This project examined the role of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in shaping religious programmes in Living Faith Church Worldwide and the ethical concerns connected with its use in church activities. The study aimed to examine how AI is being used in religious programs in Winners’ Chapel, its effects on church activities, and the ethical issues associated with its application. The thesis adopted a qualitative research method. Data were collected through document analysis, observation of modern technological practices, and the use of published interviews and academic materials related to AI in religion. Relevant books, journal articles, church publications, online materials, and previous studies were also reviewed to provide a broad understanding of the subject. Thematic analysis was used to examine the information collected and to identify important patterns and themes related to AI in church programs. Findings from the research revealed that AI is gradually becoming part of modern religious practice in Winners’ Chapel through television evangelism, radio broadcasting, online streaming, mobile applications, social media communication, and administrative management. The researcher found that AI improves communication, sermon preparation, translation, media production, teaching, and church administration. It also showed that AI can support children’s ministry, adult Bible studies, and global outreach programs such as Shiloh. However, the thesis further revealed major ethical concerns, including privacy and data protection, algorithmic bias, overdependence on technology, reduction of human interaction, questions about spiritual authenticity, and the possibility of replacing important human roles in ministry.
