Grudem’s quote from the intro to Should Christians Embrace Evolution? Biblical & Scientific Responses (2009): “Evolution is secular culture’s grand explanation, the overriding ‘meta-narrative’ that sinners accept with joy because it allows them to explain life without reference to God, with no accountability to any Creator, no moral standards to restrain their sin, ‘no fear of God before their eyes’.”
