Expensive Pal,
My youngsters launched me to Waze to assist me once I’m touring. In the event you’ve used this navigational app, you’ll be aware of listening to the voice say, “Be careful!” It additionally instructs the motive force to “take a break” and to “keep alert.”
Within the Bible, we discover a comparable exhortation the place Paul urges his readers to “be watchful” and “stand agency within the religion” (1 Cor. 16:13).
I not too long ago learn a New York Instances article that reported that spiritual apps and chatbots are rising in recognition as a result of they “promise solutions to the unknowable, encounters with the mysterious, and communion with the divine”—all in about three seconds. Here’s a compelling cause for us to be watchful and stand agency within the reality of God’s Phrase.
Paul was alert to the challenges of his day. The non secular cluelessness of the residents in Athens who worshipped an “unknown God” stirred him to proclaim “the God who made the world and all the pieces in it” (Acts 17:24). He seized the chance to give away to them Jesus, the resurrected Lord and Savior.
I feel we will safely assume that if Paul have been current in the present day, the rising recognition of AI-powered chatbots providing instantaneous solutions to “non secular” questions would ignite a flame in him to achieve as many as potential with the excellent news that “this Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ” (Acts 17:3).
Our crew right here at Reality For Life is equally motivated. For thirty years, we’ve deliberately invested in mainstream media to ship biblical reality to the guts of well-liked tradition. We’re dedicated to bringing God’s unchanging, everlasting Phrase to individuals on the lookout for solutions they will belief by means of no matter channel they’re utilizing, whether or not it’s YouTube, streaming TV, social media, Apple or Spotify podcasts, radio, or another extensively used platform.
We’re desirous to discover new alternatives that develop our attain, permitting our instructing to proceed as a trusted voice of reality that’s simply accessible and free to all.
As you’re conscious, nevertheless, these investments require sources. We depend upon your trustworthy assist and partnership to maneuver ahead. I’m assured that you’ll embrace us in your year-end giving. I feel it’s truthful to say that the digital and radio airwaves are “ripe for harvest.”
With my love within the Lord Jesus,
Alistair
