A short YouTube monologue by Justin R. Lester reflecting on AI-written sermons for Easter. Lester warns that AI can be a helpful tool but should not replace personal, Spirit-led sermon-writing; he emphasizes Jesus’ enduring charisma and urges ministers to craft sermons personally while allowing AI to enhance— not dictate—them.

I actually had TBT to write me a sermon for Easter. And you know what it told me? It said, jesus, the original influencer with resurrection. Riz. And it was as cheesy as Faith Book used to be back in the day. See, here's the thing. AI can help you. But remember, it's a hammer. It's not the house. Jesus does pull people. He draws sinners. He draws haters. He draws doubters. He still got the sauce 2,000 years later. He's still got Riz. He's got all the charisma you can possibly think of. But don't think you have to try to be popular to promote Jesus. Jesus doesn't need our help promoting him. He's died for it all. May we have sermons this Easter that are not written by AI to reach particular people, but are written by you to reach those. God has called you to. Go be empowered. Go have some fun. And may AI enhance what God has told you, not be what a computer's told you. God bless you.
