40 Bible Passages About AI: Scripture for an Age of Intelligent Machines
40 Bible Passages About AI: Scripture for an Age of Intelligent Machines releases tomorrow, and I wrote two of the chapters.
Chapter 25 is on 1 Thessalonians 5:19-22, where Paul tells the church to test everything and hold on to what is good. What does that look like in practice when the tool in question is a language model?
Chapter 26 is on Hebrews 4:12-13. Hebrews already talks about a people wandering in the wilderness, and I take that as a question about how we survive the digital one.
Douglas Estes and Marcus Schwarting edited the book, and over twenty of us contributed. We picked passages that shine light on AI and what Scripture actually says about it. Each of the forty passages gets a short essay on why it matters right now, which means you can skip around and read whatever passage interests you. It's built as a reference for pastors, church leaders, and educators. Grab it on Amazon or from Friendship Press.
