Suppose I've mostly used untyped programming languages
This is unlikely, unless you program only using bits - but that's not efficient or terribly fun. You probably mean that you've been using dynamically typed languages - which definitely have types, but do not have typed variables or a type checker to make sure that you're not, say, assigning an integer to a variable which holds strings.
It's possible that I may have written an article to address this already...

Why learn... a statically typed language?
