Topic: “Chatbot Jesus”—Don’t Fall for it.

The Constitution continues to succeed so well because it was based on the sinfulness of man—a doctrine affirmed in the Scriptures and proven by all history. Of course, our technologies change and that leads to new challenges. Technological advances can bode well for society. But not always. Question. Are some churches taking artificial intelligence as a tool too far? Publius Communications writes: “Artificial intelligence now offers ‘Chatbot Jesus,’ personalized prayers, AI-generated sermons, and even virtual pastors charging subscription fees. While some ministries see these tools as a digital lifeline for shrinking congregations, and others view them as new avenues for outreach, faith leaders warn that the church risks confusing convenience with calling.
