According to the American Bible Society’s State of the Bible 2016, powered by Barna Group:
"Seventy-five percent of Americans believe the
Bible contains everything a person needs to known in order to live a meaningful
life, according to The Bible in America, a new report from American
Bible Society and Barna Group.
The report, which considers six years of
annual research from American Bible Society's State of the Bible survey
and four years of annual research from the Bible-Minded Cities report,
indicates that Americans hold the Bible in high regard. Eighty percent of
Americans view the Bible as sacred literature, 64 percent believe the Bible has
more influence on humanity than any other text and 75 percent believe the Bible
is the inspired Word of God. And although just one-third of Americans profess
to reading the Bible at least once per week, the majority of Americans (62
percent) express a desire to read the Bible more often."
