Yikes, that's nasty.

No. That's way worse than nasty.

You could stand up in the meeting and announce to all that the Lord has "really touched me lately about leaders who are evil shepherds," and then proceed to read those O.T. scriptures about how God will judge rotten shepherds who "lord it over the flock." Something like, "Weep and wail, you shepherds; roll in the dust, you leaders of the flock. For your time to be slaughtered has come; you will fall like the best of the rams." (Jeremiah 25.34)

Seriously though, I am a little too sarcastic at times. I better pray more before suggesting you actually do that. Perhaps others on the forum have a more gracious word for you.
