Finding a Calling – Horse Ministry

By CBM National Intern, Ryanne It’s amazing to think about how God brought me to this place. A year ago I was pursuing working in a church in a different state; camp ministry wasn’t even close to being on my radar. God used one phone call to change my whole life. Not only has He given me a new direction, but He has also given me a clear calling and vision for what He is asking me to do --  horse ministry. I am not a visionary. I have always been the one who looks at someone else’s big picture and sees all of the little details that have to happen to make that ...

Leadership Skills – CBM Interns

By CBM National Intern, Tori Hi, my name is Tori, and I'm one of the CBM National interns. I am starting my 8th month of the internship and I'm halfway through my second camp rotation.

Over the next few weeks, I hope you start to see the full spectrum of CBM through our (the interns’) stories....

By CBM National Intern, David After the four months of training and equipping time spent at CBM headquarters, I was stationed at Camp Ta-pa-win-go in Watauga, TN for the first of three CBM area ministries rotations. My schedule there would allowed me to work with nearly every full-time missionary on staff: -I worked a few days with Aaron, who is over maintenance, helping get wood for the wood stoves that most of the buildings use for heat in the winter. I also helped dig a trench for a large drain pipe. -I worked with Kathy, the Director’s wife, while we ...

Internship Program at Children’s Bible Ministries

By CBM National Intern, Ada Hello!  My name is Ada and I am one of the 5 inaugural interns for CBM National!  Our internship is one whole year, in which we have 4 months of Bible and administrative classes followed by 7ish months of rotations at 3 of CBM's different locations.  Of course, they won't be having summer camp that whole time, so what exactly do we do when we are there?  That is a very good question.               During my first 2 of the 7 months of rotations, I was at Camp Ozone in Rockwood, TN.  It was just acquired by CBM last year so ...
