Episode 468: Should You Let AI Into Your Creative Process? Kathi, Tenneil & Roger Get Real about Ethics, Boundaries, and Breakthroughs

In this timely episode of the Writing at the Red House podcast, Kathi Lipp is joined by Tenneil Register and Roger Lipp for a down-to-earth conversation about integrating AI into your creative and professional life—without sacrificing authenticity, ethics, or your God-given voice.

Feeling torn between harnessing new tech and protecting your unique creativity? You’re not alone! Kathi, Tenneil, and Roger share their real boundaries (and breakthroughs), including:

  • Where to draw the ethical line with AI
  • Practical examples of how (and how NOT) to use AI in outlining, editing, blog writing, devotional content, and sales copy
  • Why your originality is irreplaceable—and how to tell when AI helps or hinders
  • How writers can use AI to handle “the drudgery” while preserving the sacred heart of their message

If you’re a Christian writer or creative wondering where AI fits (and where it doesn’t), don’t miss this honest, grace-filled chat. Plus, discover listener stories and contribute your experience—email info@kathilipp.com!
