ELVIS PLATA, William  e  CACERES MATEUS, Sergio. To Resist to the Violent Forces and to Create Social Fabric from Faith: El Garzal (Colombia). Theol. Xave. [online]. 2015, vol.65, n.180, pp.497-525. ISSN 0120-3649.  https://doi.org/10.11l44/javeriana.tx65-180.rvts.

This article rescues the historical 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.

Palavras-chave : Protestantism; Pentecostalism; armed conflict; paramilitary forces; resistance to oppression.
