AllMusic[1]

AllMusic editor Andy Kellman called the album "a pleasant surprise from CeCe Winans. It's a retrofitted return that should appeal to anyone with an appreciation for Brill Building pop, early Motown, the Staple Singers, and Aretha Franklin circa "Amazing Grace" [...] Each song's message cuts clean through."[1]
