I made this appeal to these friends, I didn’t feel like managing the philosophy of this approach to faith alone. Each of them and ‘different from the other, only poetry unites them, they all have a great sensitivity “.
Here you are, it is faith, as the title suggests, understood as spirituality, at the center of the new work by Renato Zero which he describes as “A challenge, we no longer hang out with Godwe let intellectual fatigue prevent us from reaching it. We are no longer Christians, it is easier to play three numbers in the lotto. This work is a work that I defend, which makes me proud – he continues – to talk about faith but putting it in a position to rekindle dialogue. And it is not only faith in God but also in our work, in infect others with hope, to rediscover closeness, to finally approach each other again to the will of another, not to ignore the need for contact. Knowing is the most beautiful form of being in the world “.
