It has a regular display of portrait and biographies of older ministers who made an impact on Baptist churches in Texas.

The artifacts contained in the Antiquity Encounter Museum at Texas Baptist represent many civilizations. The museum has been called a “world class museum” and includes items from Dr. John Melancon’s archeology work, items purchased for the museum and an occasional donation of Biblical items. Some of the items are extremely rare and are not seen outside of major museums.
