"Schmit says Leap of Faith is a very personal record, one filled with reflections about life, love and everyday circumstance. "Life in motion, but I can't say it's good/And I keep pushing, though a voice inside me says that I should," he sings on "Slow Down," a song that hints at the struggle between complacency and confidence. Regardless, this is an exceptional album, perhaps the best individual effort he's ever offered. In a sense, Leap of Faith reflects both solace and strength".

"Leap of Faith is by-and-large, a competent album. It's slickly produced, the songs have some interesting subject matter, and Schmit has a solid grasp of what makes a country song work, but he just can't seem to make them work over the course of an enitre album. Between the slow tempos, and the mixed quality of the lyrics, the album grows tiring around the midpoint of its 70 minute(!) runtime. Leap of Faith isn't going to turn many people off straight away, but it's hard to remember once it's over".
Vurdering 3/5.
