There seems to be a great effort to adopt AI into business and the professional world. I cannot call my doctors anymore and talk to someone. I have to go through the portal and message their office. This is very unsatisfying. I do not expect to talk to a doctor, but nurses can be a great help.
One thing about our church is that there seems to be little chance of AI replacing our pastor. Our journey through covid showed us how worthless watching video of church is. We need our pastor to be there in person.
One thing I would like to suggest. I think that the pastor behind the pulpit on Sunday ought to be available to talk to during the week. I do not need pastoral counseling every day. But, when I need to talk to a pastor, I want to know that I can call him any time. Being available is as important as being a good preacher.
If you are too busy to be available to talk to, then maybe you are too busy. Preaching is not just a transfer of Biblical information. It is a personal connection between the shepherd and the flock of God over which God made you overseer.
AI will never work in a real church.
