Established in 1882, the same year Howard County was formally organized, this congregation began with seven charter members and first held worship services in the home of Mr. and Mrs. I. D. Eddins. Its first pastor was The Rev. J. Wright. Members built a small frame sanctuary at 305 Gregg, but as the congregation grew, new facilities were built on Scurry Street and later at this site. For over a century, under the direction of several prominent Disciples of Christ leaders, First Christian Church has been a vital force in Big Spring.
