In December 2015, Jon & Valerie Guerra opened for Amy Grant and Vince Gill's "Christmas at the Ryman" concerts at the venerable Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, TN.[5]

Awarding the album four stars from New Release Today, Phronsie Howell states, "Jon & Valerie did a bang-up job bringing the Christmas spirit to listeners."[4] Of the track "Beginning to Feel like Christmas," Elmore Magazine states, "Jon and Valerie's new song is likely to find its way into your Christmas tradition."[6] Bersain Beristain, rating the album two stars at Jesus Freak Hideout, writes, "It's Almost Christmas might have more in common with...generic holiday selections".[2] Giving the album a nine out of ten stars for Jesus Wired, Rebekah Joy says, "Both Jon and Valerie carry such powerful, and beautiful voices, that blend together so well."[3]

Southern Living featured the duo with an exclusive video premier, and the album has also been featured in Acoustic Guitar, Fearless Radio, Relevant Magazine, The Daily Country, and HNGN.com.
