Our Story
In 1993, God began to call a group of believers to plant a new church in Buckhead. This new church had a vision to be in the city, for the city, calling men and women to faith in Jesus and to seek the welfare of the city of Atlanta. Since those early days, ChristChurch Presbyterian has grown, planted a daughter church, and after meeting in various buildings, eventually found her permanent home on Peachtree Street in 2014.

Membership
Church membership is all about putting down spiritual roots. Membership at ChristChurch is open to those who profess faith in the Lord Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, and who commit themselves to support the worship, work, purity and peace of the church. In order to help prepare prospective members for this step, we offer a Membership Class several times during the year on Sunday mornings.

Beliefs
As a congregation of the Presbyterian Church in America, we subscribe to the historic Westminster Standards (1647) as our statement of faith.
-
We believe that the Bible is the written Word of God, inspired by the Holy Spirit and without error in the original manuscripts. The Bible is our infallible and divine authority in all matters of faith and life.
-
We believe in one God, who eternally exists in three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit). God is the Creator, Sustainer, and Lord of all things, and worthy of our greatest devotion and obedience.
-
We believe that all people are created in the image of God. Due to our willful rebellion against our Creator, though, all people are sinners and are totally unable to save themselves or even to cooperate with God in efforts to earn their salvation.
-
We believe that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, who became man and lived, died, and rose again to save sinners who trust Him alone for their salvation. He is the only mediator between God and man. Salvation is by God’s grace alone, who saves those He draws to Jesus by His Holy Spirit. He convinces them of their sin and enlightens them so that they repent of their sins and trust in Jesus Christ as He is offered freely in the Gospel. Because God alone knows who are His, we call on people everywhere to repent and to trust in Jesus Christ.
The Holy Spirit gives Christians the daily strength and wisdom they need to walk according to His will and to grow in holiness. At the end of the age, Jesus Christ shall return to judge all mankind and to receive His people unto Himself.
