This Mystery received two positive reviews from music critics. At AllMusic, William Ruhlmann writes that Nordeman concerns herself with the life application of the Gospel rather than religious minutia, when he states that this "may not sit well with the more doctrinaire of Christians, but those who struggle daily with reconciling their faith to contemporary life are likely to respond favorably."[1] Founder Tony Cummings of Cross Rhythms says that "as art of the highest order, pop doesn't come much better."[2]

gollark: *But*, the RNG probably doesn't have memory of which ones were dropped, so it has just as much chance of dropping another silver as it usually would, except the system is weird and picks a new set every hour or so, so I don't really know.
gollark: See, from a perspective of having not seen *any* of the drops yet, the probability of two rares is lower than the probability of one, probably.
gollark: It'll be horrible, I tell you.
gollark: I mean, unless TJ09 actually implemented the RNG that way.
gollark: Gambler's fallacy.
