Hypocrisy from Minister, Board & Staff

By: /u/Clear_Midnight5263 β€”

I'm looking for someone to point me in the right direction. I have witnessed terrible hypocrisy as a staff person at my Unitarian Universalist church. There's so much to say, but first I will say that the minister calls the UUA too "woke", and has discussed wanting to break away from the UUA. I actually found information too that back before they became a minister, they ran for office as a Republican candidate. I honestly don't understand what "called them to ministry", as they have had multiple complaints made against how rude they are, and I even heard that some liken them to Dolores Umbridge from the Harry Potter series.

What's so disorienting is that it is blatantly obvious that the minister is just in this for their benefit, their sermons are purchased templates and trite, and I've witnessed them talk poorly about church members. The thing is, yes, there's a chunk of people who don't like the minister, but they don't openly express it. And as for the rest, they worship the ground the minister walks on. For example, the minister is able to spend without discretion and is putting this church in a financial crisis. All this being said, the church unfortunately is probably going in a direction from which it will not be able to recover, it is just a slow burn at this point. But I am a person who is passionate about justice for justice's sake, and would appreciate being pointed in the right direction so that this church doesn't turn into a cult with a narcissistic leader. I mean, there's no checks and balances. They have full power. Anyways, I'd appreciate any help or guidance. Thank you!
