Hi, Julie. I just want to let you know how meaningful I find each of your podcasts. Even when I think it's not going to apply to me, I'm prompted to listen anyway, and I'm always surprised how much I learn. I'm now sharing Java with Julie with my daughters and friends. Thank you for tackling the sensitive, difficult, and ugly topics. how we need to hear God's truth and voice

on all these things.

Well, we do need to hear the truth, and that's what authentic intimacy is here for.

I'm Julie Slahery, and I'm so glad that you join me each week for Java with Julie.

Thank you for helping me teach thousands of men and women about God's design for sexuality

Satisfy my thirsty soul.

How are you guys satisfying your thirst right now here at Mission Coffee on job with Julie?

Linda, what are you drinking?

Okay, I'm a really sad person because I don't drink coffee, and I have sparkling water with lemon.

Okay, well, some people will appreciate that.

I don't, but... I am not one of them.

I'm glad you're liking it.

I love it.

Yeah?

How would you get it?

Yeah, I got a iced vanilla latte. Yeah. Vanilla latte. I was introduced to coffee for the, well, I started liking coffee for the first time ever six months ago, which was a big deal. I feel like I finally came into adulthood. Yes. And Julie, I feel, has been significantly nicer to me since liking coffee.

I've been nicer to you? Like, you like me more now that I like coffee. That's not true. I think

you just perceive me as liking you more because your life is better because you're drinking coffee.
