In this episode of What’s the World Coming To, Ken Ortize sits down with Dr. Drew Dickens, a theological anthropologist whose work explores the intersection of faith, technology, and spiritual formation.
As artificial intelligence becomes woven into everyday life, Christians are facing new tensions around authority, discernment, and spiritual practice. Rather than reacting in fear or uncritical enthusiasm, this conversation moves into deeper theological territory, examining embodiment, silence, prayer, and the loss of friction in modern spiritual life.
Ken and Drew discuss AI’s growing presence in Christian spaces, the dangers of artificial intimacy, and the ways technology can subtly reshape how we listen, reflect, and relate to God and one another. The discussion highlights why mystery, struggle, community, and stillness remain essential to an authentic and grounded faith.
This episode offers a thoughtful, grounded exploration for anyone navigating faith in an increasingly automated world.
