Once more, I listened gratefully to biblical concepts being uncompromisingly stated in the European Parliament building, including that human dignity derived solely from the understanding of humanity as created in God’s image.

The encyclical has little sense of the tragedy of sin, sees the gospel as a process in which nature is made more perfect and justifies the Church's role as a mediator between man and God.

Since becoming Leo XIV, Pope Prevost hinted at his desire to build on Leo XIII’s legacy by updating the Social Doctrine of the Church on the pressing concern of today: how to deal with Artificial Intelligence (AI) without succumbing the human person to it.

However much it is expressed in lively, pop-culture language, Staglianò’s theological framework is the old Thomism rejuvenated by John Paul II in the encyclical Fides et Ratio (1998).

As AI continues to be taught to be more human, what do I, as a human mother, want to impart to my children so that they will continue to know what it means to be human? What should they know of their roots and their beliefs? 

A ministry focused on digital mission fields based in the UK offers training and collaboration. “We’re passionate about seeing Christians in gaming communities take opportunities to share their faith online when they arise”, says Heinz Oldewage.

The demon’s modern revival in AI circles can be traced to philosopher Scott Alexander. Moloch represents impersonal systemic pressures, optimisation, and incentives misaligned with human values.

AI is already extensively present in the church. The question is, are we going to continue to use them in a way that honors God and serves the people God has placed in our care?
 

We speak with pastor and artist Andrés Pérez about culture, spirituality, art and artificial intelligence.

All of us need to resist laziness in depending on AI and read with skepticism everything that might have been AI-generated and pockmarked with credible-sounding but false information.

The integration of AI-generated and assisted content will require Christians to be proficient at contextualizing content to address needs in the appropriate languages.

In an age of Artificial Intelligence, the local church can become a beacon of stability and hope, demonstrating what it means to love God and neighbor with heart, soul, mind, and strength.

In an increasingly artificial and disembodied world, it is the authentic and embodied human that brings the tangible love of Christ to the lost and lonely. 

A major survey shows that hate speech online, personal privacy and societal polarisation also concern a vast majority of citizens in EU countries.

As with the printing press or the smartphone, the question before us is not if AI will influence discipleship, but how we will steward it.

The work of biblical scholarship, interpretation, teaching, and learning is the work of the body of Christ, and cannot be responsibly performed by a machine.

AI should help us address ways to collaborate with communities to facilitate spiritual transformation, growth in Christ, and help the emerging church grow and mature.

Artificial intelligence, conflict resolution, evangelical theology, and the centrality of the Bible in the Christian faith are the topics of four three-hour online masterclasses offered free of charge by the Forum of Christian Leaders with speakers affiliated with the European Leadership Forum.

I'm excited by how helpful and efficient Ai tools are. Yet they work best when used by someone already shaped by years of training, when one’s skills and relationship with the Bible are essentially in place.

The revival of interest in faith, technological advances, polarization, and the importance of discipleship were topics of conversation for the 700 participants in Benidorm at GBU Spain's major event.

Artificial Intelligence is not a panacea, but its potential to transform the lives of children with additional needs is undeniable. 

Six in ten young people in Germany believe that using social media worsens mental health. A large majority of adults believe that children under 16 should not have online profiles.

Will Graham, grandson of the well-known 20th-century evangelist, reflects on the challenges of technology and shares his experiences in evangelism.

Measures include age verification on pornographic sites and criminalising the creation, possession and exchange of child sexual abuse material generated by artificial intelligence.

More than 300 guests attended the celebration in Bern. The Christian vision of the early days remains the same, but editor-in-chief Florian Wütrich called for courage in navigating the new context of AI.
