Sedona's Chapel of the Holy Cross comes to mind.

The interior is Okay but the location perched on a cliff is cool

Also a lot of the Mormon temples are interesting. They arent quite modern, but the arent exactly classical.

Unique but in a good way.

Gilbert Az Mormon temple:

Arizona sunsets dont hurt either

St. Louis has a ton of MCM churches and synagogues. Many of them are graced with stained glass windows made by St. Louis' prominent Emil Frei Associates glass company (http://emilfrei.com/).

https://www.builtstlouis.net and http://www.beltstl.com/ are a couple of good but incomplete resources.

"Coolest modern churches in the world" is pretty subjective I suppose but here are a few of my favorites from around St. Louis:
