For Michael Rhodes, work is more than a job. It is an opportunity for God to shape who we are.

What does faithful leadership require as artificial intelligence reshapes how we work, learn, create, and make decisions?

Join Leaders in the Arena for a conversation with Dr. Andrew Yuengert, Professor of Economics at Pepperdine University, and Dr. Michael Rhodes, Dean of Faculty and Lecturer in Old Testament at Carey Baptist College, guest hosted by Dr. Lance Wescher of Covenant College.

Drawing from economics, theology, Scripture, and Christian social thought, the conversation explores human dignity, work, wisdom, and flourishing in the age of AI. The guests also reflect on themes raised in Pope Leo XIV’s encyclical on artificial intelligence, including the need to protect the human person, resist reducing people to tools of technology, and approach AI as a moral—not merely technical—question.
