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.

Evangelical Library Lunch Time Zoom Lecture Robert Strivens


It was good to zoom in once again for a lunch time lecture in connection with the Evangelical Library. Thsi time round it was Dr Robert Strivens on Calvinistic Baptist Colleges in Wales in the 19th century. Being a Calvinistic Welsh Baptist I was obviously drawn but it was interesting anyway. Robert helpfully explained the origins, as far as possible, of the three colleges (Abergavenny which moved to Pontypool to Cardiff, Haverford West which moved to Aberystwyth and Llangollen whoch moved to Bangor). Well worth hearing when it appears on our YouTube channel.
