Happy Friday, everyone! This week I'm back to my usual four updates, and while they may seem disconnected on the surface, you'll see some bigger threads running through them all.All seem to indicate we're outsourcing to AI faster than we can supervise, are layering automation on top of bias without addressing the root issues, and letting convenience override discernment in places that carry life-or-death stakes.With that, let's get into it.⸻Stanford's AI Therapy Study Shows We're Automating HarmNew research from Stanford tested how today's top LLMs are handling crisis counseling, and the results are disturbing. From stigmatizing mental illness to recommending dangerous actions in crisis scenarios, these AI therapists aren't just “not ready”… they are making things worse. I walk through what the study got right, where even its limitations point to deeper risk, and why human experience shouldn't be replaced by synthetic empathy.⸻Microsoft Says You'll Be Training AI Agents Soon, Like It or NotIn Microsoft's new 2025 Work Trend Index, 41% of leaders say they expect their teams to be training AI agents in the next five years. And 36% believe they'll be managing them. If you're hearing “agent boss” and thinking “not my problem,” think again. This isn't a future trend; it's already happening. I break down what AI agents really are, how they'll change daily work, and why organizations can't just bolt them on without first measuring human readiness.⸻Workday's Bias Lawsuit Could Reshape AI HiringWorkday is being sued over claims that its hiring algorithms discriminated against candidates based on race, age, and disability status. But here's the real issue: most companies can't even explain how their AI hiring tools make decisions. I unpack why this lawsuit could set a critical precedent, how leaders should respond now, and why blindly trusting your recruiting tech could expose you to more than just bad hires. Unchecked, it could lead to lawsuits you never saw coming.⸻Military AI Is Here, and We're Not Ready for the Moral TradeoffsFrom autonomous fighter jet simulations to OpenAI defense contracts, military AI is no longer theoretical; it's operational. The U.S. Army is staffing up with Silicon Valley execs. AI drones are already shaping modern warfare. But what happens when decisions of life and death get reduced to “green bars” on output reports? I reflect on why we need more than technical and military experts in the room and what history teaches us about what's lost when we separate force from humanity.⸻If this episode was helpful, would you share it with someone? Also, leave a rating, drop a comment, and follow for future breakdowns that go beyond the headlines and help you lead with clarity in the AI age.—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, Christopher Lind unpacks four critical developments in AI this week. First, he starts by breaking down Stanford's research on AI therapists and the alarming shortcomings in how large language models handle mental health crises. Then, he explores Microsoft's new workplace forecast, which predicts a sharp rise in agent-based AI tools and the hidden demands this shift will place on employees. Next, he analyzes the legal storm brewing around Workday's recruiting AI and what this could mean for hiring practices industry-wide. Finally, he closes with a timely look at the growing militarization of AI and why ethical oversight is being outpaced by technological ambition.Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction01:05 – Episode Overview02:15 – Stanford's Study on AI Therapists18:23 – Microsoft's Agent Boss Predictions30:55 – Workday's AI Bias Lawsuit43:38 – Military AI and Moral Consequences52:59 – Final Thoughts and Wrap-Up#StanfordAI #AItherapy #AgentBosses #MicrosoftWorkTrend #WorkdayLawsuit #AIbias #MilitaryAI #AIethics #FutureOfWork #AIstrategy #DigitalLeadership

It's pride month, and LGBTQ+ conversations are at their height. So how do you handle those conversations? To help, Scott, Chris, and Bree answer a listener's question, “I have many non Christian friends, a number of them are gay. I've made it clear to all my friends and coworkers that I'm a Christian, I talk about my faith often, and I pray that my life's example shows God's truth. I have even clearly stated to my gay friends previously that I believe being gay is a sin. So my question is this, how should I handle hearing about their sinful lives and how often should I be re-stating my opinion on their sin?”In this episode, you'll learn:How often to have these tricky conversationsWhat to say…and what not to sayBiblical principles to keep in mindWe hope this episode equips you with the relationships in your life and helps you be a light for Christ & truth!Ask a Mailbag QuestionFollow Us on InstagramVisit Our Website

We are co-workers in God's service. . . . — 1 Corinthians 3:9 On Sundays as I stand in the pulpit at Roseland Christian Ministries, I see DeWitt Casey at the congas to my left, Ryan Krestel at the drums, and David Walker to my right at the keyboard. Ryan and I have been friends for 30 years. Every Sunday, the four of us serve at one another's sides, leading the service. We've led hundreds of services together. David and I have also ministered at funerals in some of the darkest circumstances—for victims of gun violence, overdose, and more. When David's brother was killed, I officiated at the funeral, and when my sons' mom died, David led worship. When I moved into Roseland as a college student, DeWitt was my housemate. We all have history together. In moments when the pain and hardships of life overwhelm me, I draw strength from seeing David, DeWitt, and Ryan faithfully serving. I hope they have found some strength in me as well. By the power of the Holy Spirit, we carry each other as we serve. Whom has God brought into your life to give you strength in hard times as well as smooth times? Lord, we thank you for the strength we find in one another. As we walk through challenges together, may we lift each other up, reflecting your love and drawing closer to you. Amen.

When most of us read Mark 16 or Matthew 28, we think of missionaries and those who go to foreign countries to serve for a week or two. We think that’s how you fulfill the call to go and preach or make disciples, but every day, we get a chance to get up and drive into a “village” full of people who don’t know or don’t care about Jesus. It’s called your job. Most of us think of our jobs as a hindrance to doing the work of the ministry, but what if we flip the script on that mindset? What if we walked into our workplace every day and saw it not as what’s keeping us from going but the destination God is sending us? When Jesus told us to go, what if He meant work or school instead of church or overseas?

You walk into the office or log on to your morning meeting, and something feels off. One of your most reliable team members is distracted, quiet, and not meeting expectations. You wonder if you should say something… but you don't want to overstep. You're not a therapist. What if you say the wrong thing? In this episode, Dr. Bray explores what managers should do when they notice signs of emotional distress in an employee. Inspired by the Harvard Business Review article “Helping an Employee in Distress” and grounded in real-world psychology, this conversation will give you the language, mindset, and confidence to lead with both care and clarity. You will learn: How to recognize red flags without becoming intrusive What to say when you notice something is wrong How to respond with empathy while protecting healthy boundaries What research tells us about listening, validation, and psychological safety How one manager's simple conversation helped turn around a difficult situation You will hear stories similar to Jordan's, a creative lead known for his big ideas and positive energy. When he started arriving late and keeping his camera off in meetings, his manager, Taylor, gently checked in. That five-minute conversation revealed that Jordan was quietly navigating burnout and family stress. Taylor did not try to solve it, but she listened, offered support, and pointed him to resources. That small moment of connection helped Jordan feel seen and gave him the space to get back on track. This is not about having all the answers. It is about knowing how to open the door and walk alongside your people when it matters most. Tune in and learn how to support your team through challenging moments without compromising performance, professionalism, or humanity. QUOTES BY DR. BRAY "Empathy is not about offering sympathy, but about being committed to fully understanding someone's experience." "Cognitive reframing is a process of replacing unhelpful thoughts with a more realistic and balanced view of a situation." "Even a 5 to 7 minute conversation can really change things."
