The Bible, as the primary source of Christian faith teachings, contains various narratives and instructions that reflect different pedagogical approaches during each period. In the Old Testament, teaching methods were generally conveyed through laws, commandments, ritual symbols, and narrative stories. The media used included oral instruction, symbolic tools (such as the Ark of the Covenant and the altar), and communal experiences. Meanwhile, in the New Testament, teaching methods emphasized narrative approaches through parables, direct teaching by Jesus Christ, and the role of the Holy Spirit as the teacher within the hearts of believers. The media used in the New Testament included apostolic writings, letters, and the church community as channels for transmitting doctrine. Christian Religious Education teachers, as the front line in imparting moral and ethical values, are also required to creatively package the learning process using various methods and teaching media, ensuring that the message is easily understood by students</em><em>.</em></p> Bincar Haposan Sibarani Copyright (c) 2024 Bincar Haposan Sibarani https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0 2024-11-20 2024-11-20 4 2 11 27 Analysis of the Effectiveness of the Congregation's Economic Empowerment Program (Case Study of GMIT Imanuel SoE 2016-2021) https://ejournal.iaknkupang.ac.id/ojs/index.php/rah/article/view/409 <p><em>The church has a strategic role in empowering the congregation's economy, but often faces ongoing challenges.
