Summary

At the core of any relationship are two people who care about each other. So when you don’t approve of a relationship, how do you reflect God's unconditional love to the people who are in it? On this Java with Juli, you’ll hear the story of a girl who grew up uncomfortable in her own skin, confused by her feelings, and who took the courageous step to leave her same-sex relationships after she became a Christian. If you’re walking alongside a friend or loved one who is struggling with same-sex attraction, you’ll find wisdom and practical advice on this Java with Juli.
