Las Locas Chronicles
Welcome to our podcast—A podcast about two Latinas, one faith, endless stories! This is a podcast about 2 friends, Pastor Alexa Pineda and Pastor Jessica Fernandez, PhD, two Latinas from New York who are all about helping Christian women like YOU step boldly into your God-given purpose.
After 30 years of friendship (yes, THIRTY!), we’re keeping it real and talking about everything—what friends, wives, believers, and pastors struggle with, plus all the beautiful, messy, and faith-filled moments along the way.
Think of us as the tías you never had but always needed—the ones who’ll cheer you on, tell you the truth (even when it stings), and pray over you like your abuela would. Here, we serve up real talk with a side of spiritual fire—Bible truths, practical advice, and a whole lot of corazón.
So, grab your cafecito, hit that subscribe button, and let’s grow, glow, and give God the glory together. Dios tiene grandes planes para ti—let’s get to it!

Episode 17: Consumer vs. Contributor | Loving the Local Church
We’re calling it out—church was never meant to be a spectator sport. In this episode, we dig into the power, purpose, and beauty of the local church, and why it’s time to stop just attending and start contributing. 💒🔥
Whether you're a new believer or a seasoned leader, God is calling all of us to show up, plug in, and live out the Great Commission.
💬 In this episode:
– Why real relationships + accountability matter
– The beauty of local community & church family
– Building healthy spiritual connections (student, teacher, peer, counselor, spiritual director)
– Are you consuming content, or contributing to the Kingdom?
– The truth about discipleship, mentorship, and spiritual growth
– Honoring your local pastor & appreciating the Word—even when it’s not trendy
– Why your anointing is measured by who you follow, not who follows you
👀 Watch out for red flags, idolizing influencers, and spiritual buffet syndrome. If we want transformation, we have to be planted, teachable, and obedient.
🎯 It’s time to stop watching and start walking in your purpose.
