About The Webinar

In this webinar, we will explore a few practical AI tools you can begin using right away to increase efficiency and support your ministry. But more importantly, we’ll spend time exploring how AI is reshaping children’s emotional, physical, social, cognitive, and spiritual development.

We are ministering to a generation in the midst of a real-time experiment —and we don’t yet fully understand the long-term impact of AI on childhood.  This session will help ministry leaders begin to navigate and shepherd kids and parents through this new AI-shaped world.
