In this fun and honest episode, recorded live from Valore Bar & Grill, the Locas dive into a real question many believers wrestle with: Are you content… or just complacent?

While celebrating the near completion of the Locas Studio, Jessica and Alexa talk about how God gives supernatural strength to fulfill every assignment He calls you to — and how often we already have everything we need to walk in His will.

They unpack the difference:

• Contentment is gratitude and trust in God
• Complacency is getting stuck and settling

The conversation gets real as they discuss complacency in marriages, ministry, personal growth, and everyday life. Sometimes we ask God for more while struggling to steward what we already have.

Through laughter, memories (including Alexa’s green Ford Escort days), and personal testimonies of leading through pain, this episode reminds us:

• Gratitude isn’t based on circumstances
• Even rock bottom can become a launching point
• Endurance is part of faith
• God prepares you through the hard seasons
• Sometimes you discover your strength only when you’re tested

Jessica shares insights from preaching through pain, while Alexa opens up about leading while hurting and how God expanded her capacity during difficult moments.

This episode will encourage you to:

• Appreciate the small blessings
• Stay grateful in chaotic seasons
• Trust God while you wait
• Keep moving forward without losing peace

Because contentment keeps your heart right — but complacency keeps you stuck.

And one year from now? You just might be saying,
“Look what God did.”

Many of us grew up with ideas about love shaped by culture, movies, family dynamics, and past relationships. We were taught that love meant butterflies, sacrifice without boundaries, staying no matter what, or tolerating dysfunction in the name of loyalty. But what if much of what we called “love” was never biblical to begin with?

In this LIVE episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we unpack the difference between cultural love and Christ-centered love. Through Scripture, we explore what real, healthy love actually looks like—love that is rooted in truth, honor, accountability, freedom, and peace. We talk about how God’s Word corrects our misconceptions and invites us into relationships that reflect His character, not the world’s version of romance or attachment.

If you’ve ever confused control for protection, chemistry for compatibility, or emotional intensity for spiritual depth, this conversation is for you.

Join the Locas as we challenge old narratives and redefine love according to God’s design.

Are you ignoring red flags in your relationships? 🚩

On this episode of Las Locas we explore warning signs in all types of relationships — dating, friendships, family, church, leadership, and more — through the lens of Scripture.

One of the biggest red flags in any relationship is a lack of honor and respect. This shows up when your thoughts are dismissed, your boundaries are ignored, or your voice is minimized. Honor doesn’t require agreement, but it does require recognizing the value God placed on you. When respect is missing, love cannot function the way Scripture intends.

Another serious warning sign is manipulation and control. This often hides behind concern, spirituality, or “wanting what’s best for you,” but it uses guilt, fear, or pressure to get compliance. God leads through truth and freedom, not coercion. Healthy relationships allow room for choice, growth, and wise counsel.

A third red flag is chronic dishonesty—patterns of lying, half-truths, omissions, or rewriting stories when confronted. Trust cannot exist without truth. Where honesty is absent, stability and safety disappear.

In this episode, we talk about why these red flags are often ignored and why discernment and boundaries are not unloving, but necessary. God does not call us to tolerate what damages our hearts, our faith, or our peace.

Learn how to discern healthy connections, set godly boundaries, and build relationships that reflect Christ’s love, truth, and peace.

In this Mukbang episode of Las Locas Chronicles, Jessica and Alexa are eating smackilicious food at El Rey de Sabor in Irving, TX while laughing their way down memory lane. The question on the table: What’s something you were embarrassed about as a kid that doesn’t bother you at all as an adult?

From remembering pastelillo sales in the back of the church to discovering the magic of the George Foreman grill, this episode is packed with humor, nostalgia, and perspective. The Locas talk about the things we swore we’d never do as kids—using coupons, caring about electricity bills, turning off lights—and how adulthood completely changes our view.

Alexa shares her legendary birthday routine, complete with free Starbucks, prime rib at the Big Texan, and Nothing Bundt Cakes, proving that grown confidence hits different. They reflect on how as children we often didn’t understand sacrifice, stewardship, or gratitude—but as adults, those lessons finally make sense.

The conversation turns heartfelt as Alexa reflects on realizing her parents were never “not enough,” but actually sacrificed everything to give their family a good life. She shares how her parents’ work ethic shaped her and how her mom’s decision to tithe marked a turning point toward financial freedom and stability.

Jessica opens up about the very thing she once complained about—her hair—which is now a signature part of who she is, her culture, and her identity.

This episode is a reminder to:

• Be grateful for what you have
• Be a good steward of what’s in your hands now
• Stay ready so you don’t have to get ready
• Walk in full obedience, not partial
• Honor your parents while you still can

If there’s something you were embarrassed about as a kid, this episode challenges you to revisit it with adult eyes—and maybe even say thank you or ask forgiveness where it’s due.

Growing up changes everything—and that’s not something to be embarrassed about.

You asked, and we didn’t hold back.

In this unfiltered episode, the Locas answer two of the most honest questions we hear all the time: Why should we go to church? and Why is reading the Word so important?

We talk about church beyond the building — community, accountability, healing, and growth — and why following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey. We also get real about Scripture: why reading the Bible isn’t about checking a box, but about transformation, truth, and learning to hear God’s voice in a noisy world.

No religious fluff. No guilt trips. Just real conversation, biblical truth, and practical encouragement for your faith walk.

Whether you’ve been hurt by church, feel disconnected from the Word, or you’re simply asking honest questions — this episode is for you.

Have you ever prayed with everything in you—only to be met with silence?

In this episode, we talk honestly about one of the most difficult and confusing seasons of faith: when God feels quiet. When prayers seem unanswered. When direction feels unclear. When heaven feels distant.

Together, we explore what Scripture shows us about God’s silence—not as abandonment, punishment, or rejection, but often as formation, trust-building, and deep spiritual work. From Job’s unanswered cries, to David’s laments, to Elijah’s whisper, and even Jesus’ anguish in Gethsemane, we see that silence has always been part of the faith journey.

If you’ve ever wondered:

• Did I do something wrong?
• Is God upset with me?
• Why does it feel like everyone else hears Him but me?

This conversation is for you.

We’ll talk about:

• What God’s silence is and is not
• Why God may choose silence in certain seasons
• How to remain faithful when clarity is missing
• What to do when obedience comes before understanding
• How to trust God’s character when emotions say otherwise

If you’re in a waiting season, a wilderness moment, or a place where faith feels fragile, this episode offers truth, reassurance, and hope. You are not forgotten. God is still near. And even in the silence, He is still working.

Declaration

“Even when God is silent, He is still faithful.
I will not confuse quiet with absence.
I trust God in the waiting, and I believe He is working.”

Episode 51 kicks off with a fun salted caramel Moon Pie taste test before quickly turning into a lively and heartfelt Mary vs. Martha debate. Anchored in Luke 10:38–42, Jessica and Alexa examine how these two sisters reflect different personalities, callings, and spiritual rhythms that many of us see in ourselves today.

Jessica identifies strongly with Mary—someone who prioritizes being with Jesus, hearing His Word, and pushing past distractions to stay close to Him. Alexa advocates for Martha, pointing out that she intentionally made room for Jesus in her home and lived out her calling through hospitality and service. Martha’s life reminds us that serving is not second-class spirituality—it’s worship.

The conversation digs deeper into how gifting can feel effortless to others but exhausting to the one carrying it, and how hospitality, service, and leadership can quietly turn into anxiety when limits aren’t honored. Martha wasn’t upset that Mary was sitting—she was overwhelmed by carrying too much alone. When our eyes shift from Jesus to what others aren’t doing, bitterness and comparison can creep in.

Jessica and Alexa also challenge the “consumer mindset” in the Church, emphasizing that serving one another is biblical, worshipful, and necessary. They explore how Jesus addressed Martha’s anxiety—not her service—and why there are moments when even the most capable servant needs to stop and simply sit at His feet.

This episode reminds us that Mary and Martha were both loved, both called, and both necessary. The Body of Christ thrives when we honor different giftings, help one another carry the load, and keep our focus on Jesus above all else.

So… whose team are you on—Mary or Martha?

In Episode 50, Jessica and Alexa have an honest, challenging conversation about identity, boundaries, and breaking free from the fear of people’s opinions. From their completely different personal styles to how they approach planning and purpose, the Locas remind us that every God-given dream requires intention, structure, and action.

This episode tackles the danger of people-pleasing and control, and how easily we give weight to voices that have no stake in our lives. When we live fearing man, we hand over authority that belongs only to the Holy Spirit. God never called us to fit in—He called us to stand out.

Jessica and Alexa also dive into relationships, marriage, and dating, stressing the importance of having the hard conversations early—faith, finances, family, and calling. Love alone isn’t enough. The person you choose can either help fulfill your calling or hinder it, which is why healthy boundaries are essential to protect what God has entrusted to you.

They reference the book Boundaries by Dr. Henry Cloud, highlighting key truths like: people without boundaries will test yours, and discernment is required to know when to create space and when to pursue connection. Boundaries aren’t about control—they’re about stewardship. Jess shares her testimony about setting boundaries with family in Boundaries that Bless.

At the heart of it all is identity. When you don’t know who you are in Christ, others will define you for you. But when you know Him, you begin to walk confidently in who He’s called you to be.

God doesn’t want you basic. He wants you bold, free, and fully surrendered.
