AI May Be Disrupting Your Relationship With God

A lot of what AI offers is seductive because it feels immediate and frictionless. Faith rarely works that way.

The following is excerpted from an online article posted by Relevant

People aren’t just being distracted by technology now. They’re confiding in it. They’re asking it to explain Revelation, build Bible studies, summarize sermons and answer questions they don’t want to ask out loud. A tool that once felt like software now feels strangely relational, and that shift is changing how people seek wisdom, how they process loneliness and how they understand what makes them human in the first place.

A lot of what AI offers is seductive because it feels immediate and frictionless. Faith rarely works that way. Wisdom takes time. Community is messy. Growth usually happens with other people, not apart from them.

AI is changing our relationship with God because it is exposing what many people already wanted: spiritual guidance without waiting and answers without the inconvenience of community. Dickens’ warning is not that Christians should run from technology. It’s that they should refuse to let technology disciple them more deeply than the Church does.
