Awarding the album three stars at CCM Magazine, Matt Conner states, The Remission Flow "brings a fresh flavor to familiar refrains of God’s grace and biblical images".[1] Danny McMartin, rating the album an eight out of ten for Cross Rhythms, writes, "'Rhythms Of Grace' keeps the standards high."[3] Giving the album four stars from New Release Tuesday, Marcus Hathcock describes, "If you're looking for the passionate marriage of hymnlike choruses and artful arrangements, this is your band."[7] Derek Walker, indicating in a 3.5 out of five review by The Phantom Tollbooth, says, "If the band works on its lyrics, while retaining its emotional clout and irresistible melodies, The Remission Flow could connect with a lot of people."[8]
Josh Hamm, rating the album three stars for Indie Vision Music, writes, "The Remission Flow leaves me conflicted: Rhythm Of Grace still has vestiges of the cliché riddled CCM that drove me away from most mainstream worship acts, but they have a spark of creativity and a refreshing purpose behind their music that sets them far from the madding crowd."[4] Awarding the album five stars at Louder Than the Music, Jono Davies states, "it's a top quality album from a top quality outfit."[6] Jim Wilkerson, giving the album a 4.5 out of five from The Christian Music Review Blog, says, "All in all this is a really good album and it was refreshing to hear something unique."[2] Signaling in a 9.5 star review by Jesus Wired, Iain Moss describes, "Rhythms Of Grace is astonishingly good, and a marked improved from The Light That Floods, but, as is the case with almost every album, there’s always room for improvement."[5]
