In this episode of the Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast, Jared sits down with William Vanderbloemen to explore how church leaders can wisely navigate the rise of AI and other emerging technologies. From sermon preparation to staffing decisions, they discuss where AI fits into ministry—and where it doesn’t.
Key discussion points include:
AI in the Pulpit: Should pastors use AI to help build sermons? What’s ethical and what’s helpful?
Human-First Ministry: Why the future of the church will depend on real human connection more than ever before.
The Echo of Worship: What makes in-person ministry irreplaceable, even in a digital world.
Hiring in the Age of AI: How churches and values-based organizations can future-proof their teams by investing in relationally gifted leaders.
Tech-Savvy Leadership: Why every senior leader needs someone on their team who understands the digital landscape—and how to protect your data.
Whether you're excited about AI or overwhelmed by it, this conversation will help you stay grounded in your mission while adapting to the future.
