Authentic Wisdom

May 5, 2024 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Proverbs 1:1–7

Artificial Intelligence is poised to transform society. What might this mean for our lives, and our faith? Come to consider how our ancient faith is not only relevant but essential in an AI world.

Authentic Integrity

May 26, 2024 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Romans 1:16–22

AI creates new ethical questions at a time when people do not agree on basic ethics. When people do not agree on right and wrong, how can we agree on what’s right and wrong for AI?

Authentic Hope

May 19, 2024 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • Acts 2:14–21

So many people live with so much fear. They hoard wealth because they fear ruin. They try to control other people because they fear hurt, rejection, and abandonment. Much of the anger and dissension in our nation is driven by fear, and too many people claim power by preying on those fears. The opposite of fear is hope. Our world needs authentic hope.

Authentic Truth

May 12, 2024 • Rev. Dr. Barnabas Sprinkle • John 18:33–38

What is truth? That’s the question of our age. Modernism says truth is objective, factual, separate from the observer. Postmodernism says truth is subjective, relative, in the eye of the beholder. Israeli philosopher Yuval Harari claims that many truths are intersubjective: we decide together what’s true. Now we have AI to tell us what’s true. Have a question? Google it or use ChatGPT. Is truth knowable?
