Joe Rogan’s Churchgoing Sparks Talk of Faith Resurgence Among Millennials and Gen Z

Joe Rogan, the podcasting titan known for his no-holds-barred conversations, is reportedly trading his Sunday morning coffee for a pew at church, signaling a surprising shift in his personal journey. According to Wesley Huff, a Christian apologist who joined Rogan on The Joe Rogan Experience earlier this year, the host has been attending services consistently, diving deeper into faith after their in-depth discussion about Christianity and the Bible.

Huff, who directs Apologetics Canada, shared on the Living Waters podcast that Rogan’s curiosity about scripture remains strong, with ongoing dialogues that probe the reliability and relevance of biblical texts. “He’s asking the big questions,” Huff noted, suggesting Rogan’s spiritual exploration is more than a passing phase.

This personal pivot aligns with a broader cultural trend: Christianity is seeing a resurgence, particularly among younger generations. Data from the American Bible Society shows Bible usage climbing from 38% to 41%, with Millennials and men driving the surge—29% and 19% increases, respectively. Even Gen Z is getting in on the action, with scripture engagement jumping from 11% to 15% in a single year. Bookstores are buzzing with teens seeking Bibles, some claiming, “All my friends are reading this thing.”

The faith wave even touched the podcast charts, where Ascension’s Rosary in a Year briefly outranked Rogan’s show in early 2025. Could this be the spark that nudged Rogan toward the church doors? Whatever the case, his journey reflects a growing hunger for meaning in a world often skeptical of tradition.
