Speaking of Treehouses

The Minister's Treehouse took 11 years to build, and it was completed without any previous design or blueprints. Around 10,000 square feet in size, The Minister's Tree house, in Crossville, Tenn., was intended to simply be a tree house until it became a church when builder Horace Burgess gave his life to God.

Churches come in many shapes and sizes. From inflatable houses of worship to churches that can be parachuted into areas of combat, the diversity of building design is certainly intriguing. And to add to the mix, today, we bring you the highly uncommon tree house chapel.
The 100-foot building, called The Ministers Treehouse, was built in Crossville, Tennessee, over a period of 11 years. Unlike other houses of worship that are meticulously plotted and blueprinted, this particular building was constructed without any solidified plans.
Rather than stain-glass windows and perfected structure, it features wooden panels and is built you guessed it around seven trees. Inside, the church is about 10,000 square feet, but its exact dimensions arent known.
