    On this episode of Better Together, we’re joined by author and ministry expert Jason Moore to explore the fascinating intersection of artificial intelligence and the church. In his latest book, AI and the Church, Jason provides a clear roadmap for church leaders navigating the rapidly changing world of AI. We dive into practical ways AI can be harnessed for ministry, from streamlining administrative tasks to enhancing worship experiences. But we also tackle the tough questions: What ethical boundaries should guide the church’s use of AI? How do we ensure that our engagement with AI aligns with biblical principles? Whether you're intrigued or concerned by AI, this conversation offers thoughtful insights and practical wisdom for leading your church into the future with courage and integrity. Tune in for a compelling discussion on faith, technology, and the future of ministry!
