Peran komunitas keagamaan dalam pembentukan perilaku religious generasi z
Keywords:
Religious communities, generation z, the digital age, religious literacy, religious behaviorAbstract
Religious communities play a significant role in helping Generation Z understand and apply religious values amid the rapid development of technology and social media. Today, religious communities are not only present through in-person activities such as religious study sessions, religious gatherings, or religious organizations, but are also expanding into various digital spaces that are more closely aligned with the lives of Generation Z. These communities can serve as a place for Generation Z to gain more focused religious knowledge while helping them filter out religious information on social media that may not necessarily be accurate. Through the use of Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, podcasts, and live discussion sessions, religious communities can convey religious values in ways that are more engaging and aligned with the character of the younger generation. However, fostering religious behavior requires more than just digital content; it must be supported by real-world experiences through social activities, humanitarian efforts, environmental stewardship, and interactions with people from diverse backgrounds. Such engagement ensures that religious values go beyond mere knowledge and personal worship; they are manifested in caring attitudes, empathy, tolerance, cooperation, and responsibility toward others.
