I would like to know the reason for the split in her church. In my experience, it's usually over conservative/liberal lines.

You've probably already read this by now, but just in case you haven't:

For years, Miers has been a member of Valley View Christian Church, but she and about 150 of its 1,200 active members have formed the separate congregation after a disagreement about worship styles.

Valley View has adopted a more contemporary flavor in its worship services, among other changes, as it tries to attract young families in the neighborhood where the church moved five years ago. The breakaway group favors a more traditional approach.
