, performed the song "Jesus Freak" during Winter Jam in Nashville, Tennessee.

In June 2010, Kevin Max twittered that he was trying to arrange a reunion tour for "perhaps" 2011.

On August 3, 2010 "Jesus Freak" was released as a download to the Rock Band store. The song has a "Supervision Recommended" rating. The Rock Band store states that "Supervision Recommended" tracks "may contain suggestive lyrics and the infrequent use of strong language," and the song is not playable in LEGO Rock Band due to the rating.

In October 2010, Kevin Max discussed the prospect of new DC Talk music. He admitted that he would love to make more music but he thinks "that time has passed us by..." He then explained, "as individuals we are so different in our approaches that it might be quite a process." Kevin expressed interest in a reunion tour for the fans.

In January 2011, TobyMac stated that a reunion tour would probably happen "sooner or later.” He mentioned talking with Michael and Kevin about "when it should be" and "what it could look like." Fans hoping for a reunion tour in the near future may be disappointed: "Right now, I think we’re really just enjoying the mountain we’re climbing, each of us individually. It’s never been a completely closed door. We’ve always sort of laughed about it, smiled about it. It’s timing, I guess."

On May 28 and 29, 2011, at the Big Church Day Out in Wiston, UK, Toby joined the Newsboys twice to perform "Jesus Freak", and Michael sang "In the Light" on both days with Toby's band, Diverse City.

In June 2011, Toby admitted that he thought about Kevin and Michael for every song that he writes. His song “Wonderin’” is about his past with Kevin and Michael in DC Talk. “It’s just a warm look back at DC Talk,” says Toby, almost wistfully. “It’s reminiscing about Michael and Kevin and what we did together, and recognizing their influence on me. I love what I do today, but there are times when I wonder, What if we stayed together? I’ve got these dreams I’m pursuing now, but are they stealing me from you?”

On June 7, 2011, Back 2 Back Hits was released featuring songs off Jesus Freak and Supernatural.
