Where are people going with their biggest questions about life? Google? A friend? A pastor? Or are they now asking AI? And when someone asks, “Who is Jesus?”, what answer will they find?
AI is rapidly changing how people search for answers, communicate and explore some of life’s biggest questions. For Christians, that raises an important question: could AI become a useful tool for evangelism without replacing the human relationships, authenticity and work of the Holy Spirit that sit at its heart? In this episode of The Win Win Evangelism Podcast, Tina Waldrom speaks with author, speaker and digital transformation expert Natchi Lazarus about what it means to share Jesus in a world increasingly shaped by artificial intelligence.
From people asking AI spiritual questions to churches creating content that can help shape the answers people discover online, Natchi explores both the opportunities and the challenges ahead. He explains why Christians don’t need to choose between rejecting AI and blindly embracing it. Meaningful Christian content matters more than ever. He also emphasised “spirit-led intelligence” or remaining led by the Holy Spirit no matter how sophisticated technology becomes.
