Church politics are worse than fan politics. If they are already so invasive that a former worship director can continue a power struggle through other members, healing the body may require amputation. There are a couple churches in Michigan I wouldn't consider visiting much less joining again, because the same power-hungry people are still in charge. In my opinion, your responsibility to your children outweighs responsibility to your children -- if crime in your neighborhood went skyrocketing, how long would you stay?
