Critical reception

James Christopher Monger of AllMusic wrote that the album "puts the emphasis on the contemporary in CCM with an 11-track collection of inspirational, self-penned dancefloor jams (and one lovely ballad in the first single, "Be Still"). Simple, upbeat, and radio-ready, Becoming is a relentlessly positive and catchy set from one of the genre's most reliable talents."[2]
