I been playing on the praise team at my church for years, recently our pastor of ten years retired and we are trying to get used to the interum pastor and my church has been turned upside down because everyone is leaving and no one is coming in to take their place. We have a few members who like to see themselves as higher than others and they let people know it, at times I have been tempted to just stop, but i just couldn't I felt like the Father was putting me through this to make me stronger and it did. I don't know if you like to read but a good book to read around this time of year is 40 Days of Purpose by Rick Warren, it is a great book and talks about all sorts of things like how through times of trouble you grow in faith and come out stronger if you don't just give up. We have alot of people at my church who hate having the praisw team because they say it is to upbeat for a congregation of our size (roughly 150) but our praise team has stuck it out and become great becasue of it. I hope this helps, sorry to hear about your situation I hope God helps you make the right decision. (I hope i typed this in the right section)
