True North for Church Leaders: A Modern-day Epistle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is revolutionizing the way we approach a multitude of tasks, even within church leadership. Our very own Healthy Church Staff Podcast has provided a depth of wisdom and resources over 350+ episodes. Recently, we fed this wealth of information to an AI algorithm, ChatGPT, and sought to distill the essence of this compendium into an epistle.
Understanding the Epistle Style
The term epistle stems from Biblical literature, denoting a letter offering wisdom, encouragement, or correction. Descending from this tradition, we asked the AI to craft a fresh, modern-day epistle. The outcome was not only interesting but surprisingly rich and reflective of the values we nourish within our ministry and church staff.
The resulting document reads like scripture, not in its divinity, but in form. Although this modern-day epistle was crafted by an algorithm, the heart of it is very much steeped in the lessons, challenges, and experiences discussed on our podcast.
Introducing: True North for Church Leaders
This AI-crafted epistle, aptly titled 'True North for Church Leaders', encompasses the collective wisdom of 350+ podcast episodes. Written in four chapters, it provides guidance and encouragement for church leaders persisting through various stages of church health, burnout, and renewal. This modern-day epistle is not an attempt at scripture, a manifesto, or a leadership strategy – it is simply an encouragement and call to action for those still showing up, still carrying the weight, and believing their work matters.
