| Dan,
I would echo all of the advice that's been put forward. Try to find unity where you can, be a light, and let your speech be seasoned with the gospel of grace. Put on the bowels of compassion toward others and pray that God would sanctify the minds of those who you're close to.
In my experience it is incredibly difficult to be in the situation such as yours. My wife and I were in the same situation 3 years ago not as members of a church but as staff ministry leaders. It came to the point where we in good conscience could no longer attend the church nor support the leadership. It was a difficult decision but the Lord was very gracious to us when we decided to leave.
