What You'll Be Able to Do

You won't just understand AI. You'll use it.

The course moves in two parts: first AI for your own life, then AI for the church you lead. Here's what you'll walk away able to do.

Part 1 · In Your Own Life
  • Have real, useful conversations with AI, and know exactly what's safe to share
  • Write prompts that get genuinely helpful answers instead of generic mush
  • Take one task you do every week and do it in a fraction of the time
  • Use AI in your devotions, prayer, and witness without ever outsourcing your faith
  • Run anything AI helped you make through a simple integrity check before it goes out
  • Build a personal rule of life for AI that holds up as the tools keep changing
Part 2 · In Your Church & Ministry
  • Make the case for leading on AI now instead of waiting it out
  • Put AI to work in sermon prep, admin, and communication, while holding the red lines
  • Take honest positions on the hard questions: disclosure, deepfakes, AI companions, bias
  • Give your congregation a way to think about AI without having to be the expert
  • Apply the TRUST framework and write your church's own one-page AI philosophy

Built by someone who has trained 1,500 Christians to do this

Don Barger is the Director of Innovation and Artificial Intelligence at the International Mission Board, where he leads the organization's global AI strategy. Over the past two years, he has trained more than 1,500 Christians in how to use AI faithfully, ethically, and with Kingdom impact.

This isn't a theory class. It's what he's learned actually works when Christians come to AI with a biblical worldview from the start, not bolted on at the end.

Christians have been here before. The printing press looked dangerous. So did radio, so did the internet — and every one of them ended up carrying the gospel farther than anyone expected. AI is your generation's turn at that same decision.
