Abstract
The study aimed to (1) assess the empirical views of the Christian community in Christian higher education on the causes and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic; (2) investigate the relationship between the causes and effects of the COVID-19 pandemic; and (3) determine differences in cause and effect between gender groups, academic status, and education levels. The method used was quantitative. The results show that (1) the Christian higher education community in Indonesia’s understanding of evil as the cause of COVID-19 is dominated by natural evil; (2) such perception has a positive and significant correlation with spiritual impact; and (3) males, females, lecturers, and students respond differently to the causes of the pandemic.
