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.

I spent the day in Newport on Tuesday as my father is ill in hospital in the Gwent. He didn't seem too bad. He was telling people about my book, like any proud father. It is always nice to be there even though I am a stranger. It holds a lot of memories. I enjoyed having a cuppa in the market. I notice the bookshop has gone. Do people in that part of the world read? I travelled by coach at a reasonable price adn time. It makes for a long day though.
