The First Methodist Church Christian Education Building is a historic religious educational facility at 1100 Central Avenue in Hot Springs, Arkansas. It is located just south of the First United Methodist Church. It is a two-story Modern L-shaped building, with the interior of the L defined by a curving two-story colonnade, which frames a small park between the southernmost part of the building and the adjacent church. The street-facing facade of the building is adorned by a mosaic depicting Jesus Christ. Built 1963–65 to a design to Arkansas architect I. Granger McDaniel, it is an excellent local example of Mid-Century Modern design.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2016.[1]
