We need your prayer and financial support as we build a conversational AI chatbot and community for Christian apologetics. We accept the anointing to get this right. We are a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, and your financial gift is tax deductible. Your donation will go directly toward covering operational costs as we develop the prototype of our flagship AI agent.

Apologist: someone who speaks or writes in defense of someone or thing that is typically controversial, unpopular, or subject to criticism.

"In your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience, so that those who speak maliciously against your good behavior in Christ may be ashamed of their slander." ~ 1 Peter 3:15-16 (NIV)

The Mission Field is Moving Online

Churches are closing faster than they are opening. Young adults are turning their back to God. Post-pandemic church attendance is low; many people decided not to come back or prefer to worship online [Pew: 1, 2]. We hope that this endeavor will serve as a tool to increase the engagement and relevancy of Christianity on the modern stage.

Other religions are ahead of us in promoting their ideologies. Every day it gets harder to catch up with competing AI on a double exponential growth curve. AI is more powerful than any other major technological advancement because it can train itself endlessly.

We need to meet non-believers where they are and speak to them in ways they respond to — using modern, visually appealing digital products that present God’s truth.

Now is the Time to Act

Western society is already being influenced by AIs that promote secular ideals
Each successive generation knows less about the fundamentals of Christianity
Non-believers are sometimes alienated and intimidated by judgmental Christians
Believers and non-believers alike can get wrapped up in secondary issues instead of focusing on Jesus

Our Solution Will:

Utilize AI as a sharp tool for the Kingdom rather than fear it
Distill and emphasize the fundamentals of Christianity to believers and non-believers
Facilitate accurate, immediate, candid conversations anywhere in the world, on demand
Uphold the Christian faith as AI redefines Western culture
Sharpen the knowledge of Christians to more effectively witness to non-believers
Preserve the long history of orthodox Christian thought in an easy-to-use interface

The Christian Apologist AI distills and emphasizes the fundamentals of Christianity to anyone, anywhere. The conversations our AI has with the public will always be accurate, immediate, candid, and worldwide.
