And so midway through my sophomore year, I withdrew from Brown. I shipped off to Lynchburg, Virginia. And I entered Liberty University as a student and an undercover writer. I was going to write a book about my time there.

And they forgave me, I mean, because, you know, like forgiveness is Christian crack or whatever. So they weren't mad. They were a little confused and they felt that they had actually not done their job by not converting me.
And so years after the book came out, just a little while ago, I gave her a call and we talked and caught up again and talked about the things in our lives that had been going on.
And he's the author of two books, Young Money and The Unlikely Disciple, which is all about the experiences you heard in this story.
