What do you get when you mix a 185-foot steeple, a Civil War construction delay, a lecture from Sojourner Truth, and a bell with New York swagger? You get the First Presbyterian Church of Coldwater — a Romanesque Revival legend that’s been standing tall (literally) since the 1860s. In this episode, we’re diving into Coldwater’s architectural pride, feminist guest stars, and why one donor basically said, “Build it big enough to be seen from Indiana.” Church has never sounded this iconic.
