Knowing about someone is completely different from having a relationship with them... The same can be said about our faith - Knowing about God and having a relationship with Him are completely different from each other.
Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. - Matthew 7:22-23 KJV
Are you learning more about God or are you growing in your relationship with Him?
Both are good, and please know that it is great to learn more about God and know more about the Bible, but the most vital thing we can do as Christians is to grow in our relationship with out heavenly Father.
Now what exactly does that mean: growing in our relationship with our Heavenly Father?
In short, I believe it is growing in our understanding that God truly exists realizing that God is more than just the story we read about in the Bible. Knowing without doubt that even when things look terrible, God will let things work out for the best.
This can only be achieved by reading through what the Bible is saying and realizing the truth behind it all. This comes through prayer and discussion with Him and other believers.
As I am writing this I realize I am simply adding more theory to a practical matter, but lets hope and pray that we all grow in understanding of the reality that is the God we worship. In Jesus name, Amen
