We are excited for next week's Lunch & Learn as we welcome Alesha Baerenwald.

Artificial intelligence is rapidly transforming the way we work, live and connect—but what does that mean for our everyday lives and our faith? Explore how AI is shaping the future of work and society, and learn practical ways to understand and thoughtfully use this technology in your daily life. Discover how innovation, discernment and faith can intersect as we navigate an increasingly AI-driven world.
