Balancing Tech and Trust in Today's Churches.

from If I Had More Time... Hosted by Rhythm Church

Jeff and George share updates about their space and discuss trying a different episode format focused on trends in the church and faith. They examine research showing many practicing Christians use AI and some would trust it for spiritual growth, while both Christians and pastors worry about AI misinterpreting scripture; they emphasize AI can be a helpful assistant when used carefully, prefer closed-loop tools, and stress reading, prayer, community, and verifying sources. They then talk about Gen Z’s shift toward digital, audio, and video Bible engagement, warning that clips and fragments can reduce context, attention, and sustained learning, while affirming the value of a physical Bible and fewer distractions. Finally, they explore findings that megachurches are growing post-pandemic while smaller churches are more trusted, and discuss what large and small churches can learn from each other. #ChurchLeadership #IfIHadMoreTime #ChristianPodcast #FaithConversations #RhythmChurch
