The Wabash Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) was designed by Dr. James Ford. The church building, which has been in continual service for over 130 years, is one of the oldest religious structures in the county.
Several styles are combined in the design, including Romanesque and Italianate. The façade features an entrance below and arch of compound archivolts and an octagonal belfry with a domical roof. Other notable features include the corbelled cornice, the stone quoins on the corners, circular window of the entry pavilion, and semicircular hood molds over tall, arched windows. The church retains its original stained glass windows and oak-and-walnut pews installed in 1890.
