    Since ChatGPT burst into the public consciousness in 2022, AI has thoroughly infiltrated everyday life. Machines can now take on work once thought to be solely the domain of human beings--from writing college essays to composing worship music. How should Christians respond to this brave new technology? 
     
    In this accessible introduction to AI, Sean O'Callaghan and Paul Hoffman explore its social and ethical impacts for ministry and teaching. The authors shed light on the biblical vision for human flourishing--and on how AI can help or hinder that flourishing. Avoiding both alarmism and uncritical acceptance, O'Callaghan and Hoffman offer resources and practical tools for using AI in our classrooms and congregations. 
     
    AI can write a generic three-point sermon, but it cannot replace an authentic encounter between humans and the divine. In a time of cultural confusion, O'Callaghan and Hoffman encourage readers to embrace the clarity found in the gospel. The book includes a foreword by A. Trevor Sutton.

    Palliative care is a specialized approach to medical care that focuses on improving the quality of life for individuals facing serious, chronic, or life-limiting illnesses. Unlike curative treatments aimed at eradicating disease, palliative care prioritizes symptom management, pain relief, and holistic support for both patients and their families. This field of healthcare is rooted in compassion, emphasizing dignity, comfort, and individualized care tailored to the needs of each patient. 
    The principles of palliative care are guided by a patient-centered philosophy that considers physical, emotional, social, and spiritual well-being. It is not limited to end-of-life situations but can be integrated alongside curative treatments at any stage of a serious illness. Patients suffering from conditions such as cancer, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), kidney disease, and neurodegenerative disorders like Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s can benefit from palliative interventions. The goal is to enhance quality of life, alleviate distress, and provide support to both the patient and their loved ones. 
    A defining feature of palliative care is its interdisciplinary approach. A team of healthcare professionals—including physicians, nurses, social workers, chaplains, and therapists—collaborates to address the complex needs of patients. This holistic model ensures that care extends beyond the physical symptoms of illness to include emotional and psychological support. Effective communication is essential in palliative care, as clinicians must navigate sensitive conversations about prognosis, treatment goals, and advance care planning. By fostering open dialogue, healthcare providers empower patients to make informed decisions that align with their values and preferences.
