I can relate with that. My wife's parents founded and pastored a church just like that. Whenever we would make suggestions as to the healsth of the church, we were met with condemnations of compromise and heresy. We finally left after spending nearly 20 years there. To this day, the church is pretty, but only family and very close friends go there, about 30 people. Sad, very sad.
