The purpose of CBMC Young Professionals is to provide Gospel-centered leadership coaching in an authentic atmosphere for men under the age of 40. YP teams provide a safe environment to share life challenges both personally and professionally.
Today’s generations are seeking spiritual connection and meaning in life more than ever before. Men are looking for guidance and encouragement. We have a golden opportunity to reach them with the life changing and empowering truth of Jesus Christ and all He offers. We can do this through life-on-life coaching, local team involvement, and with our exciting special events! But we need your support to help us reach them!

My name is Scott Chetelat, and I recently had the privilege of attending CBMC’s 2024 National Men's Conference, The Call of Men, in St. Louis, MO. This experience not only deepened my understanding of CBMC's vision, mission, and purpose but also included a powerful moment where God spoke directly to my situation, resulting in radical transformation within the leadership team at my workplace.

College is often a formative time in one’s spiritual life. A college student may have access to many Campus ministry groups and have flexible time to pursue spiritual growth and engage in rich and fulfilling social interactions. Life after college is different. The responsibilities, opportunities, and day-to-day life routines will change– and the social networks will be different. Many Christians struggle to adjust because they don’t know how to make sense of the new environment and pace of life in the marketplace – or how to bring God into their occupation or workplace culture.
CBMC is passionate about developing leaders. Leadership coach training helps us to guide others in their walk with Christ to achieve life and career goals that honor God. CBMC’s approach to coaching places emphasis on reflecting the heart of Christ. The skills learned are life transforming! Many have told us it has changed the way they interact with their spouse, children, employees and friends. The next season of training will begin on October 12, 2024, at the Carroll Nonprofit Center (255 Clifton Blvd, Westminster, MD 21157).
