Alabaster Box isn't a box-set package devoted to CeCe Winans, but rather her third non-Christmas solo album, and the first for her own Wellspring label. It's a return to her gospel roots, in contrast to the straight-ahead urban soul of Everlasting Love, and it's a triumphant one. Winans sounds invigorated by the spiritual material, delivering committed performances and commanding vocals. The production sounds very contemporary, if a little slick at times, but that's not likely to bother most fans. Alabaster Box is an excellent album from a terrific talent. ~ Steve Huey, All Music Guide
An incredible album, my favorite of CeCe's. It is so encouraging and uplifting. The whole album points to Christ, and specifically to his last days. It is a fitting testament for every day of the year, but especially bringing to mind communion and Holy Week.
