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.

Week of Prayer February 2026

 We had a week of prayer meetings last week, which we try to do twice a year.  We held six prayer meetings, two early in the morning, two in the evening and then one on the day and a final prayer breakfast on the Saturday. It was slightly different this time in that our evening meetings were on Tuesday and Wdnesday (rather than Wednesday and Thursday) and the day time prayer eeting was on the Thursday. Also, we did not sing at all this time, which is not our usual pattern. It was good to see people at each meeting and to take art. We too easily forget how important prayer is.
