In this re-air episode of Words of Life, Bernie Dake revisits a conversation with professor, author, and speaker Jason Thacker about the rise of artificial intelligence and what it means for followers of Jesus. Jason offers a biblical perspective on the questions AI raises about technology, humanity, wisdom, and the way we engage an ever-changing world.

Rather than blindly embracing new technology or simply rejecting it, Jason encourages Christians to slow down, ask thoughtful questions, and consider how technology is shaping the way we see God, ourselves, and one another.

What is Jesus asking us to do with the good news we've received?

In the first episode of our new five-week series on the parables of Jesus, Major Cam Henderson takes us to Mark 4 and the parable of the growing seed. Jesus describes a farmer who scatters seed, trusts that it will grow, and eventually returns for the harvest.

We may not understand exactly how God works in someone's heart, or what the future holds, but we can faithfully do our part. As followers of Jesus, we are called to scatter the seed of the gospel wherever we go, trusting God with the growth and the harvest.

Who first shared the good news with you? And who might be waiting for you to share it with them?

Join us for this new series as we take a deeper look at the parables of Jesus and what they reveal about the Kingdom of God and our lives as His people.

Scripture: Mark 4:26-29

Parables of Jesus: Trusting God With the Harvest

What do our kids really need from us during the school year?

As we close our Back to School series, we take a step back from grades, schedules, activities, and expectations to talk about something deeper: what it means to be present for our children as they navigate the challenges of growing up.

Our panel reflects on the hopes and prayers they have for their children this school year, from developing gratitude and kindness to knowing who they are, knowing God, and building healthy friendships. But they also talk honestly about the difficult moments that come with parenting, including stress, disappointment, friendship struggles, and the times when our kids simply need a safe place to fall apart.

This conversation also explores the importance of community. Parents don't have to navigate the school year in isolation. Teachers, counselors, youth leaders, mentors, friends, churches, and other parents can all play an important role in helping children grow.

As this Back to School series comes to a close, join us for an encouraging conversation and a prayer for parents, students, teachers, friendships, and the year ahead.

Parenting Through the Hard Parts of the School Year

What do you do when your child starts asking questions about faith, God, the Bible, or even whether they believe at all anymore?

In this episode of Words of Life, our Back to School series continues with an honest conversation about helping children and teenagers develop a faith that is truly their own. As kids grow older, they encounter new ideas, difficult experiences, outside influences, and questions that can challenge the faith they were taught as children.

For Christian parents, those questions can be scary. But doubt and questions don't necessarily mean a child is walking away from God. In fact, asking questions can be an important part of developing a mature and lasting faith.
