CBM Intern – How can God Use a Guy Like Me
By CBM intern, Matt Presley -
Perhaps one of the most pressing questions on this path God has me on as a CBM National intern is how can God use a guy like me to reach youth and guide them to Him? Sometimes I wonder how I can relate, given the age gap. I don't have much experience in camp life or with kids in general. I've had more of a selfish outlook than a servant’s heart for a long time. This experience as an intern is all so new to me. I'm learning as I go. What I find awesome though, is how easy these things come to me when God presents the opportunity. He always gives us ways to grow and realize who we are in Him, as long as we're ...
What We Do Will Vibrate Through Eternity

Children Say the Darndest Things
Art Linkletter said that children say the darndest things. Well, here’s a little chuckle for you. While presenting the gospel at one of our clubs, the speaker first talked about how much God loved each one. Then he continued to explain that we had all been born with sin. He asked if anyone knew what we were all born with, looking for the answer of “sin”. One little girl proudly raised her hand and gave her answer—“ a belly button!” Jesus loves children and said, “whoever welcomes a little child like this ( he must have had one in his arms) in my name, welcomes me” (Matt 18:5) Children’s Bible Ministries welcomes ...
