This Christmas

In the second of three original programming specials, DirecTV once again chose Triple Horse to produce DirecTV's Songs of Praise for Christmas. This 90 minute program brought in the sounds of the season and ran for three years from Thanksgiving until New Year's bringing back for the second time in the series, Nascar celebrity Darrell Waltrip and Amy Grant, multiple Grammy and Dove award winner.

Shot in the historic west end United Methodist church in Nashville, Tennessee, this original program was seen in millions of homes with return guests Michael W. Smith, Nicole C. Mullen and welcoming new guests Rebecca St. James, Mandisa and Mark Hall of Casting Crowns.

The story of the foretelling and the birth of Christ is told by artists and in song from many of the nation's most celebrated choirs. With choral arrangements from around the country the celebration is heralded from California to Texas to Washington, D.C.

This spectacular 90 minute original program remains one of the highest rated in this Songs of Praise series.
