How the Internship Helped Me Have a Better Understanding of Ministry

Written by Jerrid Currey  Since joining the Internship, I have had the pleasure and privilege of learning more and more about ministry and God’s calling on my life. I have been in this Internship for a total of nine months so far and still have three to go but within just that short, amazing time I have learned more about ministry than I have in my whole life. I’ve learned that if you are going to be a missionary you must dive into it with everything you got because it is really hard work. I have learned this through the shared experience and guidance of Children Bible Ministries (CBM) missionaries throughout the areas of CBM. But to sum ...

“How the internship helped me become a better communicator”

Written by Jonathan Evans I’ve been in this internship for eight months. When I first arrived in September, I thought I was great at communicating. Turns out, this was not necessarily the case.

They walked me through the ...

A leader is someone who is a role model who can influence people with a vision of a ...

How the Internship equipped me to accomplish the Great Commission

Written by Zachary Douthit My name is Zachary Douthit. I am from Orange County, Virginia. It was some time ago when I was reading through the book of Matthew and stumbled upon the Great Commission "And Jesus spoke to them, saying "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you even to the end of the age"(vs.18-20). After reading this passage I figured I should do this sometime. I then booted up a video game and played it. ...

How the Internship Taught Me to Trust God!

Written by Rainey Rowell Dear Reader, my, name is Rainey Rowell, and you are about to read how the Children’s Bible Ministries Internship taught me to trust God. First, I will tell you how I got into CBM. I am from Rowland, North Carolina, it is about 10-15 minutes from one of CBM’s camps called Camp Grace.

It took me a while to do the application because I didn’t know if this was ...
