Musical Style
As a whole, Casting Crowns has been observed as having a Christian rock, pop rock and rock sound. Some critics noted that the album sounds somewhat similar to the work of Chapman. The album's main instrumentation consists of guitar, keyboard, and violin. The album's lyrics, which have been described by music critics as "bold" and "straightforward", take an approach which was described by Russ Breimeier of Christianity Today as a "no-nonsense approach... tell it like it is, simply and with conviction".

“Creative force, like a musical composer, goes on unweariedly repeating a simple air or theme, now high, now low, in solo, in chorus, ten thousand times reverberated, till it fills earth and heaven with the chant.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The old saying of Buffon’s that style is the man himself is as near the truth as we can get—but then most men mistake grammar for style, as they mistake correct spelling for words or schooling for education.”
