Hey there, I'm Julie Slattery, and I'm so glad you've joined me today. Java with Julie is an outreach

of authentic intimacy, a ministry dedicated to reclaiming God's design for sexuality.

And our conversation today is going to help you do just that, no matter who you are or what your background is.

If you think reclaiming God's design for sexuality only applies for you if you have sexual sin, same-sex desires, or sexual abuse in your past, this conversation might surprise you.

My friends Linda Dillo and Yvette Marr joined me at the coffee shop to talk about how, for all of us,

our sexuality involves a spiritual battle between truth and lies.

There are so many lies that keep us from embracing the truth of what God has told us about sexuality.

A few of these might sound like, I'm not loved if I'm not desired, or I just don't deserve a

great sex life.

For me personally, a lie I believed was, God created sex for my husband, not for me.

The enemy's lies can come as subtle as a whisper or as loud as a bullhorn.

I hope you'll walk away from this episode of Java with Julie equipped to recognize Satan's
