CBM Intern – A Cabin and a Mighty God

by CBM National intern, Jake Taylor  - Well, the time came and went. My time in the CBM Internship has ended! What a year it has been. I have traveled through a lot of the eastern United States going to my different rotations.  Watching how God provided was humbling. Money may have been tight but He proved, time and time again, that He would meet my needs. All I had to do was trust Him . It sounds so easy—just trust Him—but I found myself repeatedly trying to make it on my own; trying to put the pieces back together. The Lord was patient with me and, ...

Christian Intern – His Guiding Hand

By CBM National intern, Jake Taylor - So, I have begun my final rotation as a CBM intern. I am both excited and sad for this rotation in particular. I am excited because I get to serve this summer as a Senior Counselor at Camp Ta-Pa-Win-Go! However, I am sad because, after this rotation, I won't have much longer as an intern. I am so thankful for everything I have learned at each of the CBM areas I have been to.   I can't wait for summer camp to start here! I am slightly nervous for this opportunity because I have never been a counselor before. I know ...

CBM Intern – Let God Lead

By CBM National intern, Jake Taylor - As the end of my rotation at Camp Grace is around the corner, I find myself reflecting on my previous experiences. I realized that I had been looking at my past in the wrong light. When I worked at my former job I felt used and abused so I lashed out in anger at my boss, at my coworkers, even at the metal shelf I bumped my head on. I was so angry with my circumstances that I never thought about what I was learning. However, because of that job, I gained so many useful skills such as customer service and feeling comfortable ...

CBM Intern – You are Where He Wants You to Be

By CBM National intern, Jake Taylor -  Since beginning my first rotation at Camp Grace in North Carolina as a CBM National intern, I have done things I expected and didn't expect to do. I found I really enjoyed each of them. Now if you haven't met me, my personality is very “on the go,” get the job done as quickly, and as perfectly as possible. The little things tend to stick out to me; if I see a problem, I have to take care of it. So getting put in a situation where I have to slow down and be the arms and legs for someone else is challenging. I thank God ...

CBM Intern – His Guiding Hand

By CBM National intern, Jacob Taylor -  Hi, my name is Jacob Taylor and I would like to tell you how I got involved with Children's Bible Ministries(CBM) and what God has been teaching me these last few months during my time at the National office at the Tuckaleechee Retreat Center in Townsend, TN. I guess starting at the beginning would be a good spot, right? I was born in a town called Hanford, California, and throughout my life so far, I’ve lived as far south as Miami and as far north as Anchorage, Alaska. Back in 2011, I moved to Rainsville, AL. At the ...
