This week I read a lovely little book by Derek Thomas on heaven called Heaven on earth. I also carried on with the book on Calvin mentioned recently John Calvin: for a new reformation. There was a bit of TV later in the day too and in the morning I more or less finished a painting I have been working on called The boys are back in town.
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.
