As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.
Proverbs 27:17
At Church of the Servant, we believe that becoming a fully committed follower of Christ involves more than simply coming to worship each week. It is a three-fold process that involves worship, service, and small group experiences. One way to get involved in a small group is by joining one of the several Bible and book studies offered each fall and spring. Consider becoming a part of one of these classes, and you will enjoy great teaching, discussion, and prayer while building friendships that enrich your life.

Advent Bible Study
For Men & Women | 3-Week Study
Wednesdays, 4:00 PM in Classroom 12 or 6:30 PM in Community Hall
Led By Rev. Nathan Oney
Wednesdays, 4:00 PM in Classroom 12 or 6:30 PM in Community Hall
Led By Rev. Nathan Oney
Join Pastor Nathan this Advent for a look at Advent: A Wandering Journey, a three-week adult study exploring how we can prepare our hearts for Christ’s arrival. Through Scripture, thoughtful conversation, and practical reflection, we’ll explore three themes: Watching, Waiting, and Walking.
We’ll begin by watching for God’s presence in a world marked by both brokenness and hope and by considering how our faith calls us to participate in God’s work of justice and peace. We’ll then explore how waiting can become sacred preparation rather than wasted time and learn to trust God amid uncertainty. Finally, we’ll reflect on how Jesus walks alongside us and how we can offer that same presence, compassion, and care to others.

Looking for a Bible Study? There is a seat for you on Tuesday morning! There's coffee and a donut, there's good
company, and there's an open Bible on the table. It's an hour that sets the week down on a solid footing before it gets
away from you.
We started back up on Tuesday, August 18, in the second half of Isaiah. This is the part of the book that turns toward hope— toward the Messiah who was coming. You already know one of its lines even if you've never opened Isaiah: "They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles." We're going to spend the fall finding out what stands behind those words. There's nothing else quite like it in Scripture.
If you're new, this is the right morning to come. We open by walking back through what's come before, so no one starts out behind. You don't need to have read a page. Just come.
There are two sessions, same study, same morning.
Bring a Bible. That's all you need. The dollar covers the coffee and the donut, and the fellowship is free. We'll be in Isaiah through February, and then we take up the Gospel of Mark in the spring and finish it by summer. Come once and see how it sits with you. My guess is you'll be back. We will meet in Community Hall for both studies.

All believers receive the Holy Spirit as a pledge from God when they say “YES” to Jesus as their Lord and Savior. But who is this Holy Spirit; what is His role in the believer’s life; How does He empower us to live for Christ and how does He fit in with the Trinity.
Miracles . . . boldness . . . courage to preach the Word of God. Do you want this power, power to witness for Christ in hostile circumstances - your workplace, maybe even your home? Learn how to depend on the power of the Holy Spirit from the Lord's dynamic work among first believers.
16-week Study. Six days of guided lessons, 20 to 30 minutes long, help and teach you how to discover God's precepts, purposes and promises for your life. In addition, we will also be viewing a video each week on who the Holy Spirit is and why He was given to those who have surrendered their lives to Christ.
There is a commitment to read a weekly chapter, table discussion, video, and a presentation/review by the leader.
