Abstract

This study examines the relationship and relevance between religion and the state, focusing on the contribution of religion in encouraging religious participation in the public sphere amid the lack of religious contribution in the public space. The study's main objective is to identify the main patterns in the discourse to elaborate their impact on the dynamics of the relationship between religion and state. The research findings provide an in-depth understanding of how religious communication affects people's perceptions of religious values in the context of state legal and policy frameworks. This research recognizes that a better understanding of these relationships can lead to improved policies and more effective approaches to communication between religion and state. Efforts were made to build harmony between religious values and the demands of society in the country. The implications of the research include measures to prevent religious apathy towards state life, with the hope that they will play an active role, including in electoral activities that are an integral part of participation in state life. Therefore, this study details how the role of religion can enrich and deepen the interaction between religion and state, creating the basis for the positive involvement of religious people in the democratization process.

Abstract

The post-pandemic period is full of challenges for urban churches in Surabaya. While having to survive, he must also continue interpreting his presence as an extension of the mission of the Kingdom of God. Rumah Singgah is a manifestation of GKI Pregolan Bunder's participatory-transformative diakonia mission as an ecclesiological response to the urban context in Central Surabaya. This mission is based on the redemptive work of Christ. It runs on an intersubjective path where all parties are subjects who continue to actively participate in transforming life for the sake of shared well-being. Through this qualitative phenomenological research, the researcher wants to propose an intersubjective approach as a new alternative to the urban mission in Surabaya, especially in the new post-pandemic era. Researchers conducted interviews based on Ricouer's scheme regarding life events in Rumah Singgah. The results found that intersubjective relations are relevant for building interactive and dialogical encounters between the church and surrounding communities.
