The library/resource center is a ministry of First Baptist Church, Wylie. Our ministry is to promote the spiritual, emotional and intellectual development of individuals, family and church groups. The library contains Bible study helps, doctrinal studies, Christian living and devotional books, books and items on establishing and maintaining a Christian home, Christian witness and evangelism tools, books for youth, children and preschool, biographies and fiction.
