   Two Readings of the Bible: Death as natural vs death as curse (Clarke Scheibe)

   In the tension between evolutionary theories and creationist accounts, some have felt that one solution to bridge the divide is to see Adam and Eve as two hominins given an awareness of the divine ("breathed in life") and thus becoming images of God and representatives of modern humanity. Yet this solution isn't as simple as it first seems. When it is drawn out, it requires a reinterpretation of crucial aspects to Scriptural claims. This talk will examine this (often naturalistic) reinterpretation of the biblical trajectory and ask if the traditional view can still be defended.

   Genuine Connection or Simulated Emotion? The Idolatrous Allure of Large Language Models (Robb Ludwick, Dutch L'Abri)

   Certain forms of AI are increasingly being experienced as personal contact. In a time of growing anxiety and loneliness, more and more people are turning to LLMs for easy and convincing companionship and advice. What will help me more? Something that mimics personality, sycophantically made in my image? Or someone truly ‘Other’, in whose image I am made, offering true sympathy and the challenge of healing and growth? In the Bible this very contrast is literally the difference between an idol and the true Creator and Redeemer. What might that mean for us today?

   Grief and the Psalms (Liz Snell)

   Grief was once thought of as a linear process that helps us to "get over" loss. But as the book of Psalms shows us, grief is an ongoing dialogue between loss and redemption. In this talk, we'll explore how the grief process can help us dwell more deeply in God's goodness. The Copyright for all material on the podcast is held by L'Abri Fellowship.
