"AI, Fake Church, and Traps We Can Fall Into" dives into how pastors, small group leaders, and everyday Christians are using tools like ChatGPT, and where it quietly crosses the line into counterfeit spirituality, hollow sermons, and “plastic” discipleship.

Dave Leake and guest Jordan Kolarik unpack the tension between convenience and true spiritual formation, asking if AI is short‑circuiting our time in Scripture, dependence on the Holy Spirit, and the call to be authentic, “analog” disciples in a digital age.

If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s okay to use AI for devotionals, Bible study, or preaching, this conversation will help you discern the difference between helpful tools and fake church.
