In a world shaped by artificial intelligence and rapid technological advancements, how do we navigate the digital age while remaining deeply rooted in faith? This conference invites students and adults to explore how technology is forming us — and how we, in turn, can shape technology for human flourishing. Through engaging discussions, hands-on workshops, and inspiring presentations, we’ll uncover practical ways to use AI and digital tools wisely, with a Christ-centered perspective. Join us as we explore how we can build a future where technology enriches the human spirit rather than diminishes it. Let’s create a digital age defined not only by intelligence—but by wisdom as we seek to follow Jesus in a tech-driven world.
