The Road is the first studio album by Contemporary Christian-Worship musician Tricia Brock, released on June 7, 2011 by InPop Records.
Allmusic's William Ruhlmann said "Brock turns overtly to Christian worship" on the album.
Alpha and Omega News Ken Wiegman graded the album an A, and said "Tricia Brock shows a more tender side with her solo debut." He said "The entire album is enjoyable from start to finish". He wrote the album "is a solid 11 tracks of beauty," and said "is the most amazing personal worship album this year."
CCM Magazine's Matt Conner said the album contains "beautiful melodies, immediate hooks, and resonate lyrics pervading Brock's solo debut, The Road, make the album an instant hit. Beginning to end, The Road is a dynamite release and this large bandwagon is intended for far more than Superchick fans already in-house."
Christian Manifesto's Lydia Akinola said "Maybe that’s the issue – although on the whole, the travelling is smooth on The Road, the journey is susceptible to the same potholes and bumps as other worship projects. A few less average covers and a few more songs born out of her honest encounters with God, and we’ll be willing to follow Tricia Brock on any path, or even road, she’ll take us."
Christian Music Review's Mike Laxon said "presents itself as a way for her to share another side of herself and her desire to serve not only the hundreds of thousands of teenagers who look up to her from Superchick fame, but for all the new listeners she will gain with her talented vocals and heart for ministry."
Christian Music Zine's Tyler Hess said "Tricia Brock’s solo debut walks the same tired path of contemporary Christian music, with few songs that evoke creativity or excitement from song to song. There just aren’t any hits on here to blow the mind."
Christianity Today's Joel Oliphint said "Brock creates an album chock full of singalong worship anthems as epic as they are predictable."
cmaddict's Kevin Thorson said "Tricia aims to encourage, inspire, and give hope to as many as she can" with respect to The Road. Thorson wrote "The message is encouraging and the total focus of the album. It's quite obvious from this album and her work with Superchick that Tricia has a heart to fight for the lost and to show them to a place of hope and peace in God. "The Road" is a great work of inspiration coming from a kind heart. 'If I have one purpose to fulfill during my time on this earth, it's to bring someone closer to God through the love and compassion that He's given me...' says Tricia. "The Road" is an excellent release and great worship album for all Superchick fans."
