Critical reception.
In a positive review from 365 Days of Inspiring Media, Joshua Andre lauded Baldwin, describing the album as "a thoroughly enjoyable project that just may become better and better with each listen." Jesus Freak Hideout's Alex Caldwell stated in his review of the album: ""Evidence" may not be as wild as its title may suggest, but it's a great step forward for this up-and-coming songwriter and a good bit of evidence that worship music can be as varied and interesting as the geography that the writer comes from. Worship is both a deeply personal and corporate exercise all at the same time, and Evidence is a good case for both sides." Timothy Yap of JubileeCast stated in his review of the album: "Like many singer-songwriters, it's quite a challenge to record an album's worth of A class material, so there are bound to be fillers. Nevertheless, there are still some outstanding entries worth checking out."
