Explore the possibilities of AI with discernment and grace. The Leader Guide for God and The Machine by Nathan Webb offers thoughtful discussion questions and easy-to-follow session plans for a meaningful four-week study. Designed to complement the book, it includes opening and closing prayers, optional activities, and clear goals for each week—helping your group connect, reflect, and grow together in faith. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has rapidly evolved from a niche topic to an integral part of everyday life. What began as small conveniences has developed into something that shapes the way we work, live, and even worship. For Christians, it can be easy to see AI as something out of science fiction—sparking fear, skepticism, or even dismissal. God and the Machine invites both the curious and the cautious to grapple with profound questions about how and why AI is becoming an integral part of our daily lives. Ignoring it isn’t an option—but neither is abandoning the call to thoughtful discernment. Join Nathan Webb, pastor and self-described “nerd,” as he explores the future of AI and the Church with wisdom, faith, and hope. Together, you’ll consider how to embrace innovation without compromising your ethics and discover the grace-filled possibilities God may be unfolding through this new frontier.
