At the center of the nation’s heartland sits Kansas and the Kansas Region of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Though most people imagine little more than wheat fields, our topography is as varied as the state is broad, encompassing wide-open prairies, rolling hills, and the largest remaining grassland area in the U.S. – the scenic Flint Hills.
