Should Pastors Use AI? with Michael Whittle, PulpitAI

In this episode, we dive deep into the intersection of technology and theology with Michael Whittle, exploring the innovative tool, PulpitAI. This generative AI-based tool is not just a technological marvel but a pastoral assistant, enabling pastors to upload sermon audio and transform it into various content forms like devotionals, Bible reading plans, and discussion questions. 

Michael shares the foundational philosophy of PulpitAI, emphasizing that it's "AI-generated, but human perfected," assisting pastors to transcend the blank page and create content that resonates with and disciples their congregation. The conversation navigates through the turbulent waters of content creation in a digital age, addressing the challenges pastors face in a culture saturated with competing voices and content. 

We reflect on the crucial role of local church pastors in shaping and discipling their congregations amidst the digital noise, underscoring the importance of maintaining theological and doctrinal integrity in AI-assisted content creation. The episode also peeks into the future, exploring the potential of creating theological and denominational personas within AI, ensuring that the technology serves the message and not the other way around. 

Join us as we explore the possibilities, challenges, and future of employing AI in pastoral work, ensuring that the message of the local church not only competes but thrives in the digital arena.
