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.

Janis


Everyone was talking about the aniversary of the Woodstock festival the other week. One of the headliners then was American blues singer Janis Joplin. Janis's face features here in an audio of the track Janis by Focus from their 1971 album Moving Waves. Jan Akkerman wrote it. Joplin had tragically died on October 4, 1970. I was not a fan of her music but this track is great.
