Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)

The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a mainline Protestant Christian denomination in the United States in the Reformed tradition. It is often referred to as The Christian Church, The Disciples of Christ, or more simply as The Disciples. The Christian Church was a charter participant in the formation of both the World Council of Churches and the Federal Council of Churches (now the National Council of Churches), and it continues to be engaged in ecumenical conversations.
The Disciples' local churches are congregationally governed. In 2008 there were 679,563 members in 3,714 congregations in North America.〔(Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) - The Association of Religion Data Archives )〕 As of 2012, their Yearbook & Directory claims 625,252 members in 3,627 congregations.〔Howard E. Bowers, ed. ''Yearbook & Directory 2012 of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ)'' (Indianapolis, IN: Office of the General Minister and President, 2013), 552-53.〕
==History==
The name, Disciples of Christ, is shared by two groups, The Churches of Christ and the independent Christian churches and churches of Christ. They emerged from the same roots.〔McAlister and Tucker (1975). Page 29〕 The Stone-Campbell movement began as two separate threads, each without knowledge of the other, during the Second Great Awakening in the early 19th century. The first of these two groups, led by Barton W. Stone began at Cane Ridge, Bourbon County, Kentucky. The group simply called themselves ''Christians''. The second, began in western Pennsylvania and Virginia (now West Virginia), led by Thomas Campbell and his son, Alexander Campbell. Because the founders wanted to abandon all denominational labels, they used the biblical names for the followers of Jesus that they found in the Bible.〔McAlister and Tucker (1975). Page 27〕
