Inside the Lives of Persecuted Christians in Indonesia

What happens when a country requires you to choose a religion—yet treats sharing the gospel as a threat to national unity? In the second episode of Hard to Reach: Indonesia, Steven Morales explores the tension between enforced religious identity and the nation’s foundational ideal of “unity in diversity.” In a land where spirituality is everywhere and atheism is nearly illegal, sharing your faith can feel like crossing a line you’re not meant to cross. Through personal stories and cultural insight, Steven helps us understand how believers wrestle with fear, loyalty, and boldness—and how God is moving in places, and in ways, we least expect.
