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