My family and I have been dealing with issues at church. When I asked a trusted friend and elder at church for advice they went behind my back and told the pastor everything I said without my permission. The pastor just blew off our concerns blaming it on us. I'm at a loss as what to do and my husband and I have no one else to talk to. Do we try to work it out with the pastor, do we let it go (this is not the first time something like this has happened at this church and we always just let it go), do we move on to a different church? Please pray for wisdom, guidance, and direction that we would know what is best for our family. If God has a different place for us that he would make it very clear to my husband and I. But if we are to stay there then grace and strength for my family and I to persevere and "bloom where we are planted".

thank you
