#451 | Navigating AI in Parenting and Ministry - Arlene Pellicane

The D6 Family Ministry Podcast

In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with Arlene Pellicane to discuss her thoughts on the growing role of artificial intelligence (AI) in our daily lives, especially its impact on children, families, and the church. Arlene is a speaker, host of the Happy Home Podcast, and author of several books including "Parents Rising," "31 Days to a Happy Husband," and "Screen Kids". Arlene has been featured on the Today Show, Fox and Friends, "The Wall Street Journal," and Focus on the Family. She is definitely a “digital guru” for coaching future generations. From curated social media content influencing children’s thoughts to AI-generated conversations replacing human connections, Arlene challenges us to stay informed and proactive when it comes to the use of AI in our lives. She emphasizes the importance of teaching children foundational skills and discernment, especially for the threatening possibility that AI can replace relationships and faith-centered guidance. Arlene shares a variety of resources and strategies for parents and ministry leaders to equip themselves with practical steps to navigate AI’s influence on families and ministries for the future.
