My Mission Trip Pack List
By Tawny Austin
Hey, I'm Tawny! I've been a missionary with CBM since Fall of 2017 and have served in Honduras full-time since October 2019. Surprisingly, before moving to Honduras, I had only been on one mission trip, and it wasn't even a "typical" mission trip. I went to Japan with my husband in 2016 for a month, over one of our college summer breaks to help out with a VBS program, English classes, and some other ministry work. We moved to Honduras a few years later and, after a few teams came to work with us, was the first time I saw what the "typical mission ...
FROM THE VAULT: The Meaning of Easter
Compiled from a newsletter written by Scott Brinson
Opening written by CBM Intern Jaelynn Woullard
Looking through different files about CBM history, I stumbled upon this story from one of the newsletters by Scott Brinson, the director of CBM of the Great Southwest.

I have been doing a two-week study on leadership and I remember things better when I write them down. This is what I can tell you: I have been closely observing the leaders that have been placed above me; watching what they do with the people they are placed in charge of and how they respond to the different things they are faced with daily. This is one of the best times to be doing this study, because it is during the pandemic known as the COVID-19. Watching all the different leaders around the world, not only the people whom I see ...

Written by Katelyn Bailey
How do we know what God has gifted us to do? Once we know what our gifts are, how do we use them to glorify Him? In this blog we will look at how God has answered these questions in my life, to give you an example and a starting point to look at in your own life.

Effective Communication and How It Helps Our Team Function
Written by Gracie Kinsey
Relationships are one of the most valuable resources that God gave us when He created the Earth and everything in it. Everyone has had some sort of relationship in their life–whether it be a relationship with God, the people in your family, your friends, your roommate, your husband or wife, or even the Dunkin’ Donuts lady who takes your breakfast order every Monday–we’ve all got them. Relationships are a constant variable in our lives, and how we act and manage those relationships affects us in a really big way. In Genesis ...
