Believe in prayer and practice it too. Listen to all people. You could do worse. Religious people crucified Jesus. Everyone is under authority.
Pastors have different gifts - on purpose.
Criticism rarely ever is constructive. Jesus never quit the Synagogue or the temple, even though they were full of hypocrites. You or I or both of us could be wrong. No one comes to power but by God. We are not authorized to judge, qualified to judge, or worthy to judge.
