Just six or seven of us to start the first Lord's Day of the month with communion. We were about double that for the main service with a good number listening in on Zoom. I did a Lloyd-Jones and kept my overcoat on (as he often would in his later ears), it was so cold. I did another in the series on things to meditate on, namely the four last things. There was a lot of material. I smuggled in some 18 points - don't tell anyone. In the evening it was all on zoom. Carrying on with Luke's Gospel we looked at Chapter 5:1-11 and that went well. We were joined by Andrzej Kempcinski from Legionowo in Poland (where it was -11 degrees on Sunday). He keeps very cheerful despite the many difficulties. It was good to hear from him again, stirring us up to pray.
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.
