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.
Gwyl Dewi Sant
Yesterday was St David's Day, of course, and so like all Welsh people (you didn't?) we had cawl cennyn/leek soup and bakestones for tea. Owain, my youngest, also met the speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow who was involved this year in the annual St David's Day service in St Mary Undercroft. As usual, the London Welsh School took part, as did a male voice choir Eschoir. This time the children recited Ffrindiau bach a mawr and sang Dewi Sant.
