Kumusta, mga kaibigan! In this eye-opening episode of JOSh Friends, we’re joined by Areson Cuevas, a fintech professional whose journey spans from Marikina to UP, Spain, and the global world of tech innovation. But today, Areson takes us beyond algorithms and borderless transactions, sharing a personal reflection inspired by Fr. Daniel Patrick Huang SJ’s book, Serving the Joy of the Gospel.

Through Fr. Danny’s homily on “Wisdom and Foolishness,” Areson invites us to reimagine what it truly means to be wise—not just smart. From lessons passed down by his grandfather, to the quiet challenge of choosing people over profit, this reflection leads us to the heart of discernment, integrity, and grace. For anyone navigating a fast-paced world, this episode is a powerful reminder that true intelligence isn't just about solutions—it’s about service, humility, and living with reverence.

📚 Serving the Joy of the Gospel is a collection of homilies and insights drawn from Fr. Danny’s 36 years of Jesuit ministry—as priest, teacher, and companion in faith. Whether you're working in tech, teaching in classrooms, or leading communities, this book will meet you where you are and guide you toward a deeper kind of wisdom—one grounded in love and service.

Let us journey together in hope. 📖✨ Visit jescom.ph/josh to read more about this inspiring book. Let Fr. Danny’s words help you rediscover what truly matters in life, work, and faith..
