Have you ever wondered why we need to pray if God already knows everything we’re thinking and feeling? In this episode, Nellani breaks down the beauty and purpose of prayer—not as a way to inform God, but as a way to transform us. Through Scripture, personal stories, and practical encouragement, you’ll be reminded that prayer isn’t about having the right words—it’s about showing up with your heart. Whether you’re in a season of silence or speaking to God daily, this episode will help you rediscover why your voice still matters to Him.

Ever watch two aunties yell “What you said?!” back and forth—and somehow still have a full conversation? In this episode, Nellani shares a hilarious real-life moment with her grandma and aunty that turns into a deeper reflection on how we often hear but don’t really listen.

From family laughs to faith truths, we explore how listening—truly listening—can transform our relationships with others and with God. Plus, with the passing of Pope Francis, we reflect on how the cardinals must now become deep listeners of the Holy Spirit as they prepare to choose our next pope.

Let’s learn to be slow to speak, quick to listen, and ready to receive God’s voice in this noisy world.

In this powerful episode of Getting PersoNell with Christ, Nell chats with her friend Jennifer, whose journey into the Catholic faith began not through tradition, but through a personal choice—and a deep, unwavering prayer life.

From a young age, Jennifer chose Catholicism on her own, drawn not by pressure but by a pull to something greater. She opens up about how prayer became her foundation, her comfort, and her compass. Whether in moments of clarity or confusion, joy or hardship, she kept showing up—rosary in hand, heart wide open.

This episode is a beautiful reminder that faith isn’t always inherited—it’s often built in silence, through whispers of hope and consistent conversation with God.

✨ If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to choose faith and keep choosing it, this one's for you.

In this heartfelt and hilarious episode, I sit down with my sister to talk story about Adore: The Eucharistic Revival Musical, the autobiographical show inspired by our real-life journey. We chat about the actors who played us, her unfiltered thoughts on how I portrayed her in the script (uh oh!), and what it felt like to relive these sacred, silly, and sometimes emotional memories through theater. From behind-the-scenes laughs to tear-jerking moments, this episode is a beautiful blend of family, faith, and finding God in our real-life story. You don’t want to miss it!
