Venue – you’ll need a comfortable space (but not too comfortable!) with good lighting for reading, but also a decent screen and speaker setup. Any lounge or small room in a church normally used for small group study should be absolutely fine – a small conference room would be ideal.

Videos – whether you are watching online (we’d recommend you’ve got a good broadband connection for this, as buffering is a pain when you’ve gathered together!), watching downloaded videos, the videos are a key part of this course. Top tip – in a smaller group, you might get away with watching on an ipad or laptop – make sure it is placed on a hard surface to maximise volume!

Bibles – it really helps to have a Bible in hand for this course – each study takes a look at different passages relevant to the topic of the Unit being studied.

Leader’s Notes – download to your device, or print off, the relevant session outline and notes. Try to read them through before the session – that will help you, and those you are hosting.

Read the book – It would be helpful for the leader to read Masters or Slaves? before starting the course, there is a lot more detail and illustrations in the book as well as useful tables summarising the 6 key areas of personhood impacted by AI.
