Ever wondered if artificial intelligence could replace your relationship with God? In this episode of the Ask A Christian Podcast, host Nate dives deep into the alarming trend of AI Jesus chatbots and what it means for authentic faith. We explore the viral "Text With Jesus" app that's gained 150,000+ users and examine whether technology can ever substitute genuine spiritual connection. Plus, we tackle biblical questions that keep Christians and skeptics alike searching for answers: Does Acts 20:28 prove Jesus is God? Who really killed Goliath—David or Elhanan? And what's the deal with Roblox allegedly leading kids into dangerous online communities? We also discuss the increasing intersection of politics and Christianity in America, dive into end-times theology (rapture timing, mark of the beast symbolism vs. reality), and analyze a controversial news story about a trans activist attacked by Muslims—separating fact from media spin. Whether you're a believer with tough questions, a skeptic looking for honest discussion, or just curious about how faith intersects with technology, this episode offers thoughtful biblical perspectives mixed with our signature sardonic humor.
