We have a long tradition of honoring those in public service who sacrifice a big paycheck to serve the rest of us. Most have non-descript jobs, but our government could not function without them.

Jaguar, the British luxury vehicle manufacturer, recently released an unsettling 30-second advertisement. For a creepy half-minute, a group of more-or-less androgynous characters in idiosyncratic costumes and hairstyles exit a yellow elevator and take up various unsmiling poses in front of the camera.

I first met Pastor Derek Buikema in my radio work around 2018. We broadcast my two-hour talk show from the Orland Park Christian Reformed Church (OPCRC) where he serves as lead pastor.
