Meet Alli

My name is Alli Phillips, and I am both humbled and excited to co-lead this session of Foundations of Sexual Discipleship. I found Dr. Slattery and Authentic Intimacy while leading a faith-based pregnancy medical center and over the past several years God has used this ministry to grow me as a wife, mother, leader and, most importantly, as a follower of Jesus. The content of this particular cohort, combined with the rich conversations among the leaders who participate in it, have given me a deeper understanding of the Biblical narrative of sexuality as well as the courage to have more conversations about God and sex in my home, my church and in my community. It was God’s love that freed me from my shame surrounding sexuality, and I long for others to experience that same freedom.
