Father Elizeu da Conceição is a Stigmatine religious priest, has a master's degree in theology with research on youth and vocation, a doctor in pastoral theology with research in the anthropology of human vocation, and is dedicated to the human formation of young people. He provides a great service to the Church as an advisor in the perspective of integral human formation. There is abundant research in the area. He currently serves as Provincial Vicar, coordinating the pastoral dimension as a provincial counselor. He is a Parish Administrator at the Santo Antônio de Pádua Parish in Praia Grande. Diocese of Santos, State of São Paulo. He currently offers us this unusual book. It is a work that, due to its title, even scares us, but with a beautiful proposal that allows human beings to turn to an essential dimension of existence which is the exercise of a life of gratuitousness, humility and simplicity.
