About this Episode

Only 13% of pastors say they don't use AI at all. A quarter are using it to write or edit sermons, and I think the line should have been drawn well before that.

In this episode, I go through Barna's research on how pastors are actually using AI, why I'd stop at administrative work instead of brainstorming, and what gets lost when the silence before a sermon gets filled with a prompt instead of prayer. I also cover the bias problem and Barna's second study on AI as a spiritual authority.

I know I'm probably in the minority on this one. Tell me where you'd draw the line.
