Publisher's Description
Isn't artificial intelligence amazing? It writes. It answers questions. It solves the problems of the world. Surely, artificial intelligence can accomplish anything. It can do anybody's job, right? Perhaps even the job of your pastor? Meet Pastor Matthew Love. He's charming. He's dressed like a professional. His preaching is uplifting. Even if he is an android, what could ever be wrong with a pastor who always says: "Hello. I'm Pastor Matthew Love and I'm here to tell you that Jesus loves you"?

“The ethics of artificial intelligence (AI) and the state of leadership in the evangelical church, two seemingly unrelated yet controversial issues, collide in this imaginative novel. R. J. Mathieu portrays a delightfully disastrous outcome in a scenario where human leadership loses sight of its mission by relying on technology to do the hard work of ministry. This book is sure to further theological discussion of these topics.”
