AI and the Faithful Life
Read the parts in sequence. Each essay builds on the last.
Part 1
When Algorithms Intercede: Can AI Ever Replace the Spirit-Led Prayer of the Church?
AI tools now automate prayer requests and generate intercessions—but Pentecostal theology asks a deeper question: what is prayer, really?
Part 2
The Grief Bot and the Blessed Hope
AI grief bots can now simulate a deceased loved one's voice and personality. What does grief psychology say — and what does resurrection hope offer that no algorithm can?
Part 3
Partial Truth Is Not Enough: AI, Doctrinal Flattening, and the Spirit Who Guides
New research shows AI systematically omits Pentecostal distinctives. What does Spirit-led discernment look like in an age of fluent but incomplete theological answers?
Part 4
Alone Together: What AI Companions Reveal About Our Design for Real Fellowship
New research finds AI companionship can deepen loneliness over time. Pentecostal theology says we were built for embodied fellowship no algorithm can replace.
