When spiritual friendships become unbalanced by one person's certainty

Our book club has been meeting for eight years and somewhere along the way it became this deep spiritual community where we share everything, but now one person keeps dominating conversations with their religious views and the rest of us don't know how to address it without destroying what we've built. We're all walking around the elephant in the room and it's killing the intimacy we used to have.
