Joe Rogan starts going to church as faith resurgence gains momentum, Christian apologist claims

Podcast host Joe Rogan is apparently making a faith-driven change to his Sundays: He's going to church. According to Christian apologist Wesley Huff, who appeared on "The Joe Rogan Experience" in January, the world-famous podcast host has been attending church "consistent[ly]" since their on-air deep-dive into Christianity and the Bible. Huff said, "Joe Rogan and I have had on and off communication since then. I can tell you for a fact that he is attending a church, and that has been a consistent thing. And so, things are happening." The public speaker serves as the Central Canada director for Apologetics Canada and made the claim during a recent appearance on the "Living Waters" podcast.

"I think for the better in that he's communicating with me and other people in his life who are influences that can speak into, you know, these issues of reliability and trustworthiness and verisimilitude of something like the pages of Scripture, and where he should and shouldn't be looking for the information in regards to that."

New Poll Finds Decline Of Christianity Has 'Leveled Off' In America Huff went on to say that he has observed a growing number of young people seeking Christian faith. He referenced a recent message from a bookstore where teens have been coming in asking for the Bible, reportedly saying "all my friends are reading this thing." "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. 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,'" Huff continued. Data backs the trend. According to a new study by the American Bible Society, there has been a rise in Bible users from 38% to 41%, with notable gains among young people and men. "Millennials saw a 29% increase in Bible use from 2024 to 2025 and men saw a 19% increase, closing the long-time gender gap in Bible use," a press release by the American Bible Society revealed. "In recent years, Millennials and men were among the least likely to use the Bible." Among Gen Z, Scripture engagement rose from 11% in 2024 to 15% in 2025. "If the Bible is, you know, becoming popular with teenagers, then something is happening and the Lord is moving," the Christian apologist concluded.

God's Plan For Personal Purity

In today's culture, sexual purity can be a difficult topic to approach – especially for men. However, it's an important conversation to have when confronting our spiritual well being. Author and President of Living Waters Emeal 'E.Z.' Zwayne makes the case for pursuing a path of holiness in his new book, Fight Like A Man . E.Z. explains how sexual immorality poses a threat to relationships, family dynamics, and the soul. He later shares the importance of spreading the word about purity and emphasizes that everyone can be forgiven and redeemed through Christ. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Springfield Museums reopens live animal exhibit

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (WWLP)–A popular exhibit at the Springfield Museums is back open, just in time for school vacation week. The exhibit is called 'Living Waters: From Oceans to Valleys.' Museum guests can explore habitats and animals from around the world like poison dart frogs, and some from our own backyard like trout from the Connecticut River. This Massachusetts animal shelter says it's full, needs help with adoptions The Jenny Power, Director of Science for the Springfield Museums, told 22News there are also exhibits uniquely designed for the visually impaired. 'Our new interactive map of the Connecticut River valley watershed and our new giant turtle ambassador, those are both highly accessible for people with low or no sight,' said Power. 'They may not be able to see the animals but if they can touch that model of a wood turtle, they can figure out what a wood turtle would look like.' Living Waters was made possible through a $465-thousand federal earmark from The Offices of Senators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey and The National Institute of Standards and Technology.
