Recovering the classic, Protestant interpretation of Bible prophecy.

Sermons

The sermons listed below are all on passages of the Bible related to prophecies of the end times (the branch of theology called, "eschatology"). All of these were preached by myself, Joe Haynes, at the church where I serve as the preaching pastor. I received my Masters degree in Christian Studies from Northwest Baptist Seminary, and am currently working on a Doctor of Ministry from The Master's Seminary. For a summary of my doctrinal beliefs, please see our Statement of Faith.

Sermons on Bible prophecy are available from the books of the Bible listed below.

I have many more sermons available also on our church website at bcchurch.ca/sermons. Since mid-March 2020, our sermons have been livestreamed at 10:30 a.m. Pacific Time, and can be watched at bcchurch.ca/live. Both audio and video recordings are published afterward to the church site. It is my prayer these sermons will be used by God to give you unshakable hope in Jesus Christ alone.
