sekadar aspek fisik. Penelitian ini menyusun model pastoral tiga dimensi: kerygma (pemberitaan), therapeia (penyembuhan), dan koinonia (persekutuan). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa spiritualitas Kristen berfungsi sebagai benteng moral terhadap narasi ekstrem di ruang digital. Sementara itu, divine healing menyediakan mekanisme pastoral untuk menangani luka akibat radikalisme secara holistik. Kebaruan penelitian ini terletak pada tawaran model teologis praktis yang dapat direplikasi oleh gereja dalam merespons disrupsi digital secara kontekstual.
