As for "her own tradition's understanding", it is objectively incorrect as it is at serious variance against the teachings of the One True Church.

She is quite faithful to her own tradition's understanding of the mission and ministry of Jesus. She didn't ask to have her hymns sung in your church. So please don't blame her if you didn't like it!

She is very adamant about the songs she chooses, and generally not open to other opinions. In fact she boasts that she knows more than most priests about the Catholic liturgy... a source of conflict with many priests that have come and gone in our parish.
