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.

Two Days Off Week 26 2025


It's rare but I went for the two days off the beginning of this week and I think that was wise. I did have my regular meeting with my assistant and an hour with one of my deacons and looked over my sermons for next Sunday but it was mostly just reading. I finished the nice Wind in the Willows I had for my birthday and the book on encyclopedias I had for Father's Day plus one of my art books on Arcimboldo ) a re=read) and a little bit of another Hugh Martin book. We had a visitor here on Monday night and I watched some cricket with him (something I almost never do) on Tuesday night Eleri and I watched a bit of TV. I went out for a coffee at some point but didn't do the walking I should have.
