Summary

Does 2020 have you feeling exhausted? Dissatisfied?  Here’s a crazy thought: Put down your to-do list. What if you start the first 30 days of 2021 by surrendering your to-do list to Jesus and listening for His voice?  You can turn to devotionals, blogs, and even great podcasts like Java with Juli—but only the presence of God can bring the fulfillment you crave. What does it feel like to hunger and thirst for Him? Join Juli, Linda, and Hannah as Linda shares how God taught her to find fulfillment by sitting at His feet. We challenge YOU to try it for 30 days and see what God will do!

Guests: Linda Dillow & Hannah Nitz

There's no area of humanity in which Christians can feel more ill-equipped than the arena of sexuality.

0:09.0

It's kind of this flawed thinking we have as Christians that somehow men and women will just magically become whole in their sexuality without it ever being discussed.

0:20.0

The biggest one is that somehow pornography usage is caused by a lack of marital sex,

0:28.6

or a lack of good sex. They are somehow interchangeable.

And this causes wives to believe that they're responsible.

0:36.6

This also gives them the false confidence that

0:39.6

somehow they can fix it. You can have a lot of sex in this life and not be experiencing

but you can also experience a lot of intimacy that is nothing to do with sex.

0:56.2

We see that in the life of Jesus.

0:57.8

We see that in the life of Paul.

1:00.7

We should see that in the life of the church.

I'm Julie Slattery.

1:10.0

Java with Julie exists to help you have conversations about sexuality that draw people to Jesus Christ, and we're doing just that.

1:12.2

One listener commented, as a Christian, I grew up with a split mind regarding sex and spirituality.

1:17.7

I'm 43 now and have just begun to learn that these two great themes of my life,

1:22.4

sex and my relationship with God, are not mutually exclusive, but are both part of one great design.

1:29.5

We want to continue to create conversations that help you grow in intimacy with God and to

1:34.9

understand why he cares so much about your sexuality.
