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 had a rest Wednesday but Thursday I was back to it at a pace, covering three and a half sections and at the end grabbing some lunch in Lower Marsh Street before heading to the Florence Nightingale Museum. More anon. I took the Northern line from Golders Green to Nine Elms and took a coffee at Sendero's. After a little difficulty I found the path again and walked from the new American embassy to Westminster Bridge. Sights on the way included Vauxhall Bridge, St George Wharf, MI6, Effra Island, Lambeth Bridge and Palace and St Thomas's Hospital with Parliament on the opposite bank, of course. Lovely weather but not too warm.
