Young adults ages 18–35 are invited to a two-part series on Digital Discipleship led by Young Adults Connections Pastor Caleb Rhoades. Together we will explore one of the biggest questions facing our generation: How do we follow Jesus in an AI-driven, always-online world?
On April 19, Dr. Justin Gandy, professor at Dallas Baptist University, will share insights on the current state of artificial intelligence, how technology is shaping our thinking, and why it matters for our worldview.
On April 26, Caleb will conclude the series with a practical look at Scripture, exploring what the Bible teaches about discipleship, wisdom, and faithfulness in a digital age.
Bring a friend, come curious, and leave with greater clarity about how to live faithfully in a digital world.
Attendees are also invited to join Caleb for lunch following the April 26 gathering.
