Hi Reader,
AI isn't some future thing. We're in the era now.
This week, someone in your congregation is asking ChatGPT a theological question. They're getting spiritual direction from an algorithm. And they trust it.
New Barna data says nearly half of practicing Christians say they'd trust AI with their spiritual growth.
Pastors, that's half of this people in your church this Sunday. And one in three U.S. adults believes spiritual advice from artificial intelligence is just as trustworthy as advice from a pastor.
So what do you do with that?
You don't need to panic, you shouldn't ignore it, but you do need to lead through it. You don't have to have all the answers, you just have to start the conversation.
Our friends at Subsplash put together a helpful guide on the five conversations every church staff needs to have about AI. It's practical, grounded, and designed to help you find clarity.
Digital Stewardship: A Church AI Policy Toolkit for Leaders

Discover how AI can help your team save hours of time and track community engagement with AI tools built for churches, already trusted by thousands of pastors, that will dramatically change the way you do ministry.
Reclaiming your team’s schedule allows you to focus on what matters most: sharing the Gospel and making disciples.
If you lead a team (even a small one), I think this is worth a few minutes of your time.
