| Summary: | This article explores the possibility for Christians to discover hospitality and learn reconciliation through Halal bi-halal, a uniquely Indonesian way of observing the Islamic religious festival of ʿId al-Fitri. The exploration will be done in two ways: first, through a broad sacramental lens that will, second, lead to a more particular renewal perspective. The thrust of this presentation is to contend that Christians can experience, and therefore discover, a Christian understanding of hospitality from a non-Christian feast. |
