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.

Luther on preaching



Another via Iain Murray. This from Luther (in a letter may be):



I have never troubled myself with fears about not preaching well, but I have often been troubled and terrified that I must stand in God's presence and speak of his great majesty and glorious nature. Therefore, only be strong and pray.
