During the 1850s a number of families from the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) settled in the Commerce area and began worshiping together. Services were held in the schoolhouse built on land purchased from William Jernigin in 1872 and later in the Union Church erected in 1880 on Live Oak Street. The Christian Church of Commerce was formally organized in Nov. 1890 during evangelistic services conducted by the Rev. A. C. Henry. The congregation purchased this property in 1891 and completed its first church building in 1893.
