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 culturehere. 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.
Short Poem 28
The short poems series has been on the back burner over the summer and may not be revived but this epitomising poem by Steve Turner simply has to be included.
I'm at a loss to know why and how this is a poem; it's two sentences split into short lines. If I do that with this contribution, does it become a poem?

I'm at a loss to know
why and how
this is a poem;
it's two sentences
split
into short lines.
If
I do that

does it become a poem?

Though others may say - no way
Benfold, you're not a great poet,
and aren't we aware of that fact!
Perhaps, if you'd wrote ...
I'm at a loss
to know
why
and how
this is
a poem
... we might have felt different, look you, isn't it?
Brady, how about reading some poetry for us?
