AI in Faith

Faith × Technology

A weekly conversation on what artificial intelligence means for Christians, pastors, and people of faith — from Bible study with ChatGPT to the theology of machine conscience.

About the show

What AI in Faith is actually about

AI in Faith is a weekly podcast about what it means to be faithful in the age of artificial intelligence. Co-hosted by Jaeden Schafer and Conor Grennan — longtime AI podcasters and people of faith — the show is for pastors, elders, parents, and anyone in a church who wants to think clearly about the tools reshaping their lives and congregations. Recent episodes have dug into Anthropic’s on-staff Catholic priest and what a “conscience” for AI could look like, whether AI will replace pastors, and how to use ChatGPT as a practical Bible-study companion. Expect honest theology, real pastoral questions, and no hype.
