How do these ideas destabilize, disrupt, rewire the power narrative?
46:18
I think when it comes to the power narrative, I think the, the, you have an older view of just saying, "Hey, there's no problem for authorities to have power.
46:30
Let them have it." Then you have the newer view of saying, all power is bad.
46:34
You're not supposed to have it, and we need to disempower the powerful.
46:40
And I, what I find biblically fascinating when you look at Jesus and you look at the Bible's use of power is it doesn't ignore it and say, "Hey, power is all.
46:49

46:49
Just let the powerful have the power." And it doesn't say, "Hey, uh, all power is bad.

W- what do you think AI is doing to those big cultural narratives of our age? I- is it deepening them? Is it challenging them? Is it giving us different ones? Is it fulfilling them? How, how is the cultural narrative discourse shifting with AI?
36:08
Yeah.
36:09
I mean, this is a great, great question.

There's these, um...
36:23
Our, our cultural stories aren't changing with AI.
36:28
I think they're just accelerating them and showing Uh, both how the, the good things are actually getting, in some ways, better 'cause we're able to, um...
39:38
Where should I start?" And so w-what Bible passages have you found particularly helpful in thinking about AI, and how have they helped you to, to find that, that biblical posture in our, in our current cultural moment?

Welcome to our session here on understanding the, [lips smack] um, stories that secular culture tells us.
3:30
I'm glad that you are here, and, and, uh, our time is limited, so I'm gonna try to jump straight in.
3:35
What I wanna do is I wanna do a little more of an abbreviated, uh, uh, presentation to you, because I think that there's a value to kind of walk through and hear some questions.
3:44
Apparently, I was told that the reception of the mic is limited, so if you just sort of raise your hand when we get to that time, and I'll try to call on you, and I'll try to repeat for the recording.
3:54
Um, I think those questions can be heard and, and said, and I think it'll be good for all of us.
3:58
But I think it's a helpful way to kind of dialogue, but also work through some of these stories.
