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 time, I looked at it like that was a bad thing; after all, a sixteen-year-old ...

CBM intern – Being a Humble Servant

By CBM National intern, -  Jordan Mancari If there were one major thing I'd say I've learned over the past 10 months of the CBM (Children's Bible Ministries) Internship, it's being a humble servant. But what exactly does it mean or look like to be a humble servant? Being a humble servant means a lot more than just saying and doing what you’re told or supposed to do. It means humbling and submitting yourself to doing the work of the Lord for nothing in return, whatever it that work may be. Whether it's mowing grass, pressure washing, or helping in the kitchen, etc. I would also take it a step further and say it means not complaining ...

CBM National Intern -Delight in Me

By CBM National intern, Jordan Mancari -  Over the past couple of weeks, I have been in Samson, AL at Camp Victory, on my second rotation as a CBM National Intern. During my time here, I have been helping with various different things, with one of those being Released Time. Released Time is one of CBM's programs where students are released from school once a month for 30-40 minutes and CBM missionaries or volunteers teach them a Bible story. With this, I've been fortunate to be placed in what I would call my comfort zone: teaching. Teaching is something I have always loved and as the verse says, we are called to be "disciples of all ...

8 Things That Happen When You Become a CBM National Intern

By CBM National intern, Stephanie Schwan -  1. You'll live on the move. Maybe college, working at camps over the summer, and general adulting have made you an old pro at this, or maybe you've never been away from home in your life. You'll live at CBM National HQ for four months, a camp for 3 months during the summer, and two other camps for two months each. Plus, you will go on an awesome overseas mission trip! All this moving around means you'll get really good at packing, unpacking, long road trips, and making it all fit in the car. (Unless you're me, in which case you're still working on this, lol.) All this moving makes you evaluate ...

CBM National Intern – Finding the Balance

By CBM National intern, Matt Presley - Finding the Balance For years I tipped the scales of my life in favor of feeding the flesh. Then for almost 2 years I was placed in a position where everything was  designed to feed the spirit. But when this time came to an end, I realized I was on the path of who I was meant to be as a child of God. My new phase of life doesn’t have as much stability and accountability, and I've wondered why God would put me in a position that lacked this.Why would an all-knowing God put me in a position to fail? But when you have a relationship with Him and trust Him and His guidance, you realize there is ...
