Praise Charts[6]

Christian Music Review's Kevin Davis said, "this is a very solid debut album and fans of Rascal Flatts, 33Miles and Julian Drive will greatly enjoy Sidewalk Prophets."[1][2] He considered it "one of the best debut albums I’ve heard this year."[1][2]

Cross Rhythms' Paul Kerslake said, "this is full of catchy, poignant and impacting songs... an essential release".[3]

Jesus Freak Hideout's Scott Fryberger said, "It's safe to say that Sidewalks Prophets have an album on their hands that will be fairly popular on AC radio. Just about every song has 'hit song' potential."[4] Furthermore, Fryberger wrote that the album "is happy, encouraging and, overall, not too shabby. At times, the lyrics lack in songwriting quality, but definitely not in substance. A good recommendation for fans of any of the aforementioned bands, or Christian hit radio in general."[4]

Louder Than The Music Suzanne Physick said, "while some may shun this album for its lack of creativity, those who just appreciate good music and honest beautifully written sentiments will love this new offering from a truly great band."[5] She cited "Show Me How to Love", "You Love Me Anyway" and "You Will Never Leave Me" as the standout songs.[5]

Praise Charts CMSpin said, "Whether you like your music up tempo in the pop/rock vein, or piano driven and melodic, you'll be very satisfied after listening to the music that's found on These Simple Truths."[6] Plus, CMSpin called the 'Favorite Songs' on the album the following: "Just Might Change Your Life", "The Words I Would Say", "Give It All Away", "Lay Down My Life".[6]

Accolades

In 2010, the album was nominated for Pop/Contemporary Album of the Year at the 41st GMA Dove Awards.[7]
