Psalm 46 | Stillness in the Midst of StressIn a world that rarely stops moving, Psalm 46 offers a radical invitation: “Be still, and know that I am God.” When anxiety rises and life feels unmanageable, God remains our refuge and strength. This message reminds us that stillness is not escape—it’s where we find resilience, renewal, and perspective.

A.I. and Faith: A Panel Discussion
2026-02-11 18:30 - 20:30 | Grace Hall, 3180 Peachtree Rd NE, Atlanta, GA, 30305, United States
A.I. and Faith Panel Discussion
Wednesday, February 11, 20266:30 – 8:30 pm, Grace HallPeachtree Road United Methodist Church
Artificial Intelligence is transforming the way we live, work, and think — but what does this mean for people of faith? Join us for a conversation on the promises and perils of A.I., featuring experts in theology and technology who will explore how faith informs our response to innovation, ethics, and human creativity in a changing world. All are welcome.
Our distinguished panel includes:

Dr. Kevin Dalmeijer, Georgia Tech Professor and Senior Research Associate, Managing Director of the NSF AI Institute.
Dr. Ian McFarland, Professor of Theology at Emory University, whose research explores the relationship between theology and science.
Dr. Robert “Bo” Adams, Associate Professor at Emory University, New Testament scholar, software developer, and Director of the Pitts Theological Library.

Together, they will consider questions at the intersection of faith, technical innovation, and human responsibility: (Here are some examples)

How does AI challenge our understanding of what it means to be created in God’s image?
What moral and ethical responsibilities come with developing and using AI?
How does AI impact my children, and what educational and vocational guidance can parents offer them?
How can the church lead conversations that honor both the development of human creativity and technological assistance?
How might the use of AI lead to solutions for healthcare, food insecurity, global poverty, education, and environmental stewardship?

This discussion is open to everyone — from tech enthusiasts to those simply curious about what AI means for our shared future. All ages are welcome.

Ash Wednesday Services

Ash Wednesday marks the start of the Lenten season of reflection and repentance. The traditional feature of our Lenten services is the imposition of ashes, signifying the spirit of humility with which we enter this season of penitence and prayer.

As Lent begins, Jesus invites His followers to live not for show, but with sincerity and devotion. This message explores how a life rooted in quiet faithfulness can bring deep and lasting blessing.

Lenten Series: Life-Changing Encounters with Jesus
Throughout the season of Lent, we journey alongside people whose lives were forever changed through their encounters with Jesus. From curious disciples and skeptical seekers to the rejected, the blind, and even the dead, each story reveals something about the transforming power of Christ. As we prepare our hearts for Easter, these sacred moments invite us to reflect deeply on our own lives—and to open ourselves to healing, clarity, and resurrection hope.

Men's Annual Spiritual Retreat

Rev. Bill Britt and Rev. Geoff Beakley invite you to join them for PRUMC’s second annual men’s spiritual retreat in the North Georgia mountains. This retreat is a unique opportunity for personal growth, helping you deepen your connection with God and build stronger relationships with other men from PRUMC.
Our moderator for the retreat is Dr. Kendall Soulen, the professor of Systematic Theology at Emory University. Dr. Soulen believes that the power of God’s grace to redeem believers from sin is a crucial part of the gospel message, but he thinks it’s only the gospel’s subplot! Dr. Soulen will help us explore what he calls “The Main Plot”: that God desires us to experience him by his power, and how, by God’s power, our capacity to be with God, to be with ourselves, and to be with others expands. The retreat will explore these affirmations and the difference they make for Christian life and faith.
