AI, The Church, and The Questions We’re Just Beginning to Ask
Recently, I read a few Barna articles about artificial intelligence, looking at what Christians are thinking and how church leaders are responding to this evolving reality we all find ourselves in. The insights were encouraging but also unsettling - a dichotomy I found in most of the research highlights.
Christianity is the choice for Gen-Z
Could it be true? Is Gen Z really leading a resurgence in church attendance? From the UK to the US—and even here in Canada—data points to a surprising and hopeful trend: young adults are re-engaging with the Church. Reports from the Bible Society, Barna, and CTV’s Your Morning suggest that younger generations are attending more regularly than their elders—a reversal of decades-long patterns. But what does this mean for our congregations, our rhythms, and our readiness to welcome them? At Ministry Forum, we’re digging into these questions and listening closely to those ministering with the Next Generation. We want to know—are you seeing it too? Let’s keep the conversation going.
