Is Artificial Intelligence Hijacking Modern Ministry?
Notes de l’épisode
On this episode of the Build the Church Podcast, Josh Roberie unpacks one of the biggest questions facing pastors today: Should churches embrace generative AI—or avoid it altogether?
From the Roman roads and Gutenberg’s printing press to the rise of the internet, Josh shows how technology has always shaped the way the gospel spreads. He explains what generative AI actually is, how pastors can use it for sermon prep, creative brainstorming, and content creation, and the ethical pitfalls to avoid—like privacy, bias, and over-reliance on machines.
You’ll walk away with practical guardrails, inspiring examples, and a clear conclusion: AI isn’t a magic wand, but it can be a powerful kingdom tool when stewarded wisely.
Whether you’re skeptical or curious, this episode will help you think through AI’s role in your ministry and how to harness it without losing your voice or authenticity.
