Developing Faith-Based Entrepreneurship and Bi-Vocational Ministers in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
In this focus group, clergy, pastors, and ministry leaders will be equipped to develop sustainable bi-vocational ministries within an Artificial Intelligence-driven culture. Students will learn how to launch, manage, and scale for-profit enterprises that complement and strengthen their ministry calling while maintaining theological integrity and ethical stewardship. Using the local church as an incubator for community transformation, students will explore entrepreneurship, artificial intelligence, digital ministry, social enterprise, workforce development, and revenue generation models that create financial sustainability for clergy and congregations.
