Episode Synopsis

Is AI something to fear…or a tool you can use wisely with your family and faith? In this episode of Vitality Conversations, Rana sits down with career coach and leadership facilitator Debbie Goldbarth to unpack what artificial intelligence really is and how it’s already woven into our everyday lives—from maps and search engines to Canva, Planning Center, and more. Together they talk about why AI is “just a tool,” how to steward it like any other technology, and the ethical guardrails believers can use to stay grounded in God’s truth. Debbie walks through the A.B.I.D.E. framework—Accountability, Bias awareness, Image of God, Dependence on God, and Edification—to help you filter how you and your kids engage with AI for school, work, creativity, and even fun family nights. If you’ve felt overwhelmed, curious, or a little nervous about AI, this life-giving conversation will help you move from fear to discernment—so you can stay relevant to today’s culture without compromising your values, and keep living on mission in a digital world.
