In this episode, Thomas goes through a long list of real AI use cases happening in churches right now, from sermon research and discipleship chatbots to pasting giving records into ChatGPT and posting AI-generated prayers without disclosure, and calls each one in bounds or out of bounds. \n\nThis episode is for pastors and church leaders who know AI is already showing up in their ministry, whether or not they've officially addressed it. Along the way, Thomas and the team unpack why intent and transparency matter more than the tool itself, and why only 5% of churches currently have a written AI policy even though most leaders say they need one.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/hHdpkz1SiJM4WlhNoYGKcmhnGyoIBO0rdJ04HJvirJo/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8yZjBm/ZjRkMGRiMGRhNmQ0/YmE1ZTU5ZWFhNTUz/ODA2Ni5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
