My living quarters were a small‚ rickety‚ 100 year old (and counting) hotel with paper thin walls shared with 99 other students. I left my sheltered home-school and was introduced to the modern‚ secular world of weird people‚ graphic videos of abortion‚ and the persecution of Christians in Sudan through science‚ history‚ theology‚ and
