We at Purpose Institute believe that live instruct

We at Purpose Institute believe that live instructors represent God's greatest gift for training leaders at the local level. There is no substitute having someone impart their experience to you, and the comfort of having a fellow student pray with you as God's power flows through the ongoing class. Nothing takes the place of shared lives, and we believe so. #FindYourPurpose

Why Purpose Institute? In the words of our founder

Why Purpose Institute? In the words of our founder and Chief Executive, "PI's passion is to partner with and empower local leaders worldwide to teach, train, and fully equip workers in the harvest fields of every nation and language group in the world." We believe in equipping and training.

This is our Director of Campuses for Purpose Institute, Brian Michael. His passion to see others embrace the gift of training came from his personal experience with PI. ⠀
⠀
As a young pastor, PI entered his life at a timely moment when he felt inadequately prepared to take on the role that God had called him to. The gift of training through Purpose Institute became part of an unforgettable journey that God had set him on. ⠀
⠀
Today, he enables new PI campuses to give the same gift of training to others just like himself, impacting many others to impact their community! #FindYourPurpose

"PI is an invaluable resource for those who do not

"PI is an invaluable resource for those who do not have the option of enrolling full-time in a Bible School. By investing one weekend per month, a person can receive the education and empowerment to fulfill their calling. I received my two-year degree 6-7 years ago and my wife was able to complete her 4-year degree. The teaching was anointed. The doctrine was spot-on. The experience was so worth the effort and the cost is almost laughable. If you are serious about taking your life and your ministry to the next level...enroll in Purpose Institute!" Scott Leonardson from Billings, Montana

Here's a short Q & A with Pastor Richard Collins a

Here's a short Q & A with Pastor Richard Collins about Purpose Institute:⠀ ⠀
1. Why did you want to start a Purpose Institute campus (then known as Ohio College of Ministries)?
"Training future leaders is essential to fulfilling the Great Commission. As a pastor, I felt that PI was the answer. It was a twofold blessing: leaders were trained, and they did not have to leave their home church to receive training."⠀
⠀
2. What do you remember most about those early days of Purpose Institute?
"The classes were often interrupted by the presence of God coming into the classroom; spontaneous prayer would break out."⠀
⠀
3. Any additional thoughts? ⠀
"Only by divine direction could a simple niche be found that would revolutionize leadership training for global impact. This niche was a weekend Bible school that uses highly qualified local pastors and ministers as teachers."

We get asked this question a lot. Perhaps this wi

We get asked this question a lot.
Perhaps this will help explain what PI is all about! Many churches are incorporating PI into their highest level of leadership/ministry training and development. Districts are using PI as a powerful tool to equip ministers and Pastors. In fact, PI is being used all across the globe for a variety of ministry training opportunities!
Join us for the journey. #PurposeFinders #findyourpurpose
