Kumusta, mga kaibigan! In this special episode of JOSh Friends, we reflect on the meaning of the Cross—not just as a symbol of suffering, but as a profound testament to love and redemption.

Joining us today is Mhir Delos Santos, Director of the Office for Mission and Identity at Ateneo de Manila University. A leadership consultant and founding president of Heroic Leadership Philippines, Mhir is passionate about guiding individuals toward authentic servant leadership.

Today, she shares her reflections on Behold the Cross, an album and songbook from Bukas Palad that brings the Passion of Christ to life through music. For Mhir, songs have the power to transform not just our understanding of faith, but our very experience of Holy Week. From traditional hymns to contemporary compositions, this collection bridges the past and present, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the mysteries of salvation.

Just like Jesus embraced His Cross, we are invited to see our own struggles through the lens of love—to walk with one another and lift each other up in times of need.
