Track by track notes
- "Jesus Is Just Alright"
See the main article for Jesus Is Just Alright (Doobie Brothers version) and Jesus Is Just Alright (dc Talk version) The "Techno Mix" arranges the song to a techno beat as the title implies. The "Retro Mix" adds a disco flavor. Each of these versions was remixed by Scott Blackwell for this release.
- "Luv Is a Verb"
"Luv Is a Verb" was remixed by The Gotee Brothers and was given a strong percussion-based treatment. The Gotee Brothers was composed of Toby McKeehan, Todd Collins, and Joey Elwood. This partnership eventually became Gotee Records, which represents major artists such as GRITS, Relient K, and Family Force 5.
- "The Hardway"
For the music video, dc Talk opted to use a slightly-different mix for "The Hardway" than the version originally featured on Free At Last. This was the first official release of the version used in the video. This version was also included on Intermission: the Greatest Hits in 2000.
