Keywords:
Modern Theology, Church GrowthAbstract
Modern theology provides a new approach to understanding faith and church ministry. In Indonesia, modern theology is a crucial tool for facing the challenges of the times, such as globalization, pluralism, and technological development. This article examines how modern theology contributes to church growth in Indonesia using a relevant, contextual approach. The data used in this study include academic literature, interviews, and case analysis. The church leaders interviewed were from GYKT, GPI, GBI, GKII, and GPIA. The results indicate that the integration of modern theology into church ministry results in increased relevance, congregational participation, and social influence.
