HISTORY of the Disciples of Christ (DOC)
The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) was founded in the early 1800's
in the United States. Seeking to move beyond denominational disagreements,
the founders envisioned a united church of Jesus Christ modeled on the New Testament.
 
Key persons in the development of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ):
 
Barton W. Stone         (1772 - 1844)
Thomas Campbell        (1763 - 1854)
Alexander Campbell    (1788 - 1866)
 
Today our nearly 3,800 congregations still share those characterstics.
