An Amazing Summer
By Kalaya Beyer, CBM National Intern -
God changed lives this summer, here at Ponderosa Bible Camp, not only the kids but also the staff. An event lead to my ultimate change of summer position. I prayed to God quite often to allow me to work directly with the campers this summer. I did not want to be in an office; I thought I'd do better with the campers than answering phones. I was finally content with being in the office when God said “Nope, you got what you wanted.” Yes, it might have been totally unexpected, but I was overjoyed. I don't think I have ever ...
Being Still
By Kalaya Beyer, CBM National Intern -
Where do I even begin? Being on rotation at Camp Ta-Pa-Win-Go is honestly what I needed. Someone asked me, the morning I was scheduled to travel here, if I was anxious about coming here.

I had never understood why I needed to be in the Word of God all of the time. Last year I made the mistake of joining a different internship program that rarely had me in the Word, except on weekday mornings. I didn't realize how detrimental it would be to my spiritual life until month three when my life got dark. Without God being constantly around me and in my hand and in my thoughts, my vision for what He wanted me to do faded and I felt lost. So lost.
I am not blaming anyone for what happened to me last year. I knew I was ...
