CBM Intern – 3 Ways to Stay Focused on Christ
By CBM National intern, Priscilla Depew -
Hello everyone! My name is Priscilla Depew. I started the CBM National Internship back in September, and one of the things I've had to learn while being here has been focus. Normally, my focus jumps from object to object, never staying in one place. Before I started the internship, I would zone out during conversations, because I would get distracted. I still do sometimes, but it's gotten better. The reason it's gotten better is because I've prayed about it and figured out three ways to stay focused on Christ.

CBM Intern – Important things
By CBM National intern, Joseph Kirkland -
Traveling is probably one of the best ways to learn about the world and the people in it. You get to learn how others think, how others learn, and how big the world really is. The earth is 24,901 miles around at its widest point, and it would take around 33 hours to get around it at the speed of sound. If you were to walk 5 miles every day, you would walk around the world in 4,960 days, given that you could walk on water. The cost to travel around the world would be around $2,800, and would take around 6 days if flying by ...
CBM Intern – New Places with Great Changes
By CBM National intern, Jamie Carpenter -
A year ago, I never thought I would be where I am today (quite literally, who would have known I would ever live in Tennessee?!). The Lord has brought me through so much within these last twelve months and I am forever thankful to Him for that. I was so unsure about beginning CBM’s National Internship, just because I was afraid and I did not have any idea what to expect. My first day here in Townsend was pretty chill because I got here at 8 AM and everyone else wasn’t supposed to arrive until later that afternoon. ...

By CBM National intern, Stephanie Schwan -
Well, here we are. We made it, folks. The year is almost over and Christmas and the New Year is upon us! Where did the time go? For many of us, myself included, it flew by. 2016 has been a whirlwind of controversy, change, loss, and upheaval worldwide, but also of learning, growth, building, and hope. We know who is in control of it all, whether it feels like a time of unprecedented hope with a bright future gleaming ahead, or the brink of certain disaster with doom and despair looming on every side. Whether things ...
CBM Intern – A Servant’s Heart
By CBM National intern, Cati Watts -
Coming into CBM’s National Internship, I knew I would learn a lot but I had no idea how much. One of the first things I learned is that in ministry you do a lot of cleaning. As a National Intern, I am learning to clean just about everything! Dishes, toilets, floors, office spaces, baseboards; you name it, I have cleaned it! I never realized how important even just getting a table wiped off can be to the ministry. When I was growing up and would complain about cleaning, my mom would often quote Colossians 3:23-24, which says, ...
