This talk was presented to the Toronto Athletes in Action group at the University of Toronto, Canada. In this presentation Wesley shares some tools and advice on how to apply apologetics and share your faith effectively. Wesley Huff was born in Multan, Pakistan and spent a portion of his childhood in the Middle East. He holds a BA from York University, a Masters in theological studies from Tyndale University, and is currently a PhD student at the University of Toronto In biblical studies. While being an avid blogger, he is a contributor the Online Apologetics Academy and has contributed numerous entries to the Melton’s Encyclopedia of American Religions (9th Ed.). After being diagnosed with a rare neurological condition at the age of 11 that left him paralyzed from the waist down, Wes experienced a miraculous recovery that the doctors themselves said they had no medical explanation for. This experience, along with a great deal of study and soul searching in his later teens, is what solidified his interest in the subjects of faith, and engaging the beliefs and worldview perspectives of others. He has been participating in public dialogues on issues of faith, belief, and religion for the last six years. He enjoys canoeing, archery, and cats (although not all three at the same time). Wes lives with his wife, Melissa in Toronto, Ontario.
