What if I'm Attracted to Someone Who Isn't My Spouse? #606

Java with Juli - Making Sense of God and Sex

This week, Juli sits down with Joe and Hannah to tackle the question: What do you do when you're attracted to someone who isn't your spouse?

Together, they unpack the reality that attraction outside of marriage isn't a matter of if, but when. From the myth of "soulmates" to the powerful role of brain chemistry, this conversation explores why these feelings happen, and why they don't have to define your choices.

You'll also learn how small decisions, honesty, and intentional investment in your marriage can protect what matters most.
