A.I. in Ministry
Where should—and shouldn't—A.I. be used in ministry? It's a question pastors are grappling with as they navigate how this technology fits into their calling. On this edition of Equipped with Chris Brooks, we will welcome Nick Skytland to talk about new data on A.I. in ministry. What should A.I. help us do—and what should remain uniquely human in churches? Join the conversation on Equipped.
