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.

Kate Rusby at the Cadogan Hall


We went off to a concert last night down in central London. We took public transport to Sloane Square and had a nice vegan meal at a Wulf and Lamb. We were in our seats in good time for an excellent concert in two haves. We've only been to Christmas concerts before so it was good to see the regular type concert. We had lots of chat and lots of songs, mostly from Thirty and Hand me down (including Ghost, Three little birds, If I had a boat, Maybe Tomorrow, We will sing, Jenny, Cruel, Hunter Moon and Only desire what you have) and a short session from the excellent five piece band. We ended with Blooming Heather and then Underneath the Stars as an encore. Great evening.
