"The Hodgenville Christian Church began with services conducted under the shade of an oak tree in the yard of J.W. Gore, weather permitting. In 1872 a group of 40 people met in the courthouse and organized the Hodgenville Christian Church. Soon a church building was constructed and completed in 1877. The church is the oldest standing building on the square. The wood cross behind the altar and above the baptistery was carved from the Boundary Oak tree that stood as a property marker at Sinking Spring Farm where Abraham Lincoln was born."
