Gretchen Huizinga
Speaker/Researcher/Podcaster
Adjunct Speaker with Apologetics Canada
New applications of artificial intelligence are placing increasingly heavy burdens on the world’s ethical frameworks and posing questions that are far too important to seek answers from one worldview alone. Since we have little understanding of AI’s present impact let alone its future consequences, we should adopt an “all-worldviews-on-deck” position as we seek wisdom in this arena.
Contrasting materialist and Christian thought, Gretchen brings viewpoint diversity to the field of AI ethics and challenges us to think beyond a minimum-standard culture of ethical AI and toward a robust culture of righteous AI. Bridging the gap between technological innovation and timeless principles of faith, Gretchen illuminates the intersection of AI, ethics, and the Christian gospel with wisdom and humor, making complex concepts accessible to all audiences.
Gretchen is an English major at heart (always reading a good book or silently correcting someone’s grammar) but holds master’s degrees in both Mass Communication and Learning Sciences & Human Development, as well as a PhD from the University of Washington with a dissertation titled Righteous AI: The Christian voice in the ethical AI conversation.

As a pioneering thinker at the intersection of faith and technology, Joanna was the first to frame Artificial Super-Intelligence (ASI) as the modern Tower of Babel (Genesis 11) in a widely read Christianity Today article (June 2020). At the 2019 Lausanne Global Workplace Forum in Manila, she asserted that Divine Wisdom (DW) surpasses AI, warning against making AI an idol.
Joanna is the founder of Devarim Design, an AI startup developing truth-driven, decentralized AI systems that promote fair data exchange and empower personal AI for augmented cognition.
Passionate about mentoring Christians to live as kingdom priests in their workplaces, Joanna founded The Kingdom On Earth Community (KOE) – a ministry dedicated to faith-work integration.

Wes Huff
Vice President
Apologetics Canada
Theme:
Wesley Huff was born in Multan, Pakistan, and spent a portion of his childhood in the Middle East. After being diagnosed with a rare neurological condition at the age of eleven that left him paralyzed from the waist down, Wes experienced a miraculous recovery for which the doctors themselves had no medical explanation. This experience, along with a great deal of study and soul searching in his later teen years, solidified his interest in faith and in engaging the beliefs and worldview perspectives of others. He spent his high school years in Northern Ontario and currently lives in Toronto, Canada, with his wife and four children.
Wesley is currently the Vice President for Apologetics Canada and has been a guest on a variety of public platforms, from The Joe Rogan Experience to Blurry Creatures Podcast. He has participated in numerous public dialogues, debates, and interfaith events on issues of belief and religion across North America.
He holds a BA in sociology from York University, a Masters of Theological Studies from Tyndale University, and is currently doing a PhD in New Testament at the University of Toronto’s Wycliffe College.
