#321: Taking Your Marriage Back From Porn

by Authentic Intimacy®

One of the most painful experiences as a wife is learning of your husband’s porn addiction—or learning that he’s turning to porn again (and again). Author (and wife of a now-sober porn addict) Rosie Makinney is passionate about equipping wives with the appropriate steps to fight for their marriages, help their husbands, and find support for their own healing as well. Where do you draw boundaries? How do you know if he’s in a healthy support group? Is it okay to take time off from sex? We address all of those questions and more in this episode of Java with Juli. Grab your java and join us!

#318: Why Are We Afraid to Touch?

by Authentic Intimacy®

Let’s face it: As Christians, we’re kind of afraid to touch. Touch feels unsafe and sexual—even worldly—and we can be led to believe that the more boundaries we put in place, the "better off" we'll all be. Except, well … Jesus touched. And he allowed others to touch him: A prostitute washed his feet and dried it with her hair. He used his hands to rub mud on blind eyes. He invited Thomas to place his fingers in the nail holes in his palms. Is it time to re-think the way we view touch?
