Music is a very important part of how we worship at PBC. The songs that we learn and sing at PBC are chosen to provide a broad sweep of both musical variety and lyrical expression that lead us all to a deeper understanding of God's magnificence (a never ending work!). We love to sing both the rich lyrics and robust theology of hymns from many eras, as well as the clarity and timeliness of many current worship songs.

• We worship with music that could broadly be called an acoustic-pop-rock style. 
  
• We seek to draw from the rich heritage of the Christian church's worship practices while sensitively utilizing the best ideas, songs, language, and amplification technology of the present.
  
• We strive to forge a worship style and a liturgy that is culturally relevant to the San Francisco Bay Area, here in our day and age, while remaining theologically grounded in the revelation of God in scripture.

Sometimes we sing with a quiet reverence, sometimes we sing songs of longing for God's will to be done, sometimes we sing loud songs of celebration! Often we'll do all of these in the same service.

We have two ministry bands that alternate leading music, two Sundays on then two Sundays off, and from time to time we include soloists and small ensembles that enrich our worship with different perspectives including classical, madrigal, and jazz. In all of this variety, the ultimate aim is to give glory to God and build up the faith of all who gather here in worship.
