[8] Ben Lilford, rating the album a six out of ten from Cross Rhythms , says, " It doesn't deserve to but it will probably sell millions." [3]
Indicating in a four star review by Christianity Today , Russ Breimeier describes, "Spoken makes a triumphant emotionally charged return on A Moment of Imperfect Clarity." [2] Josh Taylor, signaling in a four star review at Jesus Freak Hideout, comments, "This is Spoken's best work to date, period." [4] Assigning the album a five out of five for The Phantom Tollbooth, Len Nash replies, "Before people start to shun Spoken, taking some time to check out the new sound and reading some of the lyrics will allow the listener to make the best educated decision possible." [5] Josh Marihugh, allocating a four and a half out of five review from The Phantom Tollbooth, responds, "While this CD may not be quite as musically groundbreaking as Echoes, it's definitely a fine album, full of well-crafted melodic modern rock and beautiful lyrics."
