Write your group's AI policy in about ten minutes.
Twelve questions about how your community actually uses AI and what it believes. You leave with a formal policy or lighter staff guidelines in your organization's name, a readiness score, and the decisions still waiting for your leaders.

What your policy will cover
- FoundationsWho the policy covers and the convictions it rests on
- Ministry boundariesWhat stays human, and where AI belongs in preaching
- Data and toolsWhat never goes into AI, and which tools are approved
- TransparencyWhat you disclose, and how you guard accuracy and copyright
- GovernanceWho is accountable, how people learn it, and when it's reviewed
Most pastors want AI guidelines. Few of their churches have them.
In a Barna survey of U.S. Protestant pastors, 94% said churches should have guidelines for using AI. Only 4% said their own church has a formal policy, 17% have informal guidance, and 79% have nothing written down.
