@shepherdtools Thank you for that. With that being in place now, how can I remove a user from the system to not count against the '5' on the free side? Or if we change our team and need to change a person out of a role like ministry team every few years?
@shepherdtools When I toggle from admin to elder, it's a radio button with only able to select one role. How do I select two roles as both? I want to assign a list to the admin/elder and can't see a way to do both.

@JoshDaws@theblaze Congrats! I've been following for a bit trying to get a handle on the AI stuff.. out of my reach still. But sounds like a good fit for your passion!
@WesleyLHuff@crossway Do these include the ESV study Bible notes and more? I've been debating switching my daily to an LSB but would miss my study Bible notes.
@RockWallBibles I would love to see a LSB with something akin to the ESV study Bible notes. I like the 'community' approach with multiple perspectives vs one mans understanding.
@farmingandJesus@ThrillaRilla369 During the covid crazy I started adding one extra meal on top of a normal tip. The idea to chip in for those that stopped going out. Where I am it still seems appreciated,
@JoshDaws I saw someone make a raspberry pi version with a led screen, but went skylight after messing with it. If I could have figured it out this looks like what I want.
@forestfrank In our world of social media we see, hear and say we know of peoples moral failure. This is a blessing and curse of our technology. In generations past our hymnals were built by human authors who failed, yet we don't often discuss tossing those from moral failures we don't know.
Did a committee invent the divinity of Jesus, or is that just a story we’ve been handed?
In Episode 3 of Can I Trust the Bible?, Andy Steiger and I step onto the ancient ground of Nicaea in Turkey to confront one of the most persistent myths in history. Was the canon shaped by power… or preserved through truth?

AI is here to stay, and most of us are still trying to figure out what to do with it. We wonder: Should Christians use AI, and if so, how?
I’ve spent the last while experimenting with tools like Claude and Perplexity, not with the intention of having them replace me, but having them assist me. Where has it helped? Summarizing long videos and articles, searching vast personal archives of quotes and articles, proofreading, and even analyzing huge sets of data, like a collection of 7,000 Puritan works or the complete sermons of Charles Spurgeon.
It has also been useful for tedious or repetitive work: organizing receipts, wrangling spreadsheets, generating topical indexes, and helping a non-coder like me build simple but helpful apps and tools.
Yet I have some significant concerns: AI flatters us, it sometimes “hallucinates” and fabricates information, and it invites us to give vast amounts of personal data to companies we barely know and have little reason to trust.
AI is still in its infancy, but it is not going away. As Christians, it may be wise for us to learn how it works, where it helps, where it harms, and how to ensure it remains a servant rather than a master. I’ve tried to outline some of that here: https://t.co/CHMHefmUbf
