We finished off with a trip to the Wesley Museum across the street. We were very kindly given a free guided tour. It's a fascinating story. More here. The guide seemed to be mainly interested in the social history. Methodism is rather different to what it was in Wesley's day, sadly.
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.
