Summary
Nobody said marriage would be easy. It takes great courage, strength and self-control to be the woman God has called you to be in your marriage. While some of us are tempted to use our power to control or manipulate (a temporary fix at best), others shrink back and say, “I guess this is as good as it gets.” But neither of these responses honor God or build intimacy with your husband. Ready to try a better way?
P.S. Who is Juli's special guest? It’s her hero himself: Mike Slattery is on the mic!

| 0:00.0 | Hey friend, welcome to another episode of Java with Julie and Hot Chalkout with Hannah. |
| 0:07.7 | Hannah Nitz is joining me. A spin-off show you guys don't know about. That's right. This podcast, as |
| 0:15.2 | always, is listener-supported. So thank you for those of you who give to our ministry and we are a production of authentic intimacy. |
| 0:23.2 | Our goal is to reclaim God's design for sexuality. |
| 0:25.9 | So today, Hannah, we are diving more deeply into some of the content from finding the hero and your husband. |
| 0:32.6 | Yes, the book is out. |
| 0:34.2 | We're so excited. |
| 0:35.8 | It's fun to see you guys starting to get it in your hands and read it. |
| 0:39.5 | We're just kind of powering through some good conversations from it. Yeah, we're going to hit |
| 0:43.2 | on a big one today. An easy one. Oh yeah, right. Guys, we're talking about the word submission. |
| 0:51.4 | Can you even believe that? We need a little extra Java for this one. I know. I know. |
| 0:56.3 | So, Julie, a quote from your section on submission. You said, I believe that I am a very strong |

| 1:20.3 | can be in the same book or even the same chapter as submission. Yeah, I know. It's just a little teaser, |

| 1:30.5 | So if you're with us last week, we kind of started talking about this idea of as |
| 1:35.2 | wives, this power in our marriage and using this with our husbands. |
| 1:39.1 | And we're going to keep doing that conversation today. |
