Is Religion Being Shaped by AI? – 5/3 11:00am
Artificial intelligence is no longer a distant technological curiosity — it’s reshaping how we work, communicate, learn, and make decisions. The church is not exempt from that reshaping. On Sunday May 3 (11am-12:15pm) we’ll welcome Rev. Dr. Andy Morgan as our guest presenter via Zoom for a special Adult Education session entitled “How Religion Is Being Shaped by Artificial Intelligence.”
Andy has an M.Div. and M.A. of Christian Education from Union Presbyterian Seminary, and a Doctor of Ministry from Candler School of Theology at Emory University. He is the Director of Family Faith Formation at First Presbyterian Church of Knoxville, TN, serves as a spirituality consultant for an AI startup, and has become one of the PC(USA)’s leading voices on the ethical use of AI in ministry and congregational life. He’s also a good friend of Pastor TJ.
Theater & Theology – 4/28 at 7:00pm
Grace and law. Redemption and relentless pursuit. The dignity of the poor and the corruption of power. Les Misérables has been wrestling with these questions since Victor Hugo put them on the page in 1862… and they’re just as applicable today.
Join Pastor TJ for a special “Theater & Theology” conversation on Tuesday April 28 from 7:00-8:30pm in the Cana Room for a lively conversation about the theological and ethical considerations of Les Mis.
Whether you’ve seen the Broadway Tour (coming to the Morrison Center April 21-26!), watched the film, read the novel, or just know that you’re supposed to cry during “Bring Him Home,” you’re ready for this conversation. All are welcome.
Jesus Was a Migrant Documentary – 4/26 at 11am
Join us on Sunday April 26 during the Adult Education Class, as we show a new documentary, Jesus Was a Migrant. This 30 minute documentary was produced by bestselling author and historian Dr. Jemar Tisby, and follows him to the U.S.-Mexico border to examine what American Christianity has done for the migrant. The documentary helps us to ask the question “What does our faith actually require?”
