This is an old thread which is not monitored.
I was pinged by one of the user to assist in your request, if not your request will go unnoticed.
Now back to your request.
The theme author has renamed the section.
The new path is in Appearance -> Customize -> Content -> Post Lists Design and Content
Please see my screen-cast which shows you the location.

You need to have posts tagged to a category.
You need to go to Appearance -> Customize -> Content -> Post Lists Design and Content
Find the setting -> Feature posts on top of your blog
check the checkbox, in order to activate that section.
Next, you will need to go to the next setting -> Select a category to feature
to select your category, so that the posts get shown in the slider.
Save Changes when you are done.
That’s all you need to do.
Please open a new thread if you require further assistance.
I will not be monitoring this thread.
Thank you
