From an interview with J.I. Packer....
"[The problem of cultural Biblical illiteracy within our churches] is partly due to modern life being filled with so many things, you know, but also the attitude that you can get by in this world with only a smattering of knowledge about anything. As
Christians, we are to be different than the world around us. In
particular, we are to attain a fuller knowledge of the Word of God, whereas the world around us hasn’t got a fuller knowledge of anything."
