Episode 248: Surrendered Sexuality | Juli Slattery

We don’t just follow a biblical sexuality

We surrender our sexuality.

What does that mean?

Today we have Authentic Intimacy co-founder, author, and psychologist, Juli Slattery, back on the show to help us understand the difference as well as: 

• What do we do if we feel stuck in our broken sexuality and shame?
• How do we love people who want to fight us?
• How do you invite someone into bringing their full selves to Jesus?
• What if we don’t want to do this ministry work anymore?

| Highlights |

• “Most Christians have a saving knowledge of Christ, but they don’t have an ongoing intimacy with Jesus that changes anything.”
• “The idea of offering your body to God when you have been sexually traumatized is terrifying. It could be helpful to remember that although God has every right to pull rank, He never does that. He is always inviting. He gives, and He invites.”
• “When I wake up and my job every day is to engage in sexual issues, I have no energy for that. Honestly. I don’t like it. When I wake up and I see that my calling is to engage people on the spiritual issues that sexually often represent, boy do I get energized.”
