Faith Conversation Videos

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how we create, communicate, and make meaning. In this Faith Conversation, Rev. Dr. Dongwoo Lee explores the theological questions these changes raise for human identity, spiritual practice, and the life of the church.

Drawing on Alfred North Whitehead’s process philosophy, Dr. Lee considers how people, technology, and the wider world continually shape one another. He explores how a theology grounded in relationship might inform Christian responses to AI, with attention to human dignity, responsibility, and the flourishing of community and creation.

Through examples ranging from AI-generated art and religious guidance to translation and worship, the presentation examines questions of creativity, authorship, spiritual authority, and what makes religious experience meaningful. These examples invite reflection on how technology shapes our relationships and our capacity to attend to God and our neighbors.

Recorded October 11, 2026, as part of the Faith Conversations series at Westwood Presbyterian Church (PCUSA), Los Angeles.

Celebrating another Season of Faith Conversations

This year’s Faith Conversations invited us to listen deeply at the intersection of faith and public life. Organized and sponsored through the faithful efforts of WPC’s Adult Education Committee, these gatherings created meaningful space for learning, reflection, and dialogue across some of the most pressing questions facing the church and world today.

This season’s conversations include:

• Coach Cori Close — on faith, leadership, vocation, and the pursuit of an “uncommon” life.

• Rev. Shelvis Smith-Mather — on South Sudan, peacemaking, and the human cost of war.

• Dan Redfeld — on the beauty, history, and meaning of beloved Christmas music.

• Dr. Daniel Wehrenfennig — on navigating congregational change with wisdom, courage, and care.

• Dr. Katharine Hayhoe — on Christians, climate, and faithful action in a changing world.

• Dr. Reinhard Krauss — on the rise and danger of Christian nationalism.
