The similar phrase 'Worldly Christianity' is one used by Bonhoeffer. It's J Gresham Machen that I want to line up most closely with. See his Christianity and culture here. Having done commentaries on Proverbs (Heavenly Wisdom) and Song of Songs (Heavenly Love), a matching title for Ecclesiastes would be Heavenly Worldliness. For my stance on worldliness, see 3 posts here.

Hope you like bloggin'

In a shameless attempt to get me to plug his blog (;-)) Exiled Preacher Guy Davies has put an interview there with yours truly. Click here. It may explain one or two things. Thanks Guy.

Such cynicism, Gary. I'd have published the interview even if you'd dissed my hot dog*.

I notice from my stat counter that the interview has sent some extra traffic in your direction!

"We're blogging, we're blogging ,we're blogging..."

* "hot dog" is Taffy rhyming slang for blog
