Hope Outreach Ministries Inc. December of 1983 in Chicago Illinois.

Hope Bible Institute & Seminary is an outgrowth of Hope School of Ministry formerly known as Hope Biblical Institute a program division of

Hope Outreach Ministry Inc.

Dr. Brinson as Founder and Dean began to teach bible classes, hold workshops and lead seminars related to Kingdom building and training those seeking ministerial certification, license and ordination in 1983.

In 2002 Hope School of Ministry became an Affiliate of Midwest Christian College & Seminary located in Munster and Schererville, Ind. Dr. Brinson served for two years as its Dean and on the Faculty. Unable to grant degrees in the state of Illinois this affiliation provided us with the opportunity to transfer our student’s remaining 16 hours of study into Midwest Christian College & Seminary share faculty, graduate and grant students degrees.

In 2004 Hope Bible Institute & Seminary under the Authority of Hope Outreach Ministries Inc., was duly authorized to grant its own degrees as a result of receiving a Certificate of Authority to operate as an Illinois Non-Profit Foreign Corporation exclusively for Religious, Educational and Social purposes in the state of Indiana.

Hope Bible Institute & Seminary now serves as the Umbrella that consolidates the teaching ministries of The Hope School of Ministry and the training ministries of Hope Outreach Ministries Inc. and its’ consortium of related Bible Institutes, Schools of Ministries and Teaching Ministries in the HOMI Fellowship/Reformation Network.

God is continually blessing this educational ministry and those students currently enrolled in our classroom and distance learning programs.
