Your staff is already using AI. Your church just doesn't have a policy for it yet.
A ready-to-use AI policy for churches. Open it, add your church's name, adjust it to fit your convictions, and have clear guardrails in place before the end of the day. Editable in Word or Google Docs.
AI didn't ask permission.
It's already in your church.
Not because anyone went rogue. Because it's easy, it's everywhere, and nobody's drawn any lines yet. Here's what that looks like in real churches.
A volunteer pastes last week's prayer list into ChatGPT to "clean up the wording." Names, needs, and all.
An AI-written devotional lands in the bulletin, and nobody's quite sure whether that's okay.
A staff member uses AI to draft a sensitive note to a grieving family, and no one reviews it first.
None of it is malicious. It's just happening without guardrails. A clear policy fixes that now, before it becomes something you have to clean up later.
11 sections. One afternoon.
A policy your whole team can stand behind.

Straight from the template.
Guiding Principle
From the policy
"A person is always responsible. Every AI-assisted output has a human owner who reviews it, approves it, and answers for it. 'The AI wrote it' is never an excuse."
A Clear Line
From the policy
"Never enter prayer requests with names, counseling notes, giving records, or anything about minors into public AI tools."
On Sermons
From the policy
"AI may assist with research. But preparing and preaching God's Word is a spiritual responsibility that must not be outsourced to a machine."
Every line is yours to keep or change. This is a starting point, not the final word.
A policy protects your people.
Get yours in two minutes.
It's free, it's editable, and it's built for churches, not corporations. Add your name, adjust it to your convictions, and you're done.
