Matt Conner, awarding the album three and a half stars from CCM Magazine , states, "Even slower numbers are straightforward yet memorable, which make them easy to pick up and hold onto in meaningful moments." Rating the album three and a half stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, Christopher Smith writes, "Finding Favour can sometimes sound too comfortable following in the tracks (now more like a paved superhighway) of their pop-worship contemporaries, but they have enough personality and distinctiveness to make this album an enjoyable Christ-focused listening experience." [7] Sarah Fine, giving the album three and a half stars for New Release Today, describes, "Despite some flaws, there are glimpses of excellence on this record worthy of your attention." [8] Awarding the album a 3.5 out of five by Christian Music Review, Lauren McLean says, "Reborn is a great album, and I believe that it's an album that the young and old alike will love." [6] Jonathan Andre, awarding the album four and a half stars at 365 Days of Inspiring Media, writes, "Reborn is perhaps one of my favourite albums, period, in 2015 so far, with the unique execution of worship, country, pop, folk, acoustic, and CCM all within the 11 songs." [3] Rating the album three and a half out of five from The Phantom Tollbooth, Michael Dalton says, "This is easy to like; a welcome relief from one style of worship." [9] Scott S. Mertens, giving the album a two and a half out of five at The Phantom Tollbooth, states, "Reborn shows promise." [10] Indicating in a 4.0 review at The Christian Beat, Abby Baracskai recognizes, "these guys have created a rock solid first full-length album." [5]
