The impact in question is not only for the area where IKN is located but also for the surrounding area, including Tabalong Regency which is approximately 203 Km from the IKN area. As one of the main gates of the new IKN, it is important to assess the readiness of the Dayak Deah indigenous people in welcoming IKN. The study was conducted on May 6, 2022, using qualitative research through interviews and focus group discussions in Kinarum Village. The results showed that the Dayak Deah community was proud, happy, ready, and had a concrete plan. Although aware that the transfer of IKN is an opportunity as well as a challenge. For them, it is important to have a reciprocal relationship between the government and the community, so that they have a commitment to empowering the community through the village government, strengthening the capacity of traditional institutions, and developing the Cultural Village. In the end "Like it or not, must be ready; Ready or not ready must be faced". The spirit of mutual assistance and solidarity together is strength in dealing with it.

However, the representation of women in this book is often depicted as unequal and unjust, particularly regarding their status and roles. This article aimed to assess the representation of women in the Book of Proverbs and explore how they can be perceived as authoritative sources of wisdom and as alpha women. Through an exegetical study that examines theologians' views on women's representation in the Book of Proverbs, the role of women in this book will be analyzed to reclaim their status as wise individuals and strong women in both private and public realms. This understanding is crucial for creating a gender-balanced and equitable interpretation that is not influenced by patriarchal cultural norms.

They have a unique concept of "ipulaksanai," which emphasizes the interconnectedness of all human beings and a moderate and accepting view towards these topics. This serves as an inspiration for others in Indonesia facing a shift towards increasing conservatism, especially regarding sexual morals, to show more respect and respect for diverse attitudes towards love, life, sexuality, marriage, and LGBT issues. The Maanyan concept of "ipulaksanai" holds a similar view with the Indonesia philosophy of Unity in Diversity, different but one. This article is based on qualitative research conducted in 2019 with 14 informants, including traditional Dayak Maanyan figures, Kaharingan ritual leaders, Christian religious leaders, and representatives of the Maanyan community. The tribe believes in anti-violence and reconciliation and has a scapegoat mechanism in place to deal with sexual moral violations. The article shows how the tribe values democratic space regarding amorous and sexual initiatives and encourages people to ease the burden of shame.

Ada saatnya semuanya akan bercampur secara berimbang, namun ada saatnya juga salah satu akan mendominasi dan yang lain akan memudar. Berdasarkan hasil penelitian terkait fenomena keberadaan dunia roh di jemaat GKE Damit, ditemukan bahwa pengaruh tradisi dan kebudayaan Jawa masih terasa, walaupun tidak terlalu kuat lagi, karena telah bercampur dengan pemahaman Islam Banjar dan Kristen Dayak. Hal ini tidak terlepas dari realitas bahwa warga Jemaat GKE Damit sebagian besar berlatarbelakang kebudayaan Jawa, tinggal menetap di tengah masyarakat Muslim Banjar dan kebanyakan dilayani oleh pendeta yang berlatarbelakang Suku Dayak. Realitas ini menjadi sangat khas, karena walaupun tradisi Jawa, Banjar dan Dayak yang sangat besar pengaruhnya, namun ketaatan terhadap kekristenan justru yang paling mendominasi, dengan lahirnya pemahaman bahwa kekuasaan Yesus Kristu...

STT GKE is included. To prevent Covid-19 transmission from spreading widely, the government requires people to implement social distancing (also called physical distancing). All universities, including STT GKE, have been mandated by the government to close their campuses and to move learning activities online. Although the implementation of the health protocol was effective in controlling the spread of the disease, it has a negative effect on the students. Quantitative research conducted by the STT GKE research team from August to December 2000 concluded that the implementation of the protocol (social distancing, including online learning) caused the cohesion among students to get lost.

Drawing on Alfred Gell’s concept of ‘time-maps’ it argues that Guna woodcarving is a time-navigation tool that allows people to access manifold images of time through the qualities of these artefacts that acquire meaning through intersubjective relations. Ritual wooden figures give access to the deferred action of the time of origin by establishing synchronicity with human biographical time and with the time of their spirit owners. Woodcarving is therefore to be considered a material process that engages recursively with both historical knowledge and lived experience rendering them mutually meaningful, thereby bridging individual and collective time-sensitive processes.

Ketokohannya bukan terutama karena kehebatan intelektualnya, apalagi fisiknya, melainkan keteladanannya. Akan tetapi, justru unsur itulah yang relevansinya tak pernah lekang dimakan waktu. Artikel ini adalah tulisan yang menggaungkan kembali tulisan penghormatan yang pernah dibuat Andar Ismail, agar ketokohan, terutama keteladanan Fridolin Ukur dapat semakin dikenal dan menginspirasi generasi muda Gereja Kalimantan Evangelis.

Unsur “calling” atau panggilan inilah yang menjadi pembeda utama profesi pendeta dengan profesi lainnya. Tanpa keterpanggilan, bisa dipastikan yang kemudian terjadi adalah krisis kredibilitas. Pendeta juga merupakan profesi yang menuntut profesionalisme. Profesionalisme itu antara lain ditunjukkan melalui komitmen yang tinggi terhadap pekerjaan yang dihadapi. Dua hal ini yang hendak dikemukakan dalam tulisan ini sebagai keutamaan dalam etika profesi kependetaan yang sepatutnya dijunjung oleh setiap insan yang menggeluti dunia pelayanan kependetaan.

Tulisan ini disusun untuk melawan dualisme ini dan dimaksudkan untuk meletakkan kedua hal tersebut pada relasi yang seharusnya.
