This study aims to explore in depth how the dynamics of religiosity and workplace spirituality contribute to shaping the job satisfaction of lecturers at IAKN Toraja. It employs a qualitative approach through field research, collecting data through observation, interviews, and documentation. The data were then analyzed using a descriptive analysis model comprising data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion drawing. The findings indicate that lecturers' job satisfaction at IAKN Toraja is influenced by five factors: inadequate working conditions and facilities, compensation that is often delayed and lacks transparency, abrupt changes in promotion regulations, weak transparency in supervision, and a suboptimal performance-based reward system. Religiosity and workplace spirituality serve as the dominant interpretive foundations that shape the entire work experience. Work is understood as a form of service, compensation is appreciated within a providential framework, and the work community is experienced as a fellowship of faith. This study differs from previous research in that it seeks to examine the dynamics of religiosity and workplace spirituality in shaping lecturers' job satisfaction, which underpins the three pillars of higher education (Tridharma Perguruan Tinggi) namely teaching, research, and community service.
