AI is great to substitute for a seminary library in sermon prep … I do suggest telling it to not make anything up or fill in any scholarly gaps with guesses … but if you want a quick linguistic comparison of Hebrew and Greek and Aramaic and how familiar passages may have been heard differently than to our ears … or the local significance of a town in Jesus’ day etc …. it can give that vital angle or hook for a deeper meaning or a new insight … to my mind that allows us to make stronger messages…

Love the paragraph on sermon prep! A thoughtful article, thank you!
Amen! You know I agree with you :).
AI highlights what's so wonderful about being human - our ability to love and be loved.
Our *mission* to love and be loved.
It is the proof of why our work in ministry is so important - LOVE is our business. And it comes from God.
