About Gorga
Gorga, a carced relief, has become a cultural identity within the Toba Batak community, reflecting not only sculptural skill but also an amalgamation of elevated aestheticsand a multiplicity of life values. Gorga serves as a symbol that involves aspects that intersect sacred, religious, philosophical, and experimental aspects of human life interwined with nature. Furthermore, Gorga functions as an artistic expression, harmoniously combining diversity into a visually and conceptually pleasing form, facilitating an embodiment of life principles.

In its capacity as an intellectial platform, Gorga: Journal of Constructive Theology mirrors the representation of the carving art and endeavors to foster a diverse theological discourse through a multidiciplinary lens. This journal committed to contributing significantly to theological thought, encompassing areas such as dogmatics, systematic theology, contextual theology, and constructive theology. This journal aims to present in-depth insight that have a positive impact on the development of theology. 

Each sedition of this journal navigates a balanced framework, inviting readers to delve into theological dimensions, including doctrinal tradition, contextual, and constructive. This effort is undertaken diligently to support ongoing discourse and exploration in the theological domain. Gorga extends an invitation to researchers, theologians, or religious practitioners to share their insights, research findings, and theological perspectives, aspiring to be a substantive resource that enriches the landscape of theological thought both locally or globally.
