Description
As artificial intelligence reshapes the world, this bold book asks the urgent question: How do we embrace technology without losing our humanity—or our faith?
“If you care about truth, freedom, and staying grounded in what matters most, here is your wake-up call.” —John Rich, Multi-Platinum Country Music Artist, Award-Winning Songwriter, and Entrepreneur
Artificial intelligence is no longer the future. It’s now. And it’s reshaping how we think, live, and connect
From the algorithms guiding our phones to systems influencing culture, economics, and human connection, we are entering a new era. One that is quietly redefining identity, purpose, and faith.
In When Intelligence Isn’t Human, speaker and veteran advocate Ben Peterson examines one of the defining challenges of our time: how to navigate an advancing technological world without losing our humanity—or our faith.
Blending cultural insight, personal experience, and spiritual perspective, Peterson explores how AI is shaping our attention, our relationships, and even our sense of self. He unpacks the hidden influence of social media algorithms, the global push toward more powerful AI systems, and the broader cultural shifts changing how we understand truth, identity, and meaning.
This is not simply a warning about technology. It’s a call to clarity.
While technology continues to transform the world around us, it cannot satisfy the deeper ache for meaning, belonging, and direction. When Intelligence Isn’t Human reveals that this longing points beyond what machines can offer, and it requires a different kind of response. With practical insight and a faith-centered framework, and with his extensive speaking and training on this topic, Peterson challenges us to think clearly about the future, protect what matters most, and engage with technology without losing our purpose.
Because as artificial intelligence accelerates, the real challenge isn’t whether the world will change. It’s whether we will remain human enough to navigate it with faith.

Person
Ben Peterson brings hardwon authority to this conversation. He served in Iraq during the 2008–2009 Surge as a Chaplain’s Assistant, losing seven brothers in combat during his first week deployed. Carrying trauma, addiction and deep brokenness, he turned to God and emerged with a mission that has now reached more than 300,000 service members, veterans and families through his organization, Engage Your Destiny, which organized the largest Gospel outreach to veterans in American history. He has trained and spoken to the most elite units in the U.S. military, including the 101st Airborne, the 75th Ranger Battalion, Navy SEALs and multiple Special Forces Groups.
His current adversary is AI and his new mission is to ensure that the generation being shaped by machines finds the one voice no machine can replicate: the voice of God.
