Giving the album three and a half stars from CCM Magazine, Matt Conner writes, "The tender acoustic set should please both Kutless fans who see a softer side as well as AC listeners".[2] Scott Fryberger, rating the album three stars for Jesus Freak Hideout, says, "Faith & Family is a pretty by-the-book Christian contemporary pop album."[5] In another three star review by the same publication, Christopher Smith states, "Faith & Family is a pleasing listen, but it lacks the components of a memorable record."[6] Awarding the album four stars at Christian Review Magazine, Christian St. John writes, "Every track on Faith & Family is well written and played."[4] Laura Chambers, giving the album a 3.6 out of 5 for Christian Music Review, states, "Faith and Family is a scrapbook of days past, struggles borne and hopes realized."[3] Rating the album three stars from Louder Than the Music, Philip Aldis says, "Faith and Family is a collection of perfectly produced sounds that sweetly pan from my left ear to my right."[7] Joshua Andre, awarding the album three and a half stars at 365 Days of Inspiring Media, writes, "With acoustic, worship and pop/rock all working together in harmony; Faith And Family is sure to wow us."[1]
