Artificial intelligence is changing the way we work, learn, and even engage with Scripture—but what does that mean for small group leaders? Can AI actually help with Bible study preparation, or does it pose more risks than rewards? In this episode of Disciple-making in Community, host Ken Braddy sits down with Dr. Dwayne McCrary to discuss the role of AI in group ministry. Together, they explore the potential benefits of AI, the ethical concerns surrounding its use, and how leaders can leverage technology without sacrificing personal study and spiritual discernment.

The discussion covers best practices for utilizing AI effectively, practical applications for small group leaders, and the risks of over-reliance on technology. Dwayne shares insights on how to navigate AI ethically, ensuring that it remains a tool to support rather than replace genuine disciple-making efforts. As churches continue to adapt to an evolving digital landscape, this episode offers valuable guidance for leaders looking to integrate AI thoughtfully and responsibly.
