Those who are interested in New Testament Greek but don’t take up the challenge of learning it don’t do so because they don’t believe it’s doable. I, for sure, was one of those people. For so long I dreamed of what it would be like to be able to open the Greek New Testament and read, but I didn’t take a step toward making that happen because I didn’t think I was capable of it.

I was wrong…really wrong.

It wasn’t because I’m some secret biblical language savant. It’s hilarious to me to even think that! I’d say I’m probably pretty close to average when it comes to learning Greek. The wonderful thing is that the times are great for us average folks to learn Greek (or Hebrew, for that matter) because we have access to resources today that just weren’t around 10-years ago.

You don’t have to enroll in a college or seminary to learn Greek. In fact, all you would need to do is purchase one textbook and carve out a few months this spring to dig in at Living Waters Church.

In just over 3.5 months, you could know enough Greek to understand all the vocabulary and grammar of probably the most famous gospel opening: Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος, καὶ ὁ λόγος ἦν πρὸς τὸν θεόν, καὶ θεὸς ἦν ὁ λόγος. οὗτος ἦν ἐν ἀρχῇ πρὸς τὸν θεόν. I won’t tell you where this is from yet, you’ll have to take that step forward to find out!

If you’re interested in learning Greek, reach out to me. I’d love to chat about it with you to see if it would make sense for you to take some time this spring in a class to really give it a shot.
