#384: Do You Empower Your Husband or Enable Him? (The Difference is BIG)
Hosted by Dr. Juli Slattery
While some of us are tempted to use our power in marriage 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!

Rethinking Sexuality
The Christian church has largely avoided honest conversations about sexuality — so many of us don't know how to have them. The "Rethinking Sexuality" curriculum will teach you how to think biblically about sexuality and equip you to have conversations that point people to Jesus as their Lord, Savior, and Healer.
Books, Blog & Online Book Studies
Authentic Intimacy exists to equip men and women with resources around sexuality. Stop by our online store to check out our books, Java Packs (audio studies), and conference videos. Our blog has hundreds of posts on topics for every season of sexuality, and we offer online book studies each quarter.

Make sense of sexuality.
Many Christians believe that their sexual choices and beliefs are separate from their spiritual pursuits. They assume that God doesn’t have an opinion about their sexuality — that He allows them to make those choices for themselves.
This is a destructive lie. In fact, sexuality and spirituality were designed to be inseparable. Our sexual beliefs and behaviors are a reflection of what we truly believe about God. Every sexual question is ultimately a spiritual question.
Engaging in conversations about our sexuality is a necessary part of the Great Commission (making disciples). People need help understanding their sexuality within the context of God’s character and biblical teaching.
