Navigating AI's Role in Faith Faith Debate: Sunday, August 23rd, 2026 (08/30/26 on 930 WFMD in Frederick, Maryland) The Faith Debate digs into AI from a Christian vantage point. What is this technology at its root? Are fears about it due to faithful discernment, or cultural panic? If Christians disengage from "Artificial Intelligence", who fills the vacuum to train the machines, and shape the values baked into systems influencing billions of people? From the specter of end-times speculation to cultural withdrawal, can the church be let off the hook with easy answers? This isn't a conversation about gadgets, but rather about dominion, discipleship, and how the people of God can best show up where it counts. You're invited to listen, and then decide where you stand. This episode is part two of a five-part conversation (piggybacking on a two-part AI discussion from earlier in the year).

What does it mean to finish the Christian life well? Dave Jenkins explains that faithful endurance is not perfection or self-reliance, but continuing to trust and follow Christ through every season by God's sustaining grace. Drawing from 2 Timothy 4:7 and Hebrews 12:1, this episode calls believers to remain faithful, endure hardship, fix their eyes on Christ, and rest in the faithfulness of God.

In the feeding of the 5,000, Jesus teaches His disciples essential lessons about what it means to be used by God. Ministry begins with compassion, accepts responsibility, develops others, and trusts God rather than human resources. We are not the producers. We are the distributors. God supplies what is needed. Our responsibility is to faithfully use what He places in our hands and allow His provision to flow through us to others.

This sermon explores Mark 6:30-52 to reveal Jesus' divinity through the miracles of feeding the five thousand and walking on water. The preacher argues that these events identify Jesus as the God of Exodus who provides inexhaustible grace and tramples the waves, yet often leaves observers with hardened hearts due to a lack of spiritual understanding. The central message urges listeners to move beyond merely witnessing miracles to softening their hearts in worshipful trust. By recognizing Christ's infinite mercy and presence, believers are invited to find complete satisfaction in His unending love rather than relying on their own limited resources. The passage serves as a call to deepen faith and acknowledge Jesus not just as a miracle worker, but as the sovereign Lord who rescues and sustains His people.

We find the commission of the church only in the Word of God.

Ecclesiastes 11 teaches us to live faithfully and courageously while trusting God with the uncertainties of the future. Dave Jenkins explains why wisdom acts without demanding perfect certainty, accepts the limits of human understanding, refuses to be controlled by fear, and receives life as a gift from God. We may not know what tomorrow holds, but through Jesus Christ, we know the One who sovereignly holds our future.
