We believe what we do in sight of the evidence provided.

What made you change your mind?
It was a number of things that slowly built up over time;
Inference/evidence of design, historical evidence for Jesus's existence and resurrection, my own experiences at the time and the testimonies of the Christians I had met.
It was enough for me to get started. It wasn't enough for it to be useful or simply believing it because it sounded great. There had to be evidence and like you've said, I believe in sight of that evidence. Since then I've continued to look at the evidence.
That's just a brief overview
