From Babel to AI: A Devotional Awakening to Faith, Identity, and Technology is a spiritual call to remember what it means to be human in an age obsessed with machines. As artificial intelligence and transhumanism reshape how we live, think, and define ourselves, this book offers a timely and soul-stirring response: not fear, but faith; not escape, but awakening.
Rooted in Scripture and framed by accessible theological reflection, each chapter guides readers to reclaim their God-given identity as image-bearers, crafted with purpose and breath. Through vivid writing, cultural insight, and devotional prayers, readers are invited into sacred resistance—choosing wonder over control, presence over performance, and Christ over the counterfeit gods of progress.
Whether used personally or in community, this book is a guide for those longing to stay grounded in truth while navigating a world of digital temptation and technological drift. It speaks to anyone who senses the erosion of awe, the pull of distraction, and the need to rise again into the light of Christ.
Even in the shadow of the tower, the image of God still speaks.
