It was supposed to be a normal weekend at the Apologetics Canada Conference… A conference filled with conversations, ministry moments, and the familiar rhythm of serving. But for Andrew Marcus, everything shifted—fast. What began as a packed schedule turned into something no one expected—and definitely not something you'd plan for. In this deeply personal episode, Andrew opens up about what really happened behind the scenes at the conference, joined by his pastor Brent Smith. Together, they unpack the warning signs of burnout, the weight of always being “on,” and the unexpected place where Andrew ended up doing his most impactful ministry of the weekend...

Wesley “Wes” Huff is a Canadian Christian apologist, theologian, and scholar specializing in biblical manuscripts and Christian theology. Born in Multan, Pakistan, he spent his early years in the Middle East, significantly influencing his interest in cultural and theological studies. At the age of 11, Huff was diagnosed with a rare neurological condition, acute transverse myelitis, that left him paralyzed from the waist down. However, he experienced a remarkable recovery that doctors could not explain medically, an event that profoundly shaped his passion for ministry and theology. As the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada since 2019, Huff has been actively involved in organizing and participating in public dialogues, debates, and interfaith events across North America. He regularly presents at conferences, churches, and university campuses, addressing the reliability of biblical manuscripts, theology, and cultural engagement. Huff lives in Toronto with his wife and three children, and his work is highly regarded for its academic rigor and engaging communication style.

There are many styles of apologetics, but Andy Steiger and Wesley Huff stand out in that they don't just focus on the discussion, but rather the person behind the question. In this newest conversation, Museum of the Bible chief marketing officer and Unscrolled host Matthias Walther sits down with the president and director of Apologetics Canada to talk about the different styles of defending the Bible and Christianity, and why they strive to take a counter-cultural approach to their discussions.Guest Bio:Andy Steiger, founder and president of Apologetics CanadaWesley Huff, central Canada director for Apologetics CanadaGuest Links:ApologeticsCanada.com“Reclaimed: How Jesus Restores Our Humanity in a Dehumanized World” By Andy Steiger“Joe Rogan Experience #2252 - Wesley Huff”“Five Views on Apologetics”"Can I Trust the Bible?"

Wesley Huff, the Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, joins Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar on the podcast to discuss his experience on the Joe Rogan Podcast and the power of God's word. Born in Pakistan, Wes spent time on the mission field when he was a child. At 12, he was diagnosed with a condition that doctors claimed would leave him unable to walk, yet God worked and he miraculously regained mobility a month later.Wes shares how his debate with Billy Carson gained unexpected traction. Having responded to Billy's claims on social media, he was invited to an impromptu debate. Wes remained kind and clear in presenting the truth, while Billy seemed unprepared. After the debate, Billy reacted poorly, bringing more attention to the conversation. On Christmas Eve, Wes received a direct message from Joe Rogan, inviting him on to his podcast. A week later, he found himself sitting across from Rogan in a natural, free-flowing conversation. Joe seemed genuinely interested in what Wes had to say, and Wes noted that Rogan appeared to be more receptive to Christianity than in the past. He asked Joe what he thought about Jesus, and Joe acknowledged Jesus as a real person and saw value in Christianity.The discussion shifts to the validity of scripture. Wes explains internal and external evidence, such as name qualifiers in the Bible that align with historical records and the accuracy of geography in the texts. He recommends Scribes and Scripture for those wanting to explore the reliability of the Bible. Oscar points out a shift from outright atheism to a view that sees Christianity as useful, exemplified by Jordan Peterson. While Peterson articulates biblical principles well, he stops short of accepting Jesus as Savior. Wes believes God may be working through Peterson and hopes he will eventually embrace the full truth of the gospel.Regarding apologetics, Wes emphasizes the importance of faith over intellectual arguments. While evidence is valuable, salvation comes through faith in Christ, not winning debates. Even those who witnessed Jesus' miracles—like the Pharisees and Roman soldiers—remained unconvinced. Evangelism requires boldness to proclaim Christ, even at the risk of looking foolish. Finally, Wes discusses the canon of scripture, explaining how early Christians discerned which books were inspired. The gospels and Paul's letters were widely accepted early on, while debates centered on other writings. Over centuries, the early church ensured the canon contained only texts tied to Jesus or His apostles, preserving the integrity of God's word.Send us a textThanks for listening!

This Tuesday, don't miss a special highlight episode as we gear up for an unforgettable conversation dropping this Thursday.Wesley Huff, Central Canada Director for Apologetics Canada, shares with the guys how his debate with Billy Carson unexpectedly led to an invitation from Joe Rogan to appear on his podcast. During their conversation, Rogan seemed more open to Christianity than in the past, acknowledging Jesus as a historical figure and recognizing Christianity's value. Wes and the guys discuss the reliability of scripture, citing historical accuracy and external evidence, and recommend Scribes and Scripture for further exploration. They note a cultural shift from atheism to seeing Christianity as useful, as seen in figures like Jordan Peterson, and express hope that God is working through them. Emphasizing that salvation comes through faith rather than intellectual arguments, Wes explains that even those who witnessed Jesus' miracles did not always believe. He also touches on the formation of the biblical canon, explaining how early Christians carefully discerned which writings were truly inspired to preserve the integrity of God's word.Send us a textThanks for listening!

This week on the AC Podcast, we recap our final major event of the year—the Apologetics Canada Conference: Can I Trust the Bible? Held at Glad Tidings Church in Burlington, Ontario, the conference brought together the entire AC team and over 300 attendees for a weekend of engaging sessions. As always, the Q&A segments were a highlight, though time didn't allow us to address every question. In this episode, the team tackles some of the notable questions submitted by attendees.

Often times we hear people say that the Bible is filled with contradictions, or that there is not enough evidence to confirm any credibility for the Gospel writings. Other people ask, “what about all the other books that did not make it into the Bible, like the Gospel of Thomas? Or what about all the different translations? How do we determine which one is an accurate copy of the earliest manuscripts?” Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time Wes Huff from Apologetics Canada to discuss all kinds of evidence that is sure to encourage you in your faith

Wesley Huff, an historian and doctoral student at the University of Toronto and director of Central Canada for Apologetics Canada, discusses the Bible’s stance on abortion, early church views, and societal implications, emphasizing the intrinsic value of human life and … Continued The post The ProLife Team Podcast 148 | Wesley Huff appeared first on Pro Life Ribbon.

As artificial intelligence continues to develop, we continue to revisit the conversation to ensure we are one step ahead as believers. With Neurolink's latest brain chip implanted in the first human, and Sweden's micro chips becoming more and more popular, allowing people to purchase goods and unlock their car with their hands, how far is too far? Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with founder of Apologetics Canada, Andy Steiger, where they unpack the latest in AI and how we as Christians should respond to the fast pace of technology.

It's easy for us to let our immediate church context define what the Church (capital “C”) looks like around the world. This is particularly so for those of us who live in a country where being a Christian is relatively easy. Today, Apologetics Canada brings you an eye-opening interview. Listen in on the conversation Steve had with Rev. Gary Stagg, the Executive Director of Open Doors Canada. They discussed Open Door's 2024 World Watchlist, an annual list produced by Open Doors to rank the top 50 most dangerous countries to be a Christian. They talk about several notable countries mentioned on the list, and what is going on for the churches in those countries.

Over the past few years we've been hearing people talk about their own personal truths. If their truths differ from another's, well that's okay, because everyone is allowed to have their own truth right? But this begs the question: if that's the case, then what actually is truth? Can everything be true? Do all paths lead to truth? Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with Apologetics Canada's Alberta Director, Steve Kim, as they spend time in the studio together unpacking truth and how to navigate today's cultural moment “where all truth is true.” 

We often hear people use the term “karma.” The idea that good things happen when you do good, and bad things happen to you in response to your negative actions. Karma is very closely connected to Buddhism, but in the western world, we view karma (and Buddhism for that matter) with different lenses than those devoted to the religion in other parts of the world. Join host Andrew Marcus as he spends time with our ministry friend Steve Kim from Apologetics Canada as we unpack the history of Buddhism, their theology and how we as Christians can love them and point them to the truths found in Scripture. 

A rerelease of a great conversation with Wesley Huff from Apologetics Canada about the reliability of our Bibles which was originally recorded in October 2023. Paul and Wesley tackle some common questions about the Bible. Who decided what books were in? When did that happen? How did we go from Hebrew and Greek manuscripts to the English versions we have today? Why are some translations different from others?

Andy Steiger is the founder and president of Apologetics Canada Ministries. He passionately engages pressing issues related to our humanity from a Christian perspective. He has presented at various venues such as Cambridge University on philosophical issues related to Artificial Intelligence, provided ethical guidelines on robotics for the United Nations, and addressed legal concerns over rights of conscience at the World Congress in Philosophy of Law.   So he seems like a pretty good person to ask our questions about ChatGPT and AI

Mystery gospels full of secret truths suppressed by the Church for centuries have finally been revealed! … Sounds intriguing, doesn't it? According to the millions of people who have bought books, watched movies, and read news stories with such headlines, it certainly is! We all love a good "mystery has been revealed" story, but is there anything to it, or is this just conspiratorial fiction? Today, we are joined by Bible scholar and apologist Wes Huff to investigate these claims by looking at, arguably, the most important of the so-called "suppressed" gospels, the Gospel of Thomas. Wes Huff is a popular author and speaker with Apologetics Canada, where he serves as the Central Canada Director, and is currently completing his PhD studies in New Testament and Christian Origins at the University of Toronto's Wycliffe College.

Today, Wes Huff of Apologetics Canada explains to us that we can trust that the bible hasn't changed, despite the fact that the bible demonstrably changes all the time, even as late as 2011.Original Video: https://tinyurl.com/2apca4a3Cards:Losing Originals is Best for Preserving Originals!:https://youtu.be/-hrxFOn1K2YThe Watering Hole:https://www.youtube.com/@WateringHoleSources:Chinese whispers: https://tinyurl.com/mugr4u7Statement Of Practice & Belief: https://tinyurl.com/25jbz3jvThree Things to Know about New Testament Manuscripts: https://tinyurl.com/2r2he6djBible translations in the Middle Ages: https://tinyurl.com/25fckrdeConstantine the Great and Christianity: https://tinyurl.com/h4sbqu7Bart Ehrman.

We're talking with Andy Steiger of Apologetics Canada all about the rights and responsibilities of conscience as it relates to MAiD (medical assistance in dying, aka euthanasia). This conversations is deep and wide as we talk about this very important topic. Doctors are on the front lines of the testing ground for morality… we see that in many instances. We discuss how the “guaranteed” rights of conscience are being neglected in pursuit of an ideology that mirrors a very dark history.

A group in the Netherlands called Cooperative Last Will is campaigning to completely decriminalize euthanasia and assisted suicide. Their goal is that citizens would be able to take their own lives anywhere and be assisted by anyone with state-provided lethal substances. Jon is joined by Steve Kim, Speaker and Alberta Director for Apologetics Canada, to discuss this critical topic. Visit www.faithbeyondbelief.ca for more resources and to partner with our ministry.

This is a special week for Apologetics Canada. The AC Podcast celebrates its 400th episode! From its humble beginning as “something to try out” to being a major part of AC's ministry, the podcast has undergone many changes over the years. Join the AC team as they share why they do this podcast and the very human process behind it all.

There has often been a tendency to be rather comparative when it comes to sharing testimonies. While Christian culture often lends its attention to the most tragic of stories, it doesn't share it's scars. Apologetics Canada is honored to have many talented speakers join our AC Adjunct Speaker team and on this weeks podcast Troy and Steve sit down with none other than Alanzo Paul. Tune into this week's episode as we introduce Alanzo to the AC Podcast audience. Hear about how God radically changed Alanzo's life and what he's doing with the grace he's been given.

Andy speaks on these topics internationally at universities, conferences, churches, prisons, and coffee shops. Andy is originally from Portland, Oregon and currently lives in Abbotsford, British Columbia with his wife, Nancy, and their boys.Ministry Description:When Andy Steiger and his wife, Nancy founded Apologetics Canada in 2010, they were motivated to stop the exodus of young people leaving the church. God however had much more in store. This generation of young people both Christians and non-Christians alike, have questions and are seeking truth.  The challenge in Western culture is communicating the message of Jesus in a way that people can understand and appreciate. Sharing the gospel requires us all to understand and speak the language of culture and address the questions being asked with intellectual honesty, gentleness and respect. When we do this in the love and winsomeness of Christ Jesus, lives are impacted and culture is changed. Resources:Website: https://apologeticscanada.com/Podcasts: https://apologeticscanada.com/podcasts/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ApologeticsCA/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/apologeticscanada/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/ApologeticsCanada

Most, if not all, deliberate human activity gets filtered through the lens of some worldview. What has metaphysics got to do with medicine? As it turns out, quite a lot. Questions of medical ethics touch on what it means to be human, what the value of human life is, and a host of other issues of deepest significance. Today, Andy sat down with Raphael Samuel, an anesthesiologist and a Christian apologist, who is also one of Apologetics Canada's adjunct speakers, to discuss the beauty and the brokenness of the human body.

Dr. Raphael Samuel's story begins with his upbringing during Apartheid in South Africa. For his day job he works as an anesthesiologist but he's also passionate about explaining the coherence of the Christian faith and does itinerant work as an Apologetics Canada speaker. In this episode Matt and Raphael get into Christianity's scientific, moral, logical, and historical coherence. ABOUT Raphael Samuel is a Christian speaker, apologist and anesthesiologist. Born in Durban, South Africa, he obtained his medical degree and a Master's degree in Medicine there. He further obtained Fellowships in Anesthesiology from the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada. He is currently completing his Master's degree in Christian Apologetics at Talbot School of Theology, Biola University, Southern California. Having lived, worked and ministered in three different countries on three respective continents, he testifies to the transformative power of, and universal need for the Gospel of Jesus. By presenting evidence for the moral, logical, historical, and scientific coherence of the Christian worldview, he aims to help the fellow believer to love the Lord God with all his mind (Mk 12:30), as well as address barriers to belief faced by the skeptic.

Behind the weekly podcast and other more visible work of ministry, Apologetics Canada has been undergoing some big and exciting changes in the background as of late. One such change is the growing ministry family. This week, Andy and Troy sat down with Jane, one of our newest team members, to hear her testimony of how evil has actually led to God, and also to hear her heart for evangelism and prayer.

C. S. Lewis was a prolific writer who is credited for sparking interest in theology for many who entered Bible schools and seminaries. Though he's long dead and gone, his writings still speak to us today, helping us elucidate the cultural moment we find ourselves in. Today, Andy sat down with a C. S. Lewis expert and a friend of Apologetics Canada, Dr. Louis Markos, to discuss Lewis' The Abolition of Man.

Happy new year! As we kick off year 2021, Apologetics Canada has an exciting development they would like to announce.  Today, you will get to meet Troy. Who is he? What's he all about? Find out in today's edition of the AC Podcast.

In today's edition of the AC Podcast, Andy and Steve celebrate a belated 300th episode milestone with a little status update on what we've been up to and where we are headed. From something as visible as the launch of Andy's new book, to things that are somewhat less known, today's episode will give you a glimpse into what's going on with this ministry.
