Does the Bible say anything more about sex than "thou shalt not"? From married couples using natural family planning or struggling with infertility to single women noticing elevated estrogen and sexual desire around ovulation, it's worth it to explore what role sex could play in our lives not only physically but spiritually. Today, Dr. Juli Slattery from Authentic Intimacy joins Caitlin to talk about these things and describe the beautiful narrative around sex laid out for us in Scripture. This episode is not just for married couples or those who are sexually active, but all believers who want to dive deeper into understanding how our sexuality reflects our faith.

NOTE: This episode may not be appropriate for all audiences due to the topic, which openly discusses sex and sexuality.

GUEST BIO: Dr. Juli Slattery is the president and co-founder of Authentic Intimacy, a ministry helping women and people overall make sense of God and sexuality. She's the host of a weekly podcast, Java with Juli, and has authored or co-authored 14 books, including God, Sex, and Your Marriage and Rethinking Sexuality.
