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 God’s creation. I also was interested in the many other outdoor ministries ...

5 things I’m praising God for in the CBM National Internship

By CBM National intern, - Stephanie Schwan The people Everyone I have met through the internship has had some word of wisdom, encouragement, or instruction for me. From my roommate to my bosses to my fellow interns, to volunteers, church members, guests, CBM veterans, missionaries, and pastors -- everyone God has brought across my path during the last few months has helped me grow.

Taking Ownership of your Gift

By CBM National intern, Matt Presley -    So much has happened here in the CBM National Internship since my last blog, leaving me so much I could talk about, from the classes we've taken, books we've read, and projects we’ve accomplished, to the youth group lessons and activities, volunteer work weeks, mission conferences, and camp visits. But what I'm led to talk about is "Ownership." That is, ownership of the life that God has given me. And, it's not until one takes ownership of that life that he can truly live it, take responsibility for it, and grow in it. I arrived at CBM National Headquarters having been given a new life and ...

CBM Intern-A Step Of Faith

By CBM National Intern, Andrew Willis -  Applying for this internship with CBM National was a big step for me in faith and trusting God. I was never one for joining a program without knowing the outcome or whether or not I would be financially stable or not. Just in the past three months, God has already taught me to rely on Him more, and He always provides for me in so many ways. I have become more confident in public speaking, teaching, studying, and sharing my testimony. Every time I get nervous of an opportunity to speak in front of a crowd or just feel overwhelmed with all I have on my plate, I remember Isaiah 41:10 "Fear thou not; for I ...
