On my 1997 Grand Cherokee Limited, you could feel the slip - especially after backing up first thing in the morning and then shifting into Drive.

My dad has a 1995 and he had slip issues too.

The fix was simple for both Jeeps - check the Transmission Fluid level. As little as one pint of lost fluid can make the transmission start slipping. It seems like such a small amount given the capacity of the transmission but filling to the correct level fixed the slip on both Jeeps.

Do not over fill.

It worked for me and might not for you - but it is a quick and inexpensive first thing to check.
