CBM National Intern – Count It All Joy
By CBM National intern, Mark Martens -
Have you ever had one of those days where everything seemed to be going right? You were going about your day, the sun was shining, and life just could not seem to get any better. But then you get some news that flips your whole world upside down. It just so happens that I recently had one of those days.
It all started one Friday morning on my summer rotation as a CBM National Intern at Camp Red Arrow. I received a call that made me a little apprehensive but I quickly put it in the back of my mind. I figured everything would ...
CBM National Intern-God’s Perfect Timing
By CBM National intern, Andrew Willis -
My first rotation as a CBM National Intern is to Camp Gilead in Polk City, Florida! I'm excited for many reasons. For one, I'm fond of my childhood memories and I love spending time reminiscing. I spent my childhood in Dade City, FL, only an hour from Camp Gilead. Of course, going back to Florida for sentimental reasons is just a bonus. Gilead was one of the camps which I was interested in going to on rotation. My interest was really piqued when I heard about their ministry using animals and how they tie the gospel into ...
Fellowshipping and Worshipping Servants
By CBM National interns, Scott and Jerri Carpenter -

The goal was not only to complete projects and tasks around camp, but to fellowship and worship together through each of these projects and tasks. We worked together, ate together, planned ...

Faith - strong belief or trust in someone or something.
"For we walk by faith, not by sight."
2 Corinthians 5:7
Taking a step of faith can be nerve-racking. When I applied for the CBM National Internship, I took a step of faith. I wasn't sure what I'd be doing or where I'd go.
"Putting our faith into action is all about taking the first step on an uncertain journey. As others who have made this journey will tell us, it's not the actual going that is difficult. It is 'going without knowing' that is a bit unnervi...
Perfect – Are You a Perfect Person?
By CBM National intern, Paul Daly -
Are you a perfect person? What about your life, is that perfect, too? Do you live in a perfect house with a perfect family that you are supporting with your perfect job? I hope the answers to these questions are obvious: NO. Nothing is totally perfect.
“Imperfection” really bothers me. In fact, I had a clever blog post all written out for you before this one, but the topic was sticky, the post was long, and my sentences didn’t make sense, so I scrapped it and wrote about something else. The post didn’t seem “perf...
