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.

Day off Week 47


This week's day off was similar to last week. My main task was to read more of this big book on John Cennick that I am reading - I managed less than last week I'm afraid. I have received as a Christmas gift a boxed set of Jan Akkerman CDs and I made a start on listening to them with the first four albums (Talent for Sale, Profile and the two albums made with Kaz Lux, Eli and Transparental) - very enjoyable. I also took Alffi for a walk and had a coffee, of course. I also did some blogging and a little more work on a Christmas project I have in mind. Was up quite early this morning and so went to bed early reading a Christmas detective novel I have started slightly early.
