While many religious organizations have achieved a high level of ecological "awareness," there remains a persistent "Value-Action Gap" in church governance. This paper utilizes the Haryono 2³ Theological-Configurational Model as a predictive tool to move Beyond Awareness toward verifiable Environmental Stewardship. By integrating Knowledge (X1), Attitude (X2), and Practice (X3) into a binary configurational engine, this study identifies eight organizational typologies. Utilizing Binary Logistic Regression, the model demonstrates that while theological literacy and moral concern provide the "Potential Energy," technical Operational Sustainability (X3) is the critical "Kinetic Factor" that predicts global ecological effectiveness (Y). The paper provides full operationalization, measurement design and testable propositions for empirical application. It contributes to interdisciplinary scholarship by bridging behavioral science, ecological theology, and sustainability governance, offering a scalable framework for church-based environmental transformation. Highlights: • Novelty: Introduces the Haryono 2³ Model to conceptualize environmental stewardship beyond linear awareness-based assumptions. • Integration: Integrates the Knowledge-Attitude-Practice (KAP) framework with theological framing to bridge behavioral science and ecological theology. • Analysis: Provides a fully operationalized and empirically testable framework using binary logistic regression to predict institutional ecological impact in churches. • Utility: Provides a 8-profile matrix for evidence-based organizational policy and SOP development. • Scalability: Offers a 15-item diagnostic instrument suitable for diverse organizational settings.
