Twotimesadingo,
I have walked this path before, yet from the opposite side. Be very careful upon the path you choose. She is in college, she is questioning, she is searching. Great, wonderful! Everyone should have a time in life to do this. But never forget, once she goes home for the summer, Christmas break or for just a weekend she will be once again in the world she grew up in. What ever she learned and discovered on the outside will be suspect or assumed wrong. What we are taught as children is not so easily forgetten or ignored when standing with those who taught it.
This can and will raise issues, for her, for you, for your relationship. Issues you need to think of and prepare for ahead of time if you plan on continuing this journey with her.
Just as she is opening her mind, heart and soul to what it is like to be away from her spiritual base, so you must open yours when you are at hers. I am not saying you must be or become Southern Baptisit but you must be open to the experience just as she is in the absense from it.
