The Shocking Place Young Christians Go for Spiritual Advice - Spiritually Fit Today

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and guest Braden Pedersen. In this episode we explore new research showing many men in their 20s and 30s are turning to AI for spiritual questions. Braden explains why anonymity and perceived safety make AI appealing, and Arnie and Braden warn about the danger of trusting confident-sounding answers over Scripture. Our scripture for reflection: Proverbs 18:1 — "Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment." 4 R Action Steps Read — Read Proverbs 18:1 aloud and note any phrase that sticks out to you. Reflect — Ask: What am I hiding? Where do I turn for answers first — a person, a phone, or prayer? Respond — Name the one question you've been carrying alone. Tell one real person you can trust that question out loud and notice how isolation changes. Reveal — Share this passage and your takeaway with someone you trust; invite them to pray with you or hold you accountable.
