Evangelism in the Age of AI (with Stephen Driscoll)

Written in epistolary form, the novel tells the story of Victor Frankenstein, a brilliant and ambitious scientist who, driven by Enlightenment-era ideas of progress and science, creates a living being from dead body parts. However, upon seeing the creature come to life, Frankenstein is horrified and abandons it. The creature, shunned by society due to its appearance, seeks revenge against its creator, leading to a series of tragic events. The novel explores themes of guilt, loss, and the emotional and moral consequences of scientific hubris, blending elements of Gothic and Romantic literature.

In "Made in Our Image," Stephen Driscoll delves into the complex relationship between artificial intelligence and Christian theology. The book examines AI through the lenses of creation, sin, the cross, and the new creation, providing a framework for understanding its impact on human identity and relationships. Driscoll cautions against both technological utopianism and dystopian fears, advocating for a balanced approach rooted in biblical principles. The book encourages Christians to engage thoughtfully with AI, recognizing both its potential benefits and inherent limitations. It challenges readers to consider how AI reflects human nature and how it can be used to further God's purposes in the world. By exploring these themes, Driscoll provides a timely and insightful resource for navigating the ethical and spiritual challenges of an increasingly AI-driven world.
