Defining the role of the church
in the age of AI

Shape the future

Everyone is talking about Artificial Intelligence. It's changing culture faster than anyone can keep up. On the one hand, many people are scared of what AI could do to humanity. On the other hand, some people describe the incredible innovations AI will deliver.

Join the frontlines as we equip ministry leaders to proactively harness AI to amplify the gospel, and frame the AI narrative with faith and integrity, becoming the conscience of their churches in this digital era.
