- Title
Resistir a los violentos y tejer sociedad desde la fe: El Garzal (Colombia).
- Authors
ELVIS PLATA, WILLIAM; CÁCERES MATEUS, SERGIO
- Abstract
This article rescues the his torical memory of a Christian evangelical community that, because of its faith, decides to organize and to resist peacefully the attacks of violence. Considering this experience, the authors think about the role that churches and religious institutions have and could have to overcome the armed conflict, to create processes of development and to develop a culture of peace and reconciliation.
