The Struggle is Real

Written by Kaytie Davis   From new tasks to simple tasks, I get stressed very easily. One little mistake I make, a flood of lies fills my head.  Now you can only imagine my first four months here at CBM (Children’s Bible Ministries) of being an intern. I’ve always had the mindset: do my best. But do my best for who? God or my superiors? One Monday afternoon Jacquelyn, my older sister and also our National Intern coordinator, gave me the simple task of creating a Graduation program. I asked her how she would like it to look and, I quote, she replied: “This is your project. You do it how you like.” Well, little Miss Kaytie ...

Written by Jerrid Currey   Ever since I was a child, I have been told that God had a plan and a purpose for my life, but I never really understood what that meant. For years I would wonder, “What is God’s plan for my life? What does He want me to do?

It all started about a year ago when my friend and mentor, Sean, recommended me to help out at a camp that I ...

Personal Learning Experience Through the Five Core Values

Written by Myles Morrison    When you join the CBM Internship, you are introduced to five program core values. These are five different areas for you to learn, grow, seek, explore, and demonstrate throughout your time as a CBM Intern and beyond. Some of them were harder to understand and practice than others, but without the accountability and practice of these things I would not be where I am today, better equipping myself for ministry.    Humility: This one was a really fun one to practice.

Will I Stay? (What to do when missions gets difficult.)

by Gracia Burnham   Stay?  Or leave?  Well, let’s see.   It might be good to remember the reason we got into this “job” in the first place.  God’s truth is so glorious that it MUST be shared.  We know the only solution to the sin and death problem that plagues mankind!  The need of man will never change–and the answer remains the same.  Jesus said, “Go.  And I will be with you!”  So, we go! Missionaries are real humans who experience life just like everyone else.  They aren’t super heroes as they are often portrayed by “the folks back home.”  And I don’t think that any of us go into ministry thinking ...
