until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates

If AI takes over teaching materials, sermon prep and administration, churches on tight budgets may start by hiring fewer youth and education ministers who aren't yet ordained. Leading worship and pastoral visits remain human work. The decline in US church membership is separate from AI.

Major lifespan is the time left until AI is expected to start shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates. It doesn’t mean the major will disappear or that everyone will lose their job.
