Drs. Dean and Kathy Shropshire have been preaching the Gospel full-time since Easter of 1989. Through chooselife CHURCH in Hobbs, NM and Dean Shropshire Ministries, countless lives have been impacted by hearing the truth of God’s Word in a simple, easy to understand way. 

In the fall of 2011, chooselife CHURCH and Dean Shropshire Ministries launched LIFE Internship for all 18-26 year olds who feel called to the ministry, want to take their relationship with God to another level, and/or learn more about God’s Word. For over 10 years, LIFE Internship has raised up the next generation to be soldiers in the army of God. 

In April 2020, in a camp meeting, Dr. Dean was prophesied over that everything he had in his spirit at the beginning of his ministry would happen in the next 3 years. And guess what? It did.

If Fall 2023, Life Bible Institute was launched. This accredited full-time Bible College combined what LIFE Internship started but made it available to everyone 18 years and older. Drs. Dean and Kathy were in their 30’s when they started in the ministry, and we are so grateful they had men and women to train under. Life Bible Institute is for everyone, regardless of age and season, to train and learn so they fulfill the call of God on their lives. 

If you are between the ages of 18-26, you will receive special, hands on accountability and training as a LBI Intern and for everyone over 26, you will receive powerful teaching and hands on training so you can become exactly who God designed you to be.
