New young pastors causing issues in the church and making strange remarks and decisions

We have new pastors at my church who are younger than the previous pastors. I am getting a weird feeling from them. I have felt a draw to leave and try a new church this past week. I have had conversations with them regarding my concerns and many other members feel similar about their leadership and express concern but there hasn’t been much change. I will give you some examples:

1. They quoted music lyrics in the sermon from a famous singer who is known for witchcraft and satanism.

2. They decided to fire the piano player that the church members fund because the piano player wouldn’t come practice with him an extra day without payment even though the piano player doesn’t need extra practice days because they are classically trained and play perfectly. He fired the piano player even though a few church members pay the fee to have him and took over playing other instruments himself when he doesn’t play well, he is not a musician, it disrupts the songs, and makes them sound bad

3. He made sarcastic comments to a group of church ladies who were working on set up for thanksgiving dinner, which is set up the same time every year. He decided to hold a meeting in the same spot right in the middle of the room where the ladies set up and when we were working around his meeting he says “ladies can you chill” with an attitude because we were disrupting his meeting however, like I said we set up the room for the thanksgiving event every year same time, and that meeting he held was not on any notice and is usually held in a different building every week or could have been held in a different room.

4. He called me beautiful 3x in situations where it was unnecessary and it seems unwarranted and inappropriate/pointless and once in front of his wife. One of the times was coupled with sarcasm at the end basically saying your beautiful despite what others say about you in a sarcastic tone which made it sound like others were talking about me.

5. He cut everyone from the service. There is no longer variety it’s all him all the time.

6. He tries to appeal to the youth in every aspect and his sermons are youth focused and very simplified to cater to the youth, leaving no options for spiritual growth for older congregation members and when asked about it he said he cares more about the souls of the youth than any other church members.

7. His wife came to the Thanksgiving set up event late. She is supposed to lead the group but she didn’t do anything just stood there looking awkward. Not speaking at all, watching while we all worked hard to set up for the event. Only a few people showed to help and most of the helpers were older women who can’t do a ton of heavy lifting so all hands were needed.

8. His wife boldly promotes the movie wicked and prompted church members to go see it with her and is vocal about how amazing it is on our church media outlets.

9. They failed to catch a play the church members were invited to which included songs repeatedly saying GD and impersonations of Jesus in a negative light. The invitation was from another church member to one of the groups the pastors wife is in charge of.

I could go on but I am being led to leave. I have attended this church for a long time and when these new pastors came I got a weird feeling but I tried to ignore it and have a good positive attitude and I was happy to see what they had to bring as leaders and give them a fair chance. Over the past few months though things have taken a weird turn and they seem in over their heads and not making the best decisions. When the congregation expresses this to them in a kind way it’s met with resistance and a little bit of ego of I’m the leader. I feel the holy Spirit pulling me to leave.

Has anyone else seen changes in their church that felt off and it’s led them to leave? My spouse doesn’t feel led to leave just yet but, expresses concern I have and wants to talk more to the pastor and is waiting for the right time that God puts on his heart. I feel God is telling me to stay away and go to a different church which my spouse supports and has said if I feel led to I should.
