The First Christian Church is a historic church at 120 East Walnut Street in Paris, Arkansas. It is a T-shaped single-story building, constructed out of stone and concrete between 1930 and 1936 for a congregation of the Disciples of Christ organized about 1890. It is the congregation's second church, the first having been severely damaged by a storm in 1929. It is locally distinctive for its architecture, a basically Collegiate Gothic form with Romanesque details.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.[1]
