The aim of this study was to evaluate the growth and impact of Christianity as a missionary religion on the Islamic da'wah in Indonesia, where the Muslim community has a long history of resistance to colonialization, which was initiated by the Christian community. Furthermore, a qualitative descriptive method was used with data predominantly obtained through the observation of facts in the Christianization field. In addition, the effects of Christianity on the Islamic da'wah were analyzed through a review of documentation and reference studies. The results showed that some of the methods used by Christians in spreading their religion and movements were occupation, politics, Western citizens, poverty, diseases, consciousness weakness, self-preparation, Muslims' indulgence, financial guarantees, Laziness in teachings, preparing the missionaries, and brainwashing. By utilizing these methods, Christians often proclaimed their denomination and congregation, ultimately leading to various community conflicts. The findings suggest the need for a healthy and productive dialogue from a new perspective to resolve conflicts, promote harmony, and create a fairer, peaceful, and innovative civilization that views religion through spiritual perspectives.

“…Thus, an evangelist is sent to preach or spread the good news (MacArthur and MacArthur, 2011). Evangelism is a form of reciprocation by evangelists to appreciate a spiritual relationship with God (Andrews, 2009) that is based on love. Evangelists are motivated to share goods news to express their love for God and their spiritual neighbour (Park, 2002).…”

This study sought to extend empirical and theoretical understanding of university brand evangelism as an outcome of the student psychological contract in the higher education sector. The conceptual model was developed and tested using structural equation modeling on 451 students at two colleges of higher education in Tanzania. The findings indicate that the student psychological contract influences university brand love en route to university brand evangelism. Thus, university operations should be well-defined by a social contract that stipulates the obligations of both students and staff. For students to engage in university brand evangelism, higher education institutions must fulfill their expectations as stipulated in the contract. More specifically, their staff should fulfill their obligations emanating from promises made to students. This calls for specific standard procedures to fulfill expectations and thus optimize university brand evangelism. Key words: Higher education sector, higher education institutions, university, branding strategies, student psychological contract, university brand evangelism

Knowledge of anthropology enables us to look with greater freedom at the problems confronting our civilisation (Franz Uri Boas 1 1928)1 Franz Uri Boas was a German-American anthropologist and a pioneer of modern anthropology who is now considered as the "Father of American Anthropology". Though Boas became an anthropologist by occupation after his expedition to the Eskimo country, he was a physicist by training as he graduated with a PhD in physics from the University of Kiel (German) in 1881. Boas was one of the most prominent opponents of the then popular ideologies of scientific racism, the idea that race is a biological concept and that human behaviour is best understood through the typology of biological characteristics. In a series of ground studies of skeletal anatomy he showed that cranial shape and size was highly malleable depending on environmental factors such as health and nutrition, in contrast to the claims by racial anthropologists of the day that held head shape to be a stable racial trait. Boas also worked to demonstrate that differences in human behaviour are not primarily determined by innate biological dispositions, but are largely a result of cultural differences acquired through social learning.
