    Episode 89: Called, Questioned & Still Going

    Send us Fan Mail This month on Las Locas Chronicles, we’re dedicating our conversations to the women who are leading, serving, building, creating, and answering God’s call—whether that happens in ministry, the workplace, business, or somewhere in between. And this episode? We’re taking you to lunch! We’re ordering from Ichiban in Amarillo, TX, and yes… they get a Las Locas 5-star for the food! But while we eat, we’re getting REAL about what it actually feels like to lead. We talk about the moments when you’re overwhelmed and how carrying too much can eventually take a toll on your body. We talk about how Las Locas Chronicles itself has become another way we do ministry—because ministry doesn’t always look like a pulpit. The question is always: Does it point back to Jesus? Because whatever God has called you to do, STAND ON IT. People will question your assignment. They may not understand it. And sometimes, the hardest disappointment is realizing that the people closest to you may not support what God has asked you to do. But consistency matters. Your assignment will require investment—your time, your resources, your energy, and your yes. And you don't have to know every step ahead of time. Allow God to lead the NEXT STEP. Because everything is a step. Whether you're a woman in ministry, leading in the workplace, building a business, raising a family, or simply trying to figure out what God is asking of you in this season—stick to the assignment. And while you're doing it, take care of YOU. You are a reflection of God. Take the time to look good, feel good, rest, and care for the woman carrying the assignment. And when you see another woman struggling, instead of criticizing her, ask: “How can I help?” And if you don't know how to do something? ASK. There is no shame in saying, “I don't know how to do this. Can you show me?” So grab your lunch, pull up a chair, and hang out with Jess & Lex for a conversation about leadership, disappointment, consistency, self-care, obedience, and staying anchored to the One who gave you the assignment in the first place. Whatever God called you to do—stand on it. Stay consistent. Take the next step. And keep pointing it all back to Jesus. Because LOCA… the assignment is yours.

    Episode 88: What Ifs — When Anxiety Takes Over

    Send us Fan Mail What happens when life throws something unexpected at you and suddenly your mind is filled with “What if?” This week was a rough one for Las Locas. Unexpected life events brought real anxiety, fear, and uncertainty—and reminded us how quickly our thoughts can spiral when we don’t know what comes next. In Episode 88: What Ifs — When Anxiety Takes Over, we talk honestly about navigating anxious thoughts while choosing to trust God in the middle of uncertainty. 📖 Psalm 56:3–4: “When I am afraid, I will trust in you.” Fear may show up, but it doesn’t have to take over. Join Pastors Alexa and Jessica as we talk about faith, fear, the “what ifs,” and learning to bring our anxious thoughts back to the God who sees every tear and knows exactly what we’re walking through. 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on YouTube and all streaming platforms. 🌐 Visit laslocaschronicles.com for more from Las Locas Chronicles.

    Episode 87: Purpose in the Middle

    Send us Fan Mail What do you do when you’re not where you want to be—but you’re also not where you used to be? In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we’re talking about the messy middle through 1 Samuel 7:12 and Samuel’s Ebenezer stone: “Thus far the Lord has helped us.” Sometimes we get so focused on what hasn’t happened yet that we forget how far God has already brought us. The Ebenezer reminds us that we don’t have to be at the destination to recognize God’s faithfulness along the way. You may still be waiting, healing, growing, or becoming—but that doesn’t mean God hasn’t been moving. You’re not there yet. But thank God, you’re not where you were. New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on YouTube and all streaming platforms. Visit laslocaschronicles.com for more from Las Locas Chronicles.

    Episode 86: I'm Not Giving Up...I'm Surrendering!

    Send us Fan Mail The Difference Between Giving Up & Surrendering! Have you ever said, “I’m done!” but deep down you weren’t really done? In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, Jess and Lex talk about the difference between giving up and surrendering. Giving up says: “I don’t believe this can change.” Surrender says: “I don’t have to control how this changes.” Giving up walks away from the fight. Surrender gives God the fight. 📖 Core Scripture: Psalm 37:5 NLT “Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust him, and he will help you.” We also discuss Proverbs 3:5–6, Matthew 11:28–30, Luke 22:42, Romans 12:1, 1 Peter 5:7, and Galatians 6:9. Sometimes faith means continuing to believe while releasing the outcome to God. ☕ Grab your cafecito and join us. 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on YouTube and all major podcast platforms. 🛍️ laslocaschronicles.com #LasLocasChronicles #SurrenderToGod #TrustGod #ChristianWomen #ChristianPodcast

    Episode 85: From Scratch

    Send us Fan Mail Sometimes the answer isn’t doing more—it’s recognizing just how tired we really are. In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we’re talking about rest and what it means to rebuild from scratch when your body, mind, emotions, and spirit have been running on empty. Inspired by Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith’s book Sacred Rest, we unpack the seven types of rest: physical, mental, emotional, sensory, creative, social, and spiritual. Because sleep alone doesn’t always fix exhaustion. Sometimes we’re tired in places a nap can’t reach. We also look at Jesus’ words in Matthew 6:27: “Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” How much energy are we spending worrying, striving, overthinking, and trying to control what only God can handle? Maybe it’s time to stop running on empty, make room for real rest, and allow God to rebuild us from scratch. Join Las Locas as we talk honestly about burnout, worry, rest, and learning to trust God enough to slow down. 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on your favorite podcast platforms and YouTube. 🛍️ Visit us for merch and more at LasLocasChronicles.com.

    Episode 84: Show Up as the BEST Version of YOU

    Send us Fan Mail What does it look like to show up as the best version of yourself—not for approval, comparison, or perfection, but because you recognize the value God has placed in you? In Episode 84, we’re talking about the little things that can help us feel more confident, intentional, and prepared to walk into the spaces God has called us to. Sometimes showing up differently starts with something as simple as taking care of yourself, putting a little effort into your appearance, changing your mindset, and deciding that you’re worth the investment. And because we’re Las Locas… we’re putting it into action! 😂🛍️ We’re sending one of you a special Dollar Tree gift box filled with fun finds to help you step into the BEST version of YOU! Listen to the episode for all the details. Remember: becoming your best self isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about growing into the woman God created YOU to be. New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST! Watch us on YouTube or listen on your favorite podcast platform. 🛍️ Visit us for Las Locas merch and more at laslocaschronicles.com Come laugh, learn, and grow with your favorite Locas—where faith meets a little sazón. 💕

    Episode 83: Who Are We Modeling?

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we’re talking about the powerful influence women have inside their homes, marriages, churches, and communities. Titus 2:3–5 calls mature women to teach and mentor younger women—not only through their words, but through the way they live. Biblical mentorship is about showing the next generation what it looks like to love God, love their families, walk in wisdom, and live with integrity. We also unpack 1 Peter 3:1–2 and the often misunderstood topic of submitting to our husbands. Biblical submission is not about losing your voice, value, or identity. It’s about honoring God in the way we love, respect, and serve within our marriages while allowing our godly character to become a testimony. Our husbands, children, and the younger women watching us are learning from more than what we say. They are watching how we respond, how we love, how we forgive, how we honor, and how we follow Jesus. The question is: Who are we modeling? Join Alexa and Jessica as we talk about mentorship, marriage, family, submission, and becoming women whose lives demonstrate the love and character of God. 📖 Scriptures: Titus 2:3–5 | 1 Peter 3:1–2 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on YouTube and all streaming platforms. 🛍️ Visit LasLocasChronicles.com for merch and more.

    Episode 82: Palm Tree Faith

    Send us Fan Mail What does it look like to have faith that stays rooted when life gets stormy? In this episode of Las Locas Chronicles, we’re talking about Palm Tree Faith—the kind of faith that may bend under pressure but refuses to break. Jesus reminds us in Matthew 7:24 that the wise person doesn’t just hear His words but puts them into practice, building their life on a firm foundation. And Psalm 92:13–14 reminds us that those who are planted in the house of the Lord will continue to flourish and bear fruit—even in later seasons of life. Just like a palm tree develops the roots necessary to withstand strong winds, our faith must be deeply rooted in God before the storms come. 🌴 Are you planted or just positioned? 🌴 Are your roots deep enough for the season you’re entering? 🌴 Are you building your life on what Jesus said—or simply listening to it? The storm doesn’t determine whether you stand. Your foundation does. Grab your cafecito and join Las Locas as we talk about developing a faith that is rooted, resilient, and still producing fruit. 📖 Scriptures: Matthew 7:24 | Psalm 92:13–14 🎙️ New episodes every Thursday at 12 PM CST on all streaming platforms and YouTube. 🛍️ Shop Las Locas merch and learn more at laslocaschronicles.com #LasLocasChronicles #PalmTreeFaith #Faith #ChristianPodcast #RootedInChrist #BibleStudy #ChristianWomen #Psalm92 #Matthew7
