Christmas is a time when we instinctively embrace what's familiar—music, food, and traditions that help stir up a sense of wonder and celebration. But when we gather to worship, where do we encounter those moments of unexpected togetherness?

The gospel brings everyone to the table. And to celebrate the good news of Jesus’ birth, Peachtree Church has commissioned an original collection of Christmas arrangements titled Christmas Bridges. These are songs that you’ll hear during our Advent services and be able to sing throughout the week—out of the sanctuary and into your world.

And as you worship, we hope that this new collection will help build a bridge from familiar traditions to one you hadn’t expected. Join the musical artists of Peachtree as we worship Christ, the newborn King—together.
