Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

Disciples of Christ

"The Disciples" is the common name of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) denomination which developed in its current form in 1906 when progressives of the Church of Christ left to form the Disciples of Christ allowing musical instruments and missionary societies. Freedom of interpretation and weekly communion are practiced but faith in Christ as Lord is their only requirement.
