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 70: Be Desperate for God’s Good and Perfect
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What are you willing to trade for temporary comfort? In this episode, we talk about the danger of settling for what is immediate instead of trusting God for what is eternal. Through the story of Moses’ mother, we explore the faith and surrender it takes to release what we love into God’s hands, believing His plan is greater even when it hurts. We also unpack the story of Esau, who gave up his birthright for a bowl of lentils, showing how desperation for temporary satisfaction can cost us something far more valuable.
This conversation challenges us to stop chasing quick fixes, emotional impulses, and temporary relief, and instead become desperate for God’s good and perfect will. Sometimes obedience requires sacrifice, patience, trust, and the courage to believe that what God has ahead is worth waiting for.
Join us as we discuss surrender, trust, identity, delayed gratification, and the danger of trading sacred things for temporary cravings.
