Print Friendly Version of this pagePrint Get a PDF version of this webpagePDF


The headline reads, "Church in AI takeover as sermon led by ChatGPT in artificial intelligence breakthrough."

Artificial Intelligence tool ChatGPT was used to transform the tradition of a Sunday service at the Violet Crown City Church, a Methodist church in North Austin, Texas.

I mention this because this will not be the last church to turn over its pulpit to AI.

This "progress" is coming to churches across the country.

I will also be talking about the removal of the Speaker of the House on the radio this morning.

Stanley's North Point Community Church in Alpharetta, Ga., hosted what they called the "Unconditional Conference," a two-day event Sept. 28-29 "for parents of LGBTQ+ children and for ministry leaders looking to discover ways to support parents and LGBTQ+ children in their churches," according to the church's website.

Pastor Andy Stanley is one of the speakers.

A prominent evangelical scholar called it a "clear and tragic departure from Biblical Christianity."

He said the lineup of speakers revealed the event's theological position.

North Point Community Church has about 40,00 in attendance each weekend at the main church campus and several satellite campuses.

Pastor Stanley and the church have considerable influence within the Christian community.

The Pharisees and Open Borders

Print Friendly Version of this pagePrint Get a PDF version of this webpagePDF


The Pharisees of the New Testament were known as those who wrapped their righteous robes around themselves while publicly professing their devotion to God and personal virtue.

They were hypocrites.

Jesus noticed their hypocrisy and often addressed it harshly.

The next time a person on the so-called "Christian left"---a Sojourner--- begins explaining to you how open borders is an act of righteous biblical compassion, share the following story with them.

Including what the Bible says about illegal immigration.

"See You At The Pole" is an annual student-led prayer movement that consists of students gathering together in prayer on the fourth Wednesday of September. 

That was yesterday.

Students in elementary, middle school, and high school, as well as university students, participate. 

Adults are also invited to pray at their work, church, or any other location.

More than a million kids met at the flag pole at their school or college yesterday to pray. In front of their friends.

Their prayer was focused on Jeremiah 29:13.
