Java with Juli Dr. Juli Slattery and Authentic Intimacy®

Have we the Church lost our way when it comes to living in unity? What would Jesus say about Christian cancel culture and the many threads on social media where people criticize one another in the name of Christianity?
God’s Word says, “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!”, and yet, in the modern American Church, unity can often be hard to find.
Join Juli and co-host Hannah Nitz as they discuss:
The need for a biblical perspective of the Church as Christ’s bride
How to extend God’s mercy, grace, and forgiveness to others and ourselves
How to cultivate a true Christian response to disagreements within the Church
Why maturity in the faith requires engagement with those with whom we disagree
How we can use the churches of the New Testament as a model to work through disagreements and pursue unity

Widowhood presents profound challenges, with loneliness permeating every aspect of life, including the realm of sexuality. The loss goes beyond losing a life partner; it extends to losing a sexual companion as well.
In this week’s Java with Juli, Dr. Carol Tanksley, who became widowed after just seven years of marriage in 2016, delves into the complexities faced by widows, and sheds light on the emotional and psychological hurdles they face. She also shares her personal experience of surrendering her sexuality to God in widowhood.
