Abstract
CSR practice is currently a hot topic of conversation in businesses that are experiencing legitimacy pressure from stakeholders. Businesses are not only expected to be successful in economic performance, but also in social and environmental performance. But on the other hand, business people still ignore CSR practices as an important thing, one of the reasons is cost. This study aims to provide a Christian theological perspective on CSR practices so as to encourage Christian businessmen to be sensitive to the issues that drive the importance of CSR. In addition, this study provides suggestions for further research both qualitatively and quantitatively. This research is a qualitative, multidisciplinary, phemenological study using literature study techniques that describe the relevance of CSR from the point of view of the 10 principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) in line with Christian faith. Even though it is still global in nature, multidisciplinary research related to CSR practices has not been found so that it is a novelty in this research.
