Peran kitab keagamaan dalam dialog lintas iman khususnya bagi generasi muda Kristen dan Islam, terwujud melalui Scriptural Reasoning (SR), yang menjadi kegiatan rutin Young Interfaith Peacemaker Community (YIPC) Indonesia. SR mampu menjadi ruang interaksi lintas iman dengan menjadikan kitab keagamaan (Alkitab dan Al-Qur’an) sebagai landasan yang juga didukung dengan nilai-nilai dasar YIPC, 12 Nilai Perdamaian, serta dokumen A Common Word (ACW). Hasil dari kajian ini menunjukkan bahwa, pertama, Kitab keagamaan mampu melegitimasi dialog. Kedua, Kitab keagamaan mampu membangun identitas bersama diantara generasi muda Kristen dan Islam.
