His parents weren\u2019t Christians, and Christ was never a topic of discussion. When Carter was two years old, his parents divorced and he was thrown into daycare. Throughout his time in daycare during those developmental years, Carter began forming a severe anxiety disorder that continued into middle and high school.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cI was anxious around people,\u201d Carter says. \u201cI struggled with making friends and having friendships growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">Without the ability to talk to people and develop relationships, a future seemed hopeless. The only thing he really felt comfortable doing, and really enjoyed, was playing baseball. After graduating high school, Carter searched for colleges with baseball teams. That\u2019s when <a href=\"https:\/\/gracechristian.edu\/blog\/team\/colton-wolfe\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Coach Wolfe<\/a> from Grace Christian University reached out to Carter and invited him for a tour.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cI believe it was God, honestly,\u201d Carter says. He had no intention to travel for school but the baseball team appealed to Carter, so he decided to visit. \u201cWhen I first came on campus, <a href=\"https:\/\/gracechristian.edu\/blog\/pastor-honored-for-service-in-community\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pastor Rick<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gracechristian.edu\/about\/office-of-the-president\/meet-the-president\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">President Kemper<\/a>, and every faculty member talked to me like they knew me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">A pleasant surprise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cI walked on this campus and felt a draw to it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">Carter built relationships with his teammates and professors. For the first time in his life, it felt easy. The community at Grace pulled him in, and that was something he never felt before.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cGrace is very personal, and that\u2019s where we are different,\u201d Carter says. \u201cThat was something I really needed.\u201d He knew he wanted to explore the Christian faith but didn\u2019t know where to begin.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\"><strong>Finding Christ and a New Direction<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">At a place like Grace Christian University, that\u2019s not a problem.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cI didn\u2019t know what accepting Jesus meant, so that took me a while,\u201d Carter says. \u201cI got really close with Pastor Rick and we dove into my beliefs, and that led me to become a Christian and accept Jesus.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>New to the faith, Bible classes were foreign for Carter, but he put in effort and that paid off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cCommunicating with your professors makes a world of difference,\u201d Carter says. The professors at Grace care about students and their success and well-being in and out of the classroom. Now Carter is in the business program and is interested in sales\u2013a field that requires relationships and communication, a once impossible avenue. But through Christ, all things are possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"196\" data-end=\"321\">\u201cIt\u2019s the best thing I\u2019ve ever done, honestly,\u201d Carter says about coming to Grace. \u201cAnd I\u2019ve made the best friends I\u2019ve ever had.\u201d<\/p>\n<div style=\"border-left: 5px solid #00677f; padding-left: 30px;\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2660\" data-end=\"2891\"><strong data-start=\"2660\" data-end=\"2681\">Emma Wodowski &#8217;25<\/strong> is a student in the communication program and plans to pursue non-profit work after graduation.
