In the diocesan newspaper there was a list of recent church worthies, both clergy-people and not, who had received a gong from the government. The equivalent to my mind of a primary school merit award or a boy-scout achievement medal.
Matthew 6:2-16 sprang to mind.
Why would one bother?
What is the point?
I would be humiliated by such a bauble.
Actually I did get a badge from the government once.
As a kid I was in a radio club. The government sent me the club badge. That's good enough for me!
