You’ve probably seen some of the conversations swirling around AI in churches lately: an AI “Jesus” sharing a message, or ChatGPT/Claude being prompted to generate Bible studies based on a theme or single phrase. Maybe that’s not how you would lead, but I’m watching more and more ministries use AI in this way.
A 2024 survey from Exponential showed that 87% of respondents were open to using AI for ministry purposes. That’s explosive growth and it raises serious questions.
Yes, AI offers huge benefits, but as the Church, we shoulder the responsibility to use it with care, wisdom, and integrity.
Here’s what’s at stake without clear AI safety practices:
- Breaches of privacy when congregant data is mishandled
- Misuse of information collected with one purpose but used for another
- Potential legal exposure or reputational harm
To empower ministry teams to move forward wisely, I’m hosting an AI Training for local church leaders:
