David Butler’s love for God is contagious and, in this episode, we discuss God’s love for His children and our love for Him. How does God balance His love as a father with his allowance of our agency? If He truly loves us, why doesn’t He always intervene in times of trouble?

God’s critics frequently refuse to accept the same burden of proof they demand of believers. In law, a foundational evidentiary protection is known as the burden of proof.
