Hey, welcome to Job with Julie. This is Julie Slattery, and this podcast is a production of authentic intimacy, a ministry dedicated to reclaiming God's design for sexuality.

that critical thinking to gender and sexuality.

My guest today is Amy Davison from Mama Bear Apologetics.

Mama Bear Apologetics is a group of women who want to help parents understand that the best

Amy's going to share some practical ways that she builds critical thinking into conversation
