GMI ECCLESIOLOGY IN THE DIGITAL ERA

Ecclesiology in the Digital Age is the study of theology in the digital age to fulfill its mission. The church continues to engage in theology within its context as a transformation toward realizing the kingdom of God. Challenges and opportunities are maximized. The church, as part of technological development, must respond positively and utilize it optimally as an instrument in realizing the church's mission. Technology assists the church in its fellowship by building member relationships, carrying out missions, promoting programs, and so on. Therefore, human resources must be prepared early. Perhaps this will also support the accelerated revitalization of churches in this quadrennial. The purpose of this research is to enable the church (GMI) to respond positively to the presence of technology in the digital era as a manifestation of the church's mission. The church as an organism will continuously exist if it promptly utilizes technology to accelerate revitalization toward a church that is financially and theologically independent. The researcher, acting as the instrument, will conduct the research by collecting primary data through interviews with informants, direct observation, and several documents and literature as secondary data. The key data collection technique will be triangulation (combined), data analysis will be inductive/qualitative, and qualitative research results will emphasize meaning over generalization. Qualitative descriptive research aims to describe, illustrate, explain, and provide more detailed answers to the research problem.
