Abstract

Religious conflict is a key element in the ongoing turmoil in Indonesia. Reconciliation calls for authentic yet open religious identities. This essay introduces examples of Christian literature by socially engaged activists and politically aware mystics. These authors are creating a new language in which to re-picture the Jesus of the Gospels as authentically Asian at the heartbeat of popular Indonesian culture.
