We briefly talk about how the Fine Tuning of nature for life initially gave him confidence that a God exists, but his interaction with God active in his life is what most contributes to his confidence now.

We discuss the relationship between odds, our confidence, and the truth. Music provided by Jim Rhodes, with Dan Harris on lap steel.
