Kumusta, mga kaibigan! In this episode of JOSh Friends, Ailee Canlas-Zapata, a mom and Creative Writing graduate student, takes us on a journey through her 2025 spiritual reading list. Juggling thesis deadlines and family life, Ailee shares how three JesCom books – But Only Say the Word by Father Arnel Aquino, Balik Lantaw by Father Mateo Sanchez, and Catholic Comedy Libruh by Romar Chuca – became her companions in finding faith amidst chaos.

Discover how:

• Father Arnel's reflections bring peace during life’s messiest moments.
• Father Mateo’s diary entries inspire living for a higher purpose.
• Romar Chuca’s humour reminds us to find joy in our faith journey.

Whether you’re a busy parent, a student, or someone seeking spiritual growth, these books offer wisdom, laughter, and inspiration for your journey.
