This morning, I had the privilege of joining "Karl and Crew" on the Moody Radio Network’s “Ask the Experts” week to discuss artificial intelligence from a Christian worldview. Drawing on my doctoral research, I explain AI’s origins, ethical challenges, and real-world applications in areas like education, healthcare, and ministry. I received calls and emails from listeners seeking practical advice on engaging with AI responsibly, maintaining discernment, and utilizing it to advance biblical study, while encouraging them to approach the technology with critical thinking and community accountability. I hope you will enjoy it!
