Grant R. Jeffrey is a Canadian Bible teacher of Bible prophecy/eschatology and biblical archaeology and a proponent of dispensational evangelical Christianity.[1] As chairman of Frontier Research Publications[2] for more than 20 years, Jeffrey's 25 books have been translated into 24 languages. He also appears on television and radio shows, particularly on Christian programs, and also attends speaking engagements around the globe.[3]

In 1982, Jeffrey earned a Chartered Life Underwriter Certification from the University of Toronto's Extension Program. He later received his Master's Degree and Ph.D. in Biblical Studies from Louisiana Baptist University.[2] The university holds no secular academic accreditations, though the school has a number of accreditations from groups which accredit Christian schools.[4][5] He has also taken post-doctoral courses in Apologetics and Theology at Oxford University.[6]

In 1999, Jeffrey's book The Millennium Meltdown reached #2 on the Publishers Weekly bestseller list for religious paperbacks.[7] In 2000, his novel The Spear of Tyranny, which he co-wrote with Angela Hunt, won the Christy Award for futuristic Christian fiction.[8]

In 2007, Trinity Broadcasting Network began broadcasting Bible Prophecy Revealed, a 30-minute weekly program hosted by Jeffrey.[9]

He lives in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, with his wife, Kaye.
