Library

Discover new books at our own church library!

 

We are excited to host an open library to provide resources that support personal and spiritual growth and transformation for all ages of the Third community. The library can be accessed whenever the church is open and has separate sections for children and adults.

Currently, our inventory prioritizes books that help with the study and understanding of the Bible and Christian theology, as well as books that address key aspects of a vital, dependent relationship with Jesus Christ, the history of the church, and the church’s mission and strategies to accomplish it.

Checking out a Book

All books are checked out in-person at our Regency library. In order to check out a book though, you will need to become a patron of the library first. In May 2023, all Third Covenant partners and regular attenders (with an active email address) received a message with their patron number. You will need to use your patron number and password to scan a book to check it out— instructions will be included at check-out. Check-out periods are for one month, but you’ll receive a reminder to return the book before the borrow period is up.

If you have not received an email with your patron ID, please contact Sterling Lloyd.

Donating to the Library

We are grateful to receive donations of books and/or money to procure more! To donate, please contact Drew Cleveland.

The library team reserves the right to select what volumes will be added to the inventory.
