Tim Pollock

Senior Pastor

(209) 271-7799

Dr. Tim Pollock, Senior Pastor had intended to follow his parents dream of a career in medicine. However, he clearly sensed God's calling him out of pre-med school and into the ministry. He received a Th.g in Pastoral Studies in 1977 and answered the call to pastor Bible Baptist Church of Stockton in 1979. His vision to help individuals find lasting hope in Christ and make wise decisions based on Biblical principles is clearly observed in his “down-to-earth” preaching style. God brought Tim and Pauline together in 2010 after both went through the dark season of losing their spouses. Together they have 12 children, 50 grandchildren (and counting)!

​

Pauline's spiritual journey is an amazing story of God's grace! Raised religiously but without salvation, she received Christ in her early 20's when a personal soul-winner came to her door. For over 25 years she has served faithfully in The Home Church as a bus captain, teacher, vocalist, children's worker, bookkeeper, prayer warrior, and so much more. Her sweet spirit is loved by so many!​
