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.

Romeo and Juliet

Eleri and I enjoyed being at the ballet this week. We saw the English National Ballet doing Prokofiev's Romeo and Juliet at the Coliseum. Good stuff! We very rarely attend the ballet but I'd prefer it to seeing a musical. We only know that one bit (ruined by the Apprentice) but it's a fine score and was a very good production.
