We had a full and in some ways eventful day last Lord's Day. At about 10 am my wife reminded me that there was communion in less than half an hour's time. I was able to me a good recovery, I hope. We had a good number in the morning when I preached from Luke 9:17-22. I felt the sermon manuscript lacked illustrations but it preached well, I felt. We then had lunch with one of the deacons and his family. That was nice. In the evening I preached on Amos 5. People seemed to be distracted during one of the readings.
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.

I have never known a pastor to take a black cat into their pulpit. I hope the sermon made it purr....
As long as you don't think I was seeking good luck!
