Look here for a round up of 10 great books from 2007 by Dr Joel Beeke. it's in two parts. Part two here. The list:
1. Herman Bavinck, Reformed Dogmatics (vol. 1, vol. 2, vol. 3).
2. George Marsden, Jonathan Edwards: A Life
3. Michael Haykin, The God Who Draws Near [Biblical Spirituality]
4. Brian Edwards, Why 27?
5. James Durham, Christ Crucified [72 Sermons on Isaiah 53]
6. Andrew Gray, Loving Christ and Fleeing Temptation
7. Herman Selderhuis, Calvin’s Theology of the Psalms
8. Sidney Rooy, The Theology of Missions in the Puritan Tradition
9. Steven Lawson, The Expository Genius of John Calvin
10. Octavius Winslow, Our God
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.
