The absence of God in most spheres of life is perceived to be normal, and even Christians feel it as normal - which is why absorbing the culture all around us and its priorities is so dangerous.

Human beings were put on the planet to depend upon their Creator and to worship their Creator at every point in every sphere of culture.
