Ed Stetzer Challenges Believers To Think and Act ‘Christianly’ When It Comes to AI Dr. Ed Stetzer spoke to ChurchLeaders at Gloo’s third AI Hackathon, which took place Oct. 8-10 in Boulder, Colorado.

At Gloo’s 2025 AI Hackathon, Dr. Ed Stetzer urged Christians to stop standing on the sidelines of innovation. Instead of condemning technology, he said, the church must lead by creating tools that reflect truth, wisdom, and faith in action. churchleaders.com/news/2206363...
