Aaron Ministries has the vision to see Healthy Leaders leading Healthy Churches that transform communities with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Resourcing Pastors and Christian Leaders through the Healthy Christian Leaders Podcast is one way that we strive to do this.
In this episode of The Healthy Christian Leader, host Dwight Habermehl talks with John Campbell, Director of Development and Technology for Education at Acadia Divinity College, about the ethical and practical challenges of using AI in ministry. Drawing on his background in both IT and pastoral work, John shares how pastors can use AI wisely while maintaining authenticity, transparency, and spiritual discernment. He warns against over-reliance on technology that could limit Christ’s lordship or replace Spirit-led work, emphasizing the importance of understanding how AI functions and using trusted theological sources. Together, they discuss how the Imago Dei reminds us that people—not machines—carry God’s image, and that efficiency should never come at the cost of human connection. John also highlights emerging trends like AI-assisted translation and personalized spiritual tools, encouraging church leaders to stay informed, use technology responsibly, and keep ministry centered on relationship, wisdom, and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
