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?
