Wesley Huff is a Brilliant Christian Apologist You Must Know About

Wesley Huff is a 33-year-old Canadian Christian apologist and Ph.D. candidate in New Testament Studies that every believer should know about it.
He burst onto the scene in a big way in early January 2025 when mega-ton gorilla podcaster Joe Rogan had Huff on his show for over three hours to talk about the historicity of Jesus of Nazareth, his death and resurrection and the reliability of the biblical texts with an emphasis on the New Testament.
More recently he was featured on Easter weekend for a full hour on Piers Morgan “Uncensored.”
Not only is Huff one of the smartest and most articulate Christian apologists working today in defense of the faith, but he is genuinely one of the kindest and inviting, while still standing for uncompromising orthodoxy. For such a young man, still plowing his way through school, his breadth of knowledge and gift for explaining the depths of it all in a concise way are remarkable.
Huff, born in Multan, Pakistan, was miraculously restored at age 12 from a rare neurological condition that paralyzed him from the waist down. Doctors have no explanation for his recovery, but Huff explains that today, he is the walking result of a “true supernatural experience.”
In fact, he says his doctors were the first ones to use the m-word: miracle. But the experience shored up his faith and compelled him to start studying where truth can be found in various religions and worldview perspectives. He has settled on biblical Christianity and has risen as one of its most insightful and compelling defenders. Beyond his studies as a Ph.D. student and growing media sensation, Huff serves as the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada.
Piers Morgan asked Huff at the beginning of his interview, “Is it indisputable to you that Jesus Christ existed?”
Huff confidently responded, “Oh, definitely so” adding, “Even the most skeptical scholars grant, that if we know very little about Jesus, we know that he did exist and that he was crucified in and around the beginning of the first century under the overseeing of the governor of Judea, Pontius Pilate.”
But what about the supernatural resurrection of the historic Jesus of Nazareth? Huff explained the textual evidence we possess, both biblical and extra-biblical, supports the conclusion that “if you could have a camera running on the tomb in or around 33 A.D., [it would show] that an actual Jesus would have walked out on the third day, after his crucifixion and burial.”
Piers Morgan followed up by admitting, “And that is the crux of this, isn’t it? Whether Jesus of Nazareth was resurrected really goes to the absolute essence and heart of Christianity because obviously, that is a miracle and everyone who believes in Christianity would feel validated.”
Huff’s conversations with both Piers Morgan and Joe Rogan are well worth watching and taking in the gifted and informed explanations for Christianity’s documented truth! (Due to some typical language from Rogan, the Morgan interview is the better to watch with your teen and pre-teen kids. They would greatly benefit from Huff’s insights and approach.)
