The Second Christian Church was organized in 1901 as a mission of the First Christian Church on the East Side. Its first building was replaced in 1915-1916 by a brick temple front church. The three central bays are flanked by columns, while the unadorned outer bays contain the entrances. The temple-front form was popular for Protestant congregations that stressed outreach and evangelism. After World War II, it became the Cedar Christian Church. It was sold to the Maranatha Church after the 2008 flood.
