In 2019, while reading Richard Wurmbrand's "Tortured for Christ," Dani Mota's heart was stirred with a single question: "How can technology empower the underground church?" As a missionary kid, this question resonated deeply with his personal connection to global ministry. At Jessup University, God's path led Dani to his mentor, Ray Bryant, and together they began exploring ways to harness innovation for the Church's mission. Through countless conversations, a clear vision took shape: bring faith-driven thinkers, entrepreneurs, investors, and pastors together to develop a framework for equipping the Church to lead in innovation.

By God's grace, this vision became reality on January 17th, 2025, when the inaugural Faith & AI Summit was held at Jessup University. Over 200 leaders from ministry and business of many different industries gathered to shape this new chapter in the Church's role in innovation.

What began as a personal calling has grown into a movement, and we're now expanding this mission across the country. We invite you to be a part of it.
