Faith, AI, and the Courage to Lead with Kary Oberbrunner

from The Heidi St. John Podcast · host Heidi St. John

AI is changing everything—from how we work to how we relate to one another—but the Church was never called to hide. Today I’m joined by my friend Kary Oberbrunner for a timely conversation about faith, technology, entrepreneurship, and why safety can’t be our highest pursuit. We talk about artificial intimacy, raising discerning kids in a digital age, the cost of authentic leadership, and why bold faith has always required risk. This is a hope-filled reminder that God’s people are called to engage the culture with wisdom, courage, and truth.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.
