Wesley Huff (born in Multan, Pakistan) is a Canadian apologist, speaker, writer, and scholar specializing in biblical manuscripts and Christian theology. He is currently pursuing a PhD in New Testament and Christian Origins at Wycliffe College, University of Toronto.

Early Life and Education

[edit]

Huff was born in Multan, Pakistan, and spent his early years in the Middle East, an upbringing that profoundly influenced his interest in cultural and theological studies. At the age of eleven, Huff was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition that left him paralyzed from the waist down. He experienced a recovery that he says doctors could not medically explain, an event that played a pivotal role in shaping his passion for ministry and theology.[3][5][6][7][8]

Huff holds a Bachelor's degree in Sociology from York University, where he participated as a student athlete in Track & Field.[9] He also earned a Master's degree in Theological Studies from Tyndale University and is currently pursuing a PhD in New Testament and Christian Origins at Wycliffe College, University of Toronto.[1][10][11][12][13]

Career

[edit]

Since 2019, Huff has served as the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, where he organizes and participates in public dialogues, debates, and interfaith events across North America.[1][8][14][15][16]

Huff is a regular lecturer at conferences, universities, and churches, addressing topics such as the reliability of biblical manuscripts, theology, and cultural engagement.[1][6] He also maintains a YouTube channel where he shares video content on biblical history, manuscript evidence, and apologetics, and he has been featured on podcasts, including The Joe Rogan Experience.[8][12][16][17][18][19][20]
