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.

Great Tube Advert

I'm not a tennis fan but I am interested in popular culture and for Wimbledon fortnight the sponsor's HSBC have this brilliant ad on the tube. This version has been cropped so you can't see the Cliff Richard CD in the bottom left hand corner but most of the other references are observable if you click above. Do look out for Tim Henman. Let me know if you spot any really subtle ones. There should be more than ten! (If you count the Cliff Richard).
PS I can see the Cliff Richard CD after all - down on the right next to the Wimbledon mug!
