Greek in a Week! 


For those who want to learn NT Greek from scratch or brush up on old knowledge.

Led by: Revd Dr Roger Walton;
Cost £50 plus cost of basic text book;
Venue: Trinity Methodist Church Duckett Street Skipton BD23 2EJ ; 
Daily 9.30am-4pm. 

This 5 day course aims to get you started with the Greek language of the New Testament, to gain a basic vocabulary and to introduce you to Greek grammar. By the end of the week you will be able to:

  • read passages of the NT with the help of a dictionary; 
  • use commentaries on the Greek text; 
  • identify issues in translation and exegesis; 
  • use some of the techniques for studying the Greek Text. 
The week will not make you an expert nor will it cover all you need to read the New Testament fluently but it should provide a good foundation for learning NT Greek, on which you can build with the course text book. It will also give you a flavour of reading the text in the original language and will be fun!

Introductory Evening 7-9pm 10 August 2015
Venue:  Trinity Methodist Church Duckett Street, Skipton, BD23 2EJ

May message from the Ministry Team

Dear friends One of the ‘deep wells’ that replenishes my spirituality is the practice of ‘Lectio Divina’ which is an ancient method for praying with the Bible. It literally means ‘divine reading’, or ‘reading in a godly kind of way’. We rush about so much these days and practising the discipline of a slower reading of the Bible to allow it to speak to us is an integral aspect of Lectio Divina. If you want to try it yourself, read slowly a short passage of text that you have decided upon in advance, letting your awareness rest in turn upon each word. As you read, be alert for any particular word or phrase that draws your attention in a special way. Then meditate on this word or phrase, allowing it to engage you fully. Does the word connect with some aspect of your own experience? As you hold this in your heart, let yourself become aware of any answering words, images, or memories that arise in you. Then finally respond through prayer to the word you have heard, simply and directl...
