Critical reception

Upon release, Down to Believing received positive acclaim from critics. Uncut Magazine wrote that "Out of the pain and anger, Moorer has fashioned the finest album of her career" [8] while AllMusic wrote it was "an emotionally raw yet aesthetically fine album. She may have reached into the depths for these songs, but she's delivered us the gift of a burning light."[2] Thierry Côté of Exclaim! wrote that "even in the rare moments when the production comes dangerously close to generic modern country sheen, Moorer's voice remains a warm, unwavering instrument and the songs are never less than deeply affecting and emotionally resonant."
