With regards to the decentralised nature of protestant churches, it definitely has its advantages and disadvantages, just as hierarchy does. Sometimes hierarchy done well can be a beautiful thing, it can also be abused by unscrupulous people 🤷🏽‍♀️. 
It's probably going to take me a while to discern a path for this one aspect of orthodox belief. I don't think I could ever convert to Orthodoxy though because that would mean no more worshipping with my hubby and community and that I believe would be the morally incorrect choice for me and my family.
