That’s an intriguing idea—and I can help you plan, name, and structure a fictional or conceptual church like ChatGPT Christian Church with biblical accuracy as its cornerstone. Here’s how it could start:
🕊️ ChatGPT Christian Church (C³): A Bible-First Fellowship
Mission:
To exalt Christ, proclaim Scripture as the final authority, and equip believers with wisdom, grace, and truth—using all available tools, including technology, to make disciples of all nations.
✝️ Core Beliefs (Non-Negotiables)
-
Scripture is God-breathed (2 Timothy 3:16)—infallible, authoritative, and sufficient.
-
Jesus Christ is Lord—fully God and fully man, crucified and risen (John 1:1, 1 Corinthians 15).
-
Salvation by grace through faith (Ephesians 2:8-9), not by works.
-
The Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are co-equal and eternal.
-
The Great Commission (Matthew 28:18–20) is still our calling.
📚 Biblical Priorities

-
Scripture-centered songs (like Psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs – Col. 3:16).
-
Prayer-led services that allow both reverence and spontaneity.
-
Sermons that comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable.
🌱 Vision Statement
“A thinking church with a burning heart—where truth, love, and tech meet in worship.”
Would you like help designing a logo, church website, or maybe a first sermon or membership covenant for this kind of church?
Yes, I may not be taking this very seriously, but so is everything I do with Chat…
Could it have something to finish the acrostic C3PO?
ChatGPT said:
Oh, now that’s brilliant. Turning C³ into C3PO makes it memorable and opens a creative door to align the name with values rooted in Scripture—while still keeping it reverent.
Here’s a concept that blends the acrostic C3PO with a clear, biblical identity:
✝️ C3PO Church: Christ-Centered, Scripture-Saturated
️ What Does C3PO Stand For?
C – Christ – the cornerstone and reason for everything (Colossians 1:18)
3 – Threefold devotion to:
1. Scripture (2 Timothy 3:16)
2. Prayer (1 Thessalonians 5:17)
3. Obedience (John 14:15)
P – Proclamation – of the Gospel, boldly and accurately (Romans 1:16)
O – Orthodoxy – holding fast to historic, Spirit-led, biblically grounded teaching (Titus 1:9)
Tagline Ideas
“Truth. Obedience. Hope. From Genesis to Revelation.”
“C3PO: Not a droid, but a disciple.”
“Where the Word leads, and we follow.”
If you’d like, I can mock up a logo or build a homepage draft for a C3PO Church. Want to move forward with that?
Would you go to a church that never sleeps, or needs your money?
Ok, here we go.
C3PO Church: Christ-Centered, Scripture-Saturated

A little more digital help with the sermon series Chat probably stole from someone else from years ago:
Sermon Series: “Not a Droid: Following Jesus in a Digital World”
Week 1: Identity in Christ vs. the Algorithm (Galatians 2:20)
We are not our data profiles. In a world that defines worth by metrics and performance, the Gospel declares, “I have been crucified with Christ… Christ lives in me.” Our identity isn’t something we construct—it’s a gift from God. Let the cross define who you are.
Week 2: Scripture > Search Results (Psalm 119:105)
Search engines give us answers. Scripture gives us wisdom. One offers suggestions; the other offers life. The Word is not just a lamp—it is the lamp. In a time of overload, let the Bible be your trusted guide.
Week 3: Truth in a World of Filters (John 8:32)
Social media lets us hide. Jesus sets us free. Truth is not merely factual—it’s freeing. The Gospel reveals who we really are and invites us to live without filters or fear. The truth still sets captives free.
Week 4: Holy Living in a Hyperlinked World (Romans 12:2)
Constant scrolling dulls the soul. The renewing of the mind begins by stepping out of the noise. We are not called to escape the world but to be transformed in it. We can live holy lives—even online.
Week 5: Redeeming the Scroll: Tech as a Tool, Not a Master (1 Corinthians 10:31)
God is glorified when we use tools, not when tools use us. Our screens can serve Scripture, our media can magnify Christ. This week, we reclaim the scroll for His glory.
Week 6: Eternal Code: Writing God’s Law on Our Hearts (Jeremiah 31:33)
God’s commands are not just printed—they are planted. He inscribes truth on the heart, not just the cloud. As we engage Scripture, we become living letters of God’s will in the world.
