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.

The fraternal again


It was good last Wednesday to meet up again with minister friends for our monthly fraternal, when we walk across the Heath. I think we were about nine this time round, including someone I'd not really met before. It was also someone's birthday and he very kindly stood us all drinks at the cafe halfway along. Good times.
