An ‘Inquisitive’ Joe Rogan Has Been Attending Church Consistently, Says Apologist Wes Huff

Wesley Huff Says Interest in Christianity Is Growing Among Young People

Huff continues to have the opportunity to answer tough questions and discuss Christianity, whether those questions come from a place of objective curiosity or are fiery attacks. “Flagrant” podcast host Andrew Schulz introduced Huff as “the most bodaciously brolic Bible expert” before he peppered Huff with questions. With grace, humor, and solid theology, Huff responded to each inquiry.

“If you have spent your life not living out a life that is what Jesus has called you to do, to be, then Jesus is not going to force you into his presence,” Huff said. When pressed about the exclusivity of the Christian view of salvation, Huff said, “Christianity is inclusivistic in that all are called to come. But it is exclusivistic in that Jesus loves you and calls you to come as you are, but he loves you too much to leave you where you are.”

Despite a recent Gallup study finding that more than half of Americans say they rarely go to church, Huff is seeing more curiosity about Christianity from younger generations.

Gallup senior editor Jeffrey Jones referred to generational shifts when speaking of the decline in church attendance.

“If you were raised in a religion and you have fallen away, you can come back to it,” said Jones. “Younger people, a lot of times, weren’t brought up in any religion. So they don’t have anything to come back down.”

Huff, however, continues to cite examples of those in younger generations expressing interest, asking questions, and seeking resources regarding Christianity.

“We had someone who reached out to us recently at Apologetics Canada, who is probably the last bricks-and-mortar Christian bookstore that I’ve ever heard of,” said Huff. “But they said, ‘We have people walking through our doors asking, young people, teenagers saying, ‘I want a Bible. All my friends are reading this thing.'”

“So the Bible is, you know, becoming popular with teenagers,” Huff added. “Then yeah, something is happening and the Lord is moving.”
