Antecedents and production
After promoting his previous album, Gente común, sueños extraordinarios, and having recorded his first live album in the Coliseo of Puerto Rico, Rodríguez began to devote time to the production of a new album. At the end of 2009, Juan Carlos announced via his Twitter account that the duo's album was in the pre-production stage and the title already was chosen.[5] In early 2011, the duo posted a video on YouTube of them working in the recording studio and previewed songs which would be on the album, such as the unreleased track "Estaré" which consists of electronic music and dancepop, marking the duo's first steps into both musical genres. The recording process lasted for two months in both Bryan Studio in the Dominican Republic and Fé Studio in Chandler, Arizona, United States.[6]
Attainments
The album managed to be in the number 2 spot of the most sold albums in Puerto Rico, according to Nielsen's SoundScan index. Thing by which his label VeneMusic (which forms part of Venevisión) congratulated to the duo by said attainment.

Their support continues to motivate us to give them the best music that we can make which leaves messages of love and hope".[7] The album was nominated for several prestigious awards such as the Latin Grammy for the category Christian Album in Spanish. Juan Carlos commented: "We are very humbled by the support we received both from our people and the members of the academy (LARAS) for nominating us for this award. It is a genuine honour for us to be considered for this award, and we want to congratulate the other nominees". Evelyn added: "When I found out that we were nominated for the Latin Grammy I welled up, as I thought about the fidelity of God and how he had fulfilled a dream of mine that I had had since I was a girl. Thanks to everyone who has supported us, without you none of this would be possible". Others of the nominations that attained was to the prizes of Christian music "Arpa" like Album of the Year, to the Premios Casandra (now appointed "Premios Soberano") as Best album of contemporary religious music, also nominated to the Billboard Latin music awards in the category Best Album pop of group or duet nominated beside Camila, Culture profética and Hillsong in 2011 in which Tercer Cielo presented an award.
