Sardis Methodist Church is a historic church northeast of Pine Grove off Arkansas Highway 128 in Sparkman, Arkansas. The single-story wood frame church was built c. 1895, and is a well-preserved example of a vernacular rural church in Dallas County. The building features a cross-gable roof, an unusual configuration not seen on most of the county's rural churches, and has a pyramid-roofed tower with open belfry at its southwest corner.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
