Monday Movement

What does godliness look like in a world shaped by Artificial Intelligence?

In this episode of Monday Movement, Mark Bilton sits down with Josh Phillips, Co-Founder and CEO of Clear AI, to explore how faith, technology, and integrity intersect in today’s fast-changing marketplace.

As a Christian leader at the forefront of AI innovation, Josh shares how he integrates biblical values with cutting-edge technology while keeping people and purpose at the heart of progress. Together, they unpack the deeper questions every believer in business faces: How do we lead ethically? How do we innovate without losing our faith? And how do we use technology to serve God’s Kingdom rather than compete with it?

If you have ever felt the tension between faith and ambition or wondered how to influence culture without compromising your values, this conversation will equip you to lead with wisdom, humility, and conviction.

Tune in and discover how to live out your calling, bring light into leadership, and advance His Kingdom—right where you work.

Faith at work in the vineyard. Mark Bilton talks with Mike Archer of Dawning Day Winery and Altitude701 about calling, resilience, sales, Sabbath, and purpose-led business.
