#527 Why Friendship, not Romance, is the Greatest Love of All
Have we lost our vision for loving relationships outside the context of marriage and the nuclear family? What was the greatest love Jesus described in the Bible? Was it romantic love, or a different type of sacrificial love?
Rebecca McLaughlin joins Juli to explain how we’ve minimized friendship and overemphasized sexual relationships.

#525 Churches and Porn: What isn't Working and How to Change it
Struggles with pornography are incredibly common within the Church, and the problem isn’t going to go away on its own.
What can churches do to be an environment where it is safe for congregants and leaders to admit struggles and get the support they need to overcome them? How can those going into ministry receive sufficient discipleship and care so they can heal from past traumas, win the battle, and walk closely and authentically with Jesus?
Sam Black, Director of Life Change Education at Covenant Eyes, and author of “The Healing Church: What Churches Get Wrong about Pornography and How to Fix It”, joins Juli to discuss what the church at large can do to address the issue of pornography.

#523 How Past Family Patterns Impact the Way You Love Today
The way we are brought up has a significant influence on the way we form attachments with others. There are few relationships in which this is as pronounced or as obvious as marriage.
Kay and Milan Yerkovich, authors of the breakthrough book, “How We Love”, want to empower couples to become more aware of the ways in which their early years formed them, and to acquire the skills to develop secure attachments for healthy, long-lasting relationships.

#522 The Paradox of Hope and Brokenness: Jesus, Depression and SSA
In Jesus there is hope for healing and transformation, but that doesn’t mean that in this life we won’t experience hardship and brokenness.
Brenna Blain, renowned speaker and new author, knows this better than most. Experiencing same-sex attraction and fighting her own mental health battle from around the age of 14, Brenna joins Juli to explain how coming to the very end of herself led her to a place desperate enough to long for God Himself, and not just His healing.

Customer Reviews
Grace and truth on complicated topics
Juli’s ministry is one of the best podcasts i’ve found to date. She is honest, grace filled, humble, and biblically faithful. She address hard topics sex, culture and church in a helpful and thoughtful way.
Truth for marriage
When we need (sometimes hard) honest truth, we know we can find it here. Thank you for being willing to address all the topics!
Life giving & refreshing
I absolutely love this podcast, and I look forward to new episodes every Monday. Juli does a FANTASTIC job of teaching on difficult conversations the church usually ignores like LGBTQ, the realities of sex, and all stages of marriage/relationships. She has such a way of recognizing God’s mercy, grace, and His unconditional love for people in tough situations outside of some of the legalistic answers or approaches we have grown up learning in church. She has a “this is the way we have been taught and maybe it was with good intentions, but we can do better,” kind of approach. Juli’s voice is so calming. This has been an answer to my prayers. So often her podcasts answer questions I’ve had on “taboo church subjects” for YEARS, but I’d never been brave enough to ask, nor have I ever heard preached about in my 26 years of life. I love that she never forces her viewpoints on her guests who may have a different understanding of the Bible. She is always respectful and constantly looking on ways to grow herself. I’ve learned so much from her podcasts, and I definitely encourage others to take a listen.
