From what I know, that although the Board initially agreed to severance verbally when his resignation was discussed before he resigned, once they saw the financial abuses they went back on the agreement. Had they known how egregious the financial matters were they never would've agreed in the beginning. TB was really in no position to negotiate from the outset.
Also there were friends of the SILs who made a push for them to get a severance. The leadership wanted to wait to assess the church's financial capabilities. This group of folks kept demanding a vote at the business meeting and so it went to a vote and lost. I was told the leaders were open to the idea to give the SILs something, but their friends were so adamant they ended up losing the whole issue.
Since then a group of 80-100 people have left, mostly the ones who wanted this severance for the SILs. I was told most of them are driving to Jackson, TN to attend a UPC church there.
