Vineyard Bible Institute
Vineyard Bible Institute (VBI), with its world headquarters in Urbana, Illinois, is a world-wide Christian on-line school with local sites in over 20 countries.
==History==
VBI was birthed in Anaheim, California in the 1990s and initially ran as a tape-based, correspondence bible school.〔Jackson, Bill. ''The Quest for the Radical Middle: A History of the Vineyard'' (Cape Town: Vineyard International Publishing, 1999) p. 273〕 Dr. Derek Morphew, Vineyard scholar and pastor located in Cape Town, South Africa, was solicited by Bob Fulton (with John Wimber’s endorsement, the founder of the association of Vineyard churches) to assume leadership in 1997. At its relaunch in May 2000, an internet-based curriculum with full-text materials replaced the older tape-based correspondence. Having the school on the internet ensured its accessibility to the Christian community worldwide and kept running costs and student fees to a minimum.
In 2006, VBI took a significantly progressive step forward when Derek and Dr. Quinton Howitt, Derek's academic colleague and lecturer at South African Theological Seminary, constituted a partnership with St. Stephen's University on the East Coast of New Brunswick, Canada, whereby St. Stephen’s became VBI’s degree issuing confederate for their recently developed four year Bachelor of Christian Studies programme. In 2009, Derek Morphew entrusted leadership of VBI over to Happy Leman, who functions as its current CEO. VBI is based in Urbana, Illinois, with Jim Egli (President as of May 2013 when the former President, Jeff Augustine resigned) and Dorothy Carlson overseeing the daily operations as the VBI Administrator as of May 2013.
