I need help, well really just need to talk with someone who is understanding. Please, only give advice if you've been where I've been or are there now. I'm not trying to be rude, it's just that I've had enough of pretending. Can someone function in the world as a Christian? I went to a Christian school for 8 years of my life and was entirely sheltered from all else that existed. It's my third year in the real world and I'm pretty sick of it already. I've done some things I'm not proud of and I'm not sure if it's too late to get back on the right track. Does God turn his back when we turn ours?
