I couldn't resist this collection of short stories by P D James when I saw it the other day. I enjoyed last Christmas's Mistletoe murder collection and thought this would be nice too. I've read it already partly because it is not as Christmassy as the last one, only one story being really of that sort. It is an interesting phenomenon the detective story and the late P D James is clearly a master of it. Very enjoyable.
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.
