An attorney by training, Wesley left the full time practice of law in 1985 to pursue a career in writing and public advocacy and has since published thousands of articles, columns, and opinion pieces on issues pertaining to the moral importance of human life.
Wesley has appeared on more than a thousand national and international television and radio talk/interview programs. He has testified as an expert witness in front of federal and state legislative committees, and has counseled government and business leaders internationally.
