[4] Jobe said "I felt the first record needed to be peaceful and more acoustic sounding in order to help people connect with God through it.

[6] Alpha Omega New's Rob Snyder graded the album an A, and said "the very real lyrics often have a reoccurring theme in that God is around even when 'it all just falls apart' (Steady My Heart).

[8] Christian Manifesto's Lydia Akinola said that "however, I feel that in an effort to appeal to an even wider audience, in a push for a more poppy and accessibly sound, some of the aesthetic purity that made Jobe's debut so successful has been sacrificed.

Jobe collaborated with Matt Maher performing a beautiful duet on "We Exalt Your Name" and also worked with fellow Dove winner Chris August on "Stars in the Sky".

[11] Christianity Today's Andrew Greer said "Where I Find You raises the bar, expanding her worship sensibility and solo pop sweetness by enlisting major hooks to showcase radio-ready co-writes (with the likes of Matt Maher, Lincoln Brewster and Hillsong's Mia Feldes).

"[12] Greer wrote that "despite some sleepy clichés, Jobe's sensitive evocations make apparent her genuine worship music background.

"[13] Indie Vision Music's Jonathan Andre said "the result of this realisation is 12 songs of raw passion, honesty and devotion to the God of the universe.

With such moving and emotional lyrical content, Kari is able to allow the listener to encounter and experience the Lord's promises and truths upon their life, praising and exalting Him in the process.

"[14] Andre wrote that "with the rise of many worship artists like Chris Tomlin, Christy Nockels, Meredith Andrews, Matt Maher, and Martin Smith; Kari Jobe stands tall with each of these musically diverse artists, with her soaring vocals and vulnerability serving as a strength in this album, about pure adoration, wonder and marvel towards the King who has won her heart.

[14] Jesus Freak Hideout's Jen Rose said that "Where I Find You plunges straight into the arena-filling sound of artists like Chris Tomlin and Hillsong.

This is the dilemma pointed out by many critics of the genre, and it's a bit disappointing to have that 'heard it before' feeling, especially considering the beauty of her more restrained pieces or the fun of her pop radio single.

[2] Louder Than The Music's Jono Davies said "The only negative point that I can bring out about this album is that some of tracks can seem to take the same pattern of style.

One of the reasons you buy an album like this is because you want to hear the strong vocals of Kari Jobe and for me they have become even stronger, richer and much more delightful to listen to.

Some people might miss that eccentric earthiness, but regardless, it's hard not to enjoy the smooth and stirring melodies found on this project, especially when they each hold such a profound meaning.
